Sock Can Pin Cushion

Ingredients:

• Any socks but one with a terry cloth side is preferred because of its softness when folded/rolled.
• Can (Size depending on your requirement. Remove paper labels. Open one side. Make sure there are no sharp edges. File sharp edge if necessary.) In this example, we used a fruit mini-can.
• Scissors
• Glue
• Gift wrapper and ribbon remnant pieces, other decors

Method/Instructions:

1. Roll the sock so that it fits the can with a slight bulge at the top. Make sure the terry cloth side is exposed.

2. Measure the height of the can between the upper and lower tab. Cut a rectangular piece of gift wrapper with a height equal to the measured height. Do not worry about the lenth - you can cut it down later.

3. Paste the rectangular piece of gift wrapper around the can, making sure that it is all covered. Cut the length where appropriate (for example, the design becomes concealed because of the length.)

4. For finishing touches, decorate the can. In this example, a small blue ribbon is glued just below the upper tab. Again, cut the ribbon length as appropriate. A little overlap is good. A small peach ribbon is added where the blue ribbon overlap is. 4 small beads are glued in the middle of the peach ribbon.

No more pins or needles laying around anywhere, waiting to prick you!
