Project: Couch Pillows
Project: Couch Pillows
We got a couch for about $100 for our new apartment, but the pillows were horrific. I watched a "pocket pillowcase" tutorial and was able to use the filling from the old pillows. The floral fabric was reversible (shiny grey and floral grey), so I used that and a turquoise for the color pallet to match the dull grey.
Supplies:
Cotton stuffing from old pillows
Fabric

Before. Enough said. |
Project: Headboard #1
This was my first headboard project. Our church has a yearly Junk-a-tique that has more awesome stuff than one can fathom. I found this headboard for $10. There was like 7 of them and I should have bought them all. As you can see I had to sand it down to bare bones. Painted then lined with my favorite fabric. This fabric was also used at our wedding as the portrait studio backdrop (re-using is always great in crafty world). This was NOT what I had in mind originally but I love how it turned out.
Supplies:
Headboard
Sandpaper
Favorite fabric
Tacky brand Fabric adhesive
Paint
Excuse the AWFUL Photo. I shall retake soon! |
