Hi, I've just finished these two little projects from Cross Stitcher, I'm not sure what to do with them:
In the magazine this design is a decoration for a pillow, but I've got so many pillows around, what would you do with this instead?
And here's number 2, it should be a needle keeper but I would do a pot-pourri holder instead:
Whatever comes to your beautiful minds, hints are welcome!

I think the first one would be great for decorating a tote-bag, or depending on the size, the cover of a notebook. It is lovely, by the way
I agree with you, the strawberry would be really good as a scented sachet or something similar.

I'm planning on doing that very blackwork projct at some point - possibly for a cushion (or, depending on how much I enjoy it, several cushions!). You've done a lovely job of it and I think it would look lovely on a bag.

A box is a terrific idea!
Thanks, Agi, I'll try to make one myself...
