Vintage Teacup Gingerbread House Worlds

Here is a great way to use up your dinged and chipped teacups and what a better way to recycle and repurpose your vintage and flea market teacups. You can create your own Gingerbread Christmas scene or as Mimi Kirchner, the individual that created the ones pictured here calls them “Gingerbread House Tiny Worlds”.  I could not find a pattern (so these might not be simple to create) but someone with some crafting and sewing skills could probably make one in a couple hours. Just think, a Gingerbread House Tiny World in a heirloom vintage teacup would make such a thoughtful handmade Christmas gift and would make an amazing hostess gift especially if you know the hostess’s china pattern of choice and create a Gingerbread Tiny World for her in that her own china pattern. Charming and sweet!!

For the holidays, why not craft up some sure to please Gingerbead House and Gingerbread Boys pincishions, these will surely be treasured as a delighful handmade gift. I would so love to recive a handmade Gingerbread House pincushion and would treasure it… I would keep it up in my craft room/sewing room always. Visit here for lots of Pincushion patterns.
