Papa's Pin Cushion 6x6 inches Oil on Canvas Panel by George De Chiara Click here to bid. Opening bid just one cent. When setting up yesterday's still life, Lost Buttons, I pulled out this pin cushion, but it just didn't fit in with the set up I had so I put it aside for today. My wife's grandfather (Papa) built this in his work shop a few years ago. He's quite the wood worker and loves to share the things he builds with everyone in the family, and, of course, we love to get them. Almost every room in our house has something he has built, like wooden puzzles and night lights for our little girl's room, wooden bowls in the dinning room, candle holders, and even our Christmas tree is decked out in custom hand-made ornaments every year thanks to him.
