Holly Pillows



I wanted to dress up the Adirondacks chairs we have outside on our porch, and so I decided to make Holly Pillows!

I simply created the pillow cases out of left over beige fabric. Sewed up three of the four sides.
Then I cut green holly leaves and red circles out of felt. I didn't want them to be the same size, I wanted them to look artsy and handmade.
Then I hot glued the felt on to the cases (I could have sewn them on, but I wanted instant gratification in a finished quickly project! hehe).
Then just stuffed the cases with my pillows (which already had permanent cases on them, so these Holly Pillows were just cover up solutions!). Then I hot glued the cases shut!

Now obviously, these aren't permanent solutions. If they were, I would sew more and use outdoor fabric. But considering the cost ($0! since I had every thing already!), and the time (probably about 15 min total!), I think they turned out beautifully and I am happy! yay!
