I wanted pillows for my porch to tie things together, but (shocker) I didn’t want to spend any money on them. So this is what I came up with. I had an old chair cushion in the linen closet.
I rolled it up and used the chair ties to secure it. Wa-la. A bolster pillow. Okay, so it didn’t look that great and Hubby gave me the look he gives when he’s trying not to hurt my feelings. It wasn’t really working, but you have to give me points for creativity at least!
Wow. I love these guys so much, I’m not sure I want them getting dirty outside. Maybe they should reside here instead. No. They are much safer outside. Just after taking this picture, I had two little boys descending upon them like serial-pillow-killers. Run pillows! Be cute while you still can…
Hi, I have used transfers for numerous projects in the past. Today, I used this to transfer directly onto a drop cloth which I made into a pillow for Christmas. I am wondering if you know how durable they are in relation to leaning against them; just general use. Thanks so much for any input,
Hi Sharon! It won’t run through the washer well but general everyday use should be okay as long as the transfer doesn’t have any lifted corners.
Those are awesome pillows. I really like your website for ideas.
Thanks so much Debbie :).

They're all gorgeous, but I LOVE the French bee number pillow. Do you happen to know the name of that font?
Stephanie, I found the "H" at scrapblog.com. Thanks so much for stopping by!
And I forgot to have the comments emailed to me…so here I am again!
Just found your blog – such cute pillows, but where did you find your H monogram? I've been looking online for weeks for a monogram that I liked….
I am including your link to a dropcloth inspiration blogpost at http://www.greengraciehome.blogspot.com. Thanks for the creativity!
I am trying to copy at this very momment but the French Bee appears to be gone… (sniff, sniff). Does anyone know where I might find it on the web? Great pillows, btw! Pure genius!!
Try the Garden Fairy
I've been dying to try these. Your's are darling. Can you tell me a little about scrapblog? Please. I'm I love with all your projects to be honest. They are fresh ideas.
So– you know (if you saw my status a few days ago) we are waiting to hear on bid #3… a really cute house w/ a cute front porchy thing and lots of room for decorating….I'm ignoring all your ideas until I can use then in my HOME!! I promise to send you pics– and place my orders then 🙂 Sometimes it's not about being "unable".. but being "unwilling" to create 🙂 thanks for being FABULOUS!!! (along w/ your pillows of course!)
Wo. man. Where do you get the energy? For real. Those are amazing. You are amazing. And you really got me with the run pillows joke. Hilarious.
what is "stitch witchery"? Sounds like something i need to know more about. Those cushions are gorgeous – very hard to pick a favorite!
#1. I am so madly in love with those pillows! Every picture, I kept saying, "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!"
#2. Yes, that is perhaps the worst tutorial ever. You lost me at "I bought…" Either FB me or do a whole other post on this, 'cause it's totally worthy of one! They're just adorable, Beth!
