Thrifty Thursday: Giant Floor Pillow

 

 

What you will need:

 

 

2 pieces of fabric cut to 30"x30"

4 pieces of fabric cut to 5"x30

Scissors

Poly fill Stuffing

Sewing Machine

Needle & Thread

(I found this How To on Pinterest to help with the process)

 

Step One

Sew the 5"x30" pieces of fabric - one to each of the sides of the 30"x30"

 

Step Two

 

Then sew the second piece of 30"x30" fabric to one side of the 5"x30

 

Step Three

 

Sew the corners together

 

 

 

Do this to all four corners 

 

Step Four

 

Once all the corners are sewn

Sew the "Bottom" piece of fabric to the all sides of the 5"x30"

(To create a "box")

 

Leave a 2"-3" opening on one of the sides- so that you turn can the fabric inside out.

Like this!

 

Step Five

 

Now you are ready to stuff with the poly fill

 

You may remember this pouf I made a while back.

Well... I never finished it.

So I took all the stuffing out of it and used it in my new floor pillow- great way to save a buck right!?

But if you are making such a large pillow like mine- you will probably need at least 3 bags of fill.

 

Step Six

Once you have your pillow fully stuffed, you will need to use your needle and thread to sew up the opening.

 

NOW YOU ARE FINISHED!!

 

 

Now it's time to enjoy your pillow!

 

Total Cost- Around $45 dollars

(I was lucky enough to have all the materials already- so my pillow was free!)

Total Time- One hour

And...

Here is an upcoming DIY

 

I found this on the curb side last night!

Obsessed With: Black & White, Maxi & Print

Here are just a few of my current fav’s.

Anything black & White

This color combination is so powerful. It’s bold but yet still sublet.

I also love when there is just a pop of color- like this

 

The Maxi

 

I’m in love with maxi dresses at the moment. Mostly because I am pregnant and they are so easy and so much more comfortable to wear than pants are.
I’ve been on the hunt for cute, cheap maxis where ever I go.

Fabric  Covered Canvas’s

An inexpensive way to add artwork and color to a room

I have three canvas’s I painted awhile ago that don’t go with the décor I have in this apartment. So I plan to cover them with a fun fabric asap and hang them in my living room.

 

What are you obsessing over as of late?
