Recycling Can Be Cute

From a can of diced jalapenos to this! A cute holder for bobbins to sit next to my machine and make me smile every time I use it. I loved Lucy's version done in crochet, and then I saw this one at Crazy Mom Quilts. I used up little scraps of Pam Kitty Morning, which I LOVE LOVE LOVE!!  And I adore fabric covered buttons. I could make them all day long :)

And a BIG GIANT Thank You for all of your sweet comments!! Now back to my big project.....

    So cute, I've done similar versions myself and I'm always amazed at what a boring old tin can can be transformed into!!! x

    Adorable. I think you are out-doing both Lucy and Crazy Mom Quilts with this one. :D. I have to make one too. How do you make fabric covered buttons?
