THE STORY - Sometimes a certain item maybe of simple conception, but it is that simplicity and the quality of the workmanship that makes it so special and that is certainly true of this Pincushion. The Pincushion is made from one half of an empty shell of a Walnut, with a plump cushion covered with a wonderful emerald green velvet. The Pincushion would I imagine date to the Edwardian Period circa 1910. The Walnut Shell has been varnished and is of most beautiful rich colour. Around the rim of the Walnut there is ring of fine red cord where it meets the velvet. And I absolutely love how plump and rounded the cushion is. Of course because of its rounded bottom the pincushion does not sit flatly but it does sit up, almost offering you your choice of pin. AGE - Circa 1905 CONDITION - The Pincushion is in very good condition. There are no cracks or holes to the Walnut Shell that I can see. The red cord around the rim is still firmly fixed. The green velvet still sits securely into the shell, although it has faded as one would expect with age and it is possible to see some old pin holes from past use. DIMENSIONS (Approx) - Length 1&3/4" / 4.5cm, Height 2" / 5cm, Depth 1&1/2" / 3.5cm So there it is my little pincushion, what it lacks in sophistication it certainly makes for in charm. And the quality of the workmanship is wonderful, even more so I think as it is pretty likely that this pincushion was made by an amateur hand. And I would imagine made with love for it's owner and I am not surprised it has been cherished all these years.

Hello my dear friends, as I was out doing my grocery shopping a few days ago I watched a lady bag some walnuts. I suddenly remembered things I used to do with my younger daughter Caylagh a few years ago. I also remembered how hard it was to crack the walnuts so they would break perfectly in half so I aimed for the empty shells in the bottom of the bin and went home with a little smile on my face and ready to start recreating 'old' ideas. I love the look of the shell, it's color and texture is perfect in every way. When I arrived home I sat down and stared to think of more than one way to use these shells and with my trusty little book to hand I took down notes and sketched what I was hoping to create. The first two projects are just old ideas made new. They are very, very simple but yet so neat. I seem to have a thing with the number three these days. I came up with three ideas just like I did with my cigar box creations. Well, they do say things ~ good or bad ~ come in threes, right?! And now for my first 'in a nutshell' creation ... a pincushion! (I bet you knew that was going to come). I made this one a few years ago with my daughter Caylagh when she was bored one day. It is such a neat and simple little thing and so cute!! This is my pincushion ... I love this because it is so small and just so pretty! I took alot of photo's because I wanted to make sure you could see it from every angle. I am sure many of you have made these already but it is always nice to recreate an old idea from time to time. All you need is a little bit of time and a few small 'ingredients' and in no time you can have a little creation for yourself or a lovely gift. And last but not least ... ... come back tomorrow for my next 'in a nutshell' creation. All I can say right now is that it is a pincushion as well. So, hope to see you there! I hope you are well and life is treating you kind. Have a peaceful and creative day, Karen B.
