June Cleaver Pink Pearls Pin Cushion

Yesterday afternoon I was on my laptop pinning to my Pinterest Pin Cushion

board while watching Leave It To Beaver reruns on TV.  I know what you 

must be thinking wow can that girl multi-task lol.  I happened to see  pin

cushions of some dresses that were inspired by the book/movie The Help.

I saved the pins to my board and then I started thinking ~

what a cute idea!  And then it dawned on me, why

not make a June Cleaver pin cushion???   You will know it is

June because she is wearing pearls with her apron.

So, I chose some fabric and some felt and started cutting out a pattern.

Then  I had to find something I could use as "pearls" and then I 

remembered a box of Mardi Gras beads that I saved from years ago.

One strand of beads had tiny little beads on the end.  Although not white

like June's pearls would have been, I thought the color pink would go well

with the color of the dress and that somehow June would approve :-)

I thought it turned out to be cute, but then when I stuck some pins in

June, I started to feel a little creepy.  After all, I would never want 

June to think it was a VooDoo doll.  I may be a writer, but I am no

Stephen King lol!

What do ya'll think?  Creepy or cute?

Pink Saturday

I took Bentley for a very long walk last night and he has been a

lounge pup all day today.  But just you wait, he will be all 

refreshed and ready to take another one tonight.  That little

peanut loves his walkies!

Big Texas Hugs,

Susan and Bentley
