If you are looking for a fast last minute before your guest
arrive project that you can fit in to your Christmas home
decorating theme, try adding some holiday charm to what you
would call non-holiday sofa style pillows. You know the
ones.
They just lay there on your sofa attracting
no attention,yet taking up valuable space. Well, enough is
enough. Not only will you be able to transform the look of your
current pillows within seconds, you will also have custom
designed pillows that your guests are sure to love.
What is really nice is that thisproject
requires absolutely no sewing whatsoever. So those of you
afraid of needles have no need to worry. Begin by carefully
wrapping a felt ribbon around the front center of your
pillow.
Next, taking a miniature felt-covered
ornament type pillow, attach it to the felt ribbons by tying
the ornament hanger and felt ribbon together. The ornament can
be easily removed for other purposes, like hanging on the
Christmas tree the next year, or attaching to a custom designed
gift bag you might also be creating.
Note: Try using felt ribbon that comes with
bells attached, or different ornament design patterns with
similar felt-covered materials to add texture and interest to
your pillows.
Supplies:
Solid colored sofa pillows (we used a forest
green micro suede pillow (16 in.x 16 in.)
Red felt ribbon with miniature red bells attached (3 ft. x 1
in. w)
1 Red-Miniature felt-covered ornament type
pillow (we selected one with a pine cone and holly design
stitched to the ornament.
