 Embellishing these pillows was so much fun that

I made a couple to share with friends to welcome fall!

While I love decorative seasonal pillows, storing them on the off-season can be a challenge . . .

pillow covers to the rescue!

They can be stored flat and they’re also affordable!

 I loved the colorful images of these pillow covers in a set of 4 and

this single ‘Hello Fall’ pillow cover.

This Pumpkin Patch Farm Pillow had lots of appeal,

reminding me of trucking to the pumpkin patch . . 

And a recent visit to a new favorite pumpkin patch. . .

Can you see who’s behind the wheel?

I think his driver’s licenses is expired. . . ;)

Embellishing a pillow to add some dimension and put your personal stamp on it is super easy!

You can embellish as much or as little as desired.

I shared the easy how-to for an early fall pillow project, but if you missed it,

here are the easy steps and tips.

I purchased some fall floral picks that were 40% off at Michaels . . .

some burnt orange sunflowers and fall leaf picks. The flowers should pull right off of the stems,

if not, cut them off along with any leaves you want to use.

I cut the back of the flower stem so it would sit flat and be easier to glue.

I also had some cheery yellow sunflowers left over from my previous pillow project.

I used a hot glue gun to attach my materials.

Glue your materials to your pillow cover after arranging them where you like them best.

Note: Be sure to use a silicone heat resistant mat, placing it inside the pillow cover,

so you don’t accidentally glue the top and bottom of the cover together

while attaching your embellishments.

I decided to add some black and white check ribbon to the pillow that I had in my stash.

To keep the cut ends of the ribbon from fraying,

I used Fray Check, a clear liquid seam sealant to secure the thread ends.

Follow the manufacturer’s directions, using in a well ventilated area,

 testing on a scrap piece of ribbon first.

 Apply to cut end of ribbon to prevent from fraying and allow to dry 15 -30 minutes. 

 I cut a couple green leaves from the orange sunflower picks to make smaller leaves.

Attach your materials, add your pillow insert and . . . ta-da. . .

an embellished pillow cover!

A quick and easy craft project to welcome fall!
