DIY! Make your own throw pillows


I love the big statement such a small thing like a throw pillow can make, and I love personalized décor. With only a few simple steps you can create your own pillows in whatever size, shape, color, pattern, etc. that you like!

Step 1: Fold fabric in half, cut out the shape of your choice.




Step 2: Pin the pieces together so they stay in place while you sew.


Step 3: Sew the pieces of fabric together.



TIP: when you come to a corner, lift the foot of your sewing machine while the needle is coming down into the fabric, and turn it to the new direction you need to sew.


Step 4: Leave an opening on the bottom of the pillow close the center.


Step 5: Flip what you've sewn inside out.



Step 6: Fill your empty pillow with stuffing.




When you've filled the pillow to your satisfaction, hand stitch the hole on the bottom.

AND YOU'RE DONE!
