♥ Happy Memorial Day weekend to everyone in the U.S. and abroad! I hope you all have a wonderful holiday with family and friends! Don't forget to remember and honor those who lost their lives fighting for our country and our freedom and for those who still are! God Bless them all! ♥
Just wanted to share a fun project I made for a contest. The contest was to make a Mother's Day Gift. It was on a wonderful site called Handmade Gifts Made Easy. There are so many gorgeous and inspiring gifts on there for all kinds of events, seasons and holidays! You must check it out! And the owner, Stephanie, well, she is just the sweetest person! I just found out yesterday that I was the 1st place Winner. $100!! Thank you so much again Stephanie! You can see the post HERE.
I made this sweet Pin Cushion/Photo Holder Teacup for my mom. You can find the detailed directions on how to make it, HERE.
I had a lot of fun making it and of course, my Mom loved it!! Anything with my kids pics on though, she just adores!
I also made a Keepsakes Box with a handmade mini photo album for the contest too. You can add pictures to it year after year. You can find the directions on this HERE.
♥ I hope you all understand but due to so many entrants in my giveaway and that it is a busy, holiday weekend for me, I will post my winner on Tuesday. I have so many to still go through. And due to the delay in announcing my winner, I will pick another random winner to receive a little something from me as well! ;) Good luck everyone and enjoy your weekend!! Thanks for being patient with me!! hugs...

Congratulations on winning 1st place! Great prize, but what a wonderful project you made! I love everything about it. Where did you get the spool of thread and the teapot beads? Your stick pins are wonderful. Have a great Memorial Day weekend!
WOW -- this is AMAZING and best of all, such a treasure for your Mom!!! Those stick pins are exquisite and the pin cushion makes me think of my Mom who was a seamstress. Received a new sewing machine for Mother's Day, so really missing her; she'd have loved all we could do with it. Adorable keepsake box too!
Happy Memorial weekend to you Melissa. I hope you have a lovely weekend with your family. The sun is shinning big time......for once in Northern Ireland and it looks like its shaping up to be a beautiful weekend here too, so we are going to make the best of the lovely weather. Melissa this is a gorgeous creation and well done on winning first prize. Its so funny that you have shown this as I bought 2 cup and saucer sets for the very same reason of making them into pin cushions. Ive made one so far and am so pleased with the result. Yours is so pretty and a lovely gift for your Mammy. Enjoy your weekend. Lee x
