Simple Pillows. Smart Design.

This is a simple, easy breezy way to make designer pillows without a sewing machine and for very little cost.

Placemats! That's right. Fabric placemats make great pillows, all you need to do is find the placemats that have a backing to them. Most department stores carry them and what is even better is that you can buy them individually at a very small cost.

Materials needed:

-seam ripper or scissors
-needle and thread
-placemat
-polyfill stuffing

1. buy your placemats.


Make sure your placements have a backing to them. 
2. using your seam ripper or small scissors, cut a small opening at the bottom of the placemat so that you can stuff your pillow.

3. Stuff your pillow and sew the opening closed with your needle and thread. Keep the stitches small so they aren't as noticeable.


Enjoy your new designer pillows. ♥

All white

Lately, I am just silly over all white rooms. It is hard for me to believe that there was a time that having an all white (or even just white painted walls) was considered boring. An all white room can be chic, relaxing, fresh, rejuvenating, elegant, and by mixing textures and patterns it can be anything but boring.

If all white is too much, throw some color in the mix but keep it minimal to really make a statement.

I am currently working on a dining room design and guess what the dominant color of this room is going to be? That's right! Easy, breezy white, with smidgens of gray and yellow. <wink>

See something you ♥
