Pillow Wraps
Spring is officially here ! And it has put me in the mood to change the look of patio furniture. What better way than to update cushions and pillows. I have so many pillows and they are still in very good shape. This year I decided I would make Pillow Wraps to add to them . They add just the right touch to my patio and the cost was so budget friendly. I purchased a roll of burlap ribbon from Hobby Lobby
and also used ribbons I already had on hand from prior projects. You can stencil your burlap ribbon or apply premade adhesive letters or sayings.
I love simple sewing projects that have a big impact. And this project is super easy. All you have to sew is the Velcro closure on the ends of ribbon . So it is only 4 seams. When wrapping a 12 inch pillow, you cut your ribbon 30 inches. This gives you plenty of room to adjust your wrap .
Okay, now let’s make one, you’re going to need:
An existing pillow
30 inch ribbon of burlap or any ribbon you like to wrap around your pillow
Fusible Seam Tape or velcro
On the front of the pillow measure how much of the pillow you want covered by the burlap or ribbon, this plus 2” will be the width of your pillow sleeve piece.
Cut and then sew your velcro backing to the each end of the ribbon.
Adhere your premade decal on front of burlap or stencil your saying.
Wrap around your pillow. You are done. You can dress up your patio within 30 minutes for less than 15 dollars. Now that’s a bargain.
