Hairbrush Pin Cushion

Call me crazy, but I’ve always thought that hairbrushes look like pin cushions…anyone agree? Well, they do make very cute pin cushions anyway :) Here’s how I made mine:

Creative Pin Cushions
Hairbrush Pin Cushion
Hairbrush Pin Cushion
Hairbrush Pin Cushion
Creative DIY Pin Cushion Ideas
Pin Cushion Creative Ideas

I mean they could’ve been separated at birth…right?!

    I wish I could “pinterest” this link. I couldn’t. Not even directly to a picture. I really like this pinchushion! I need to dig into my craft dresser to select felts to use…

    I love everything about this! It would also be really easy to add an elastic band for arm-strapping purposes. I, for one, think that walking around my dress form with a hairbrush pin cushion on my bicep would be the height of fashion. ;)

    Hi Sweetie! I followed a “pin” for your pin cushion hairbrush to this blog. However, the tute is no longer visible–and when I clicked on a link, I received a dead link message. Could you please send the pin cushion brush tutorial to my email address–or have you, perhaps, moved your blog to another server/web hosting service?

    I would love to make one of these for each of my daughters (ages 17 and 24).

    Thank you in advance!

          Ah, I remember this! When I wrote my first comment, my daughters were 17 and 24; now they’re 18 and 25! (lol)

          Just giving you grief! I, personally, can’t remember the last time I changed the images on my home page–so I completely understand !

          Thank you for fixing it/re-uploading the tutorial. :) I just took my sewing/embroidery machine in for repair, so now would be an excellent time to make these. :)

          Thank you again! <3
