Hi girls,
i made 2 pinkeeps today, the square one is for my aunt, and the pumpkin one is for me. My husband works at the recycling center in town and is always bringing home things he things I'd like (like that vintage singer sewing machine!)
Anyhow, he brought home the ceramic pumpkin basket the other day, so I made a pinkeep out of fall fabric and stuck it in there. I thought it would be perfect! There are a couple of chips on it, but i don't mind.

Hey Connie,
Cute!!! Good job!!!
I found a white ceramic "basket" with handle that is about 3 inches across that I plan to make into a pinkeep. I plan to use pink ribbon breast cancer awareness fabric . . . to go with the sewing basket my daughter gave me in pink ribbon fabric. (She and I participate in breast cancer events every year!)
Thanks for the pics!

Hi Connie, those are so adorable! I love the heart pins wherever did you find them? I made 8 pinkeeps out of 4oz canning jars for Christmas gifts this year but, yours are way better!!!

Some time ago I talked about some pinkeeps I WAS going to make . . .
Well, it took some time because they weren't a priority just before Christmas.
Here they are: The containers were very inexpensive thrift shop finds. The pink one is in breast cancer pink ribbon fabric that matches the sewing box that my daughter gave me. She and I participate in breast cancer events every year so we are "pink ribbon" girls too!!
Thanks for looking!!!

Hey Toni,
Pack it tight, stitch it tight . . . and GLUE it in the container!!!
By the way . . . the one I sent you is not one of those pictured 
I REALLY like the one I sent you . . . it was hard to part with and I hope YOU REALLY like it. I do have a picture of it I can post if you want me to do it, but I won't do that until after you receive yours!!!

These are all so adorable and inspiring! I love the idea of reusing containers for the pinkeeps. Keep on creating! Dianne
