Pillows can be pricey! Cute pillows especially! I decided to make my own but I don't like to measure fabric or follow patterns or anything like that. I found some cute cloth napkins on clearance at Pier 1 and decided to make pillows out of them. The front is this floral pattern and the back is just a plain brown napkin.
Talk about easy to sew together. I put right sides together and sewed around the edges leaving some undone so I could turn it inside out. After it was turned inside out and stuffed with a pillow form from an old pillow I didn't like anymore, I hand stitched the few inches that were still open. (You could also just stuff it with batting.) There you go! A cute pillow for about $6. I may add some fringe or something to the edges later, but for now this is it!
Pier 1, TJ Maxx and my favorite, Anthropologie, all have way cute cloth napkins! You may even find some in your linen closet!
Hey, if someone spills, at least I know it's washable!
My 7 year old, Avery said, "That's weird! They don't even feel like napkins!" Love her.
Way cute pillows!!!
