Americana container outside
Americana container inside
This is an 8" diameter
cardboard container which I have painted using acrylics. Inside
the top of the container is a sizeable padded pincushion. I also
made a scissors holder which I've pinned to the pincushion for display
purposes.
This is not only a decorative
Americana box but also serves to contain sewing supplies, knitting or
small sewing projects. Or, if you are a rug hooker it could hold
hooks, scissors, wool strips or snippets; handy but also a decorative
display of Americana.
