FOR TRINKETS AND PINS

Here is a very handy pincushion and trinket-box, quite easy to make. The top of toe box is well padded with cotton wool, and then covered with some pretty remnant of silk, fastened just inside the lid with glue. The sides of the box are covered in a tike manner, and the interior is loosely lined with soft silk. Short ribbon strings chosen of a color to harmonize with that of toe silk are fastened to the lid and front of the box, to secure it when closed.
