Here is a pic of my tea strainer..which I have about 10 of them just like this one. Next few pics is how I make these into a necklace type pin cushion which uses the bottom part of the tea strainer and small one which is the lid of the tea strainer to sit on your sewing table or whereever ya put it. I used leftover craft stuff making these into useful items..lol..









Love me like I am. farmgirl #801

How cute and clever! One more thing to add to my garage sale list of things I gotta have. Nice of you to share this, Carol

They can be filled with potpourri and hung in a closet too. I have one decorated with beads and willed with lavendar.

Don't forget the best use of it. Putherbs and small pieces of vegies in it when you need flavor to a broth and don't want pieces. Bonnie
