Easy Pom Pom Pillow
Once upon a time, like a few weeks ago, there was a green plaid pillow at a popular store that I wanted. And every time I went to that store, I eyed that pillow. I wanted that pillow, and I wanted a blue coordinating pillow to go with it. But those pillows were 20 dollars a piece, and yes, that's a decent price to pay for a pillow, but I really just didn't want to spend money on holiday decor. So instead I made a pillow. And in the end, my pillow turned out to be even cuter than the one in the store.
The pillow that I'm referring to, is this green pom pom pillow in our living room. Have you seen my Holiday Home Tour yet? If not, you can check it our HERE.
So one day I went to JoAnns cloth store with my Mother-in-law and I spotted this green plaid cloth. I bought a yard of it, in conjunction with 4 pom pom tree ornaments. It was all on sale, so I consider my total cost become beneath 10 dollars. Now it's an even higher charge for a pillow!
I came home and whipped up an easy pocket pillow. You can find my pocket pillow instructions HERE. This is my go-to instructions for ALL of the pillows I make, because it really is so simple. No buttons, zippers, or fasteners required.
For this pillow, I used a standard bed pillow because I wanted it to be bigger than your typical throw pillow. I like big pillows!
I actually just safety pinned the pom poms onto each corner of the pillow from the inside. This way I can remove them when I need to throw the cover in the wash.
Tip* These pom poms are absolutely simple to make too, or so I've heard, I've never made them myself. But I'm making a bet you could do a quick how-to look online and discover a tutorial on the way to make some. They could be lovable to add to any pillow.
If you observe my tree carefully, you'll noticed that I used some greater cloth, tied together, to make a simple matching garland.
Oh, and through the way, I even have because visible the 2 pillows from the popular shop in some different blogger's domestic. So that simply is going to say, I wasn't the simplest one eyeing those pillows :)
I'm simply thrilled that I stored a couple of dollars and got here up with something one-of-a-type and festive for our domestic.
So the subsequent time you are eyeing a pillow, perhaps forestall and ask your self if you could sew some thing comparable up for less. And you in no way recognise, yours may just be even higher!
Thanks for stopping by way of,
