Designing and creating on a simple budget.

An Inspired DIY Fringed Pillow

February 2, 2017 Uncategorized

I will show you you how to make an inspired DIY fringed pillow!

A childs bedroom with white and pink bedding and delicate finged pillow on the bed

Hello friends and welcome back! This week felt like it flew by and it was a good one! I got a little time to refuel and if I’m being honest, I struggle with doing that sometimes. I love taking care of those around me and forget that I have to take good care of me too – so this week was definitely good for my soul!

Now onto this sweet project… Earlier this year I came across this pillow at Urban Outfitters and I loved it. It had my favorites – texture + neutrals! It wasn’t in the budget, so I went to making my own version.

Here is how easily you can make one as well! You will need:

Scissors, white thread, fringe and a pillow laid out.

  • Fringe Trim (amount will depend on what size pillow you use)
  • Thread
  • Sewing Machine (but you could do this by hand with needle and thread instead if you wanted)
  • Sewing Pins
  • Scissors
  • Pillow Cover

Here is how you will make the cover…

Scissors and the delicate fringe.

  • Layout the fringed trim facing out. And then begin cutting to size…

Pinning the fringe onto the fabric.

  • As you cut, make sure to also pin so that it stays in place. I separated the three rows of trim on each side about an inch from the beginning and end (as seen above).

Using the sewing machine to sew the fringe on.

  • Carefully sew down the edge of the trim (stitching and back stitching at the beginning and end).

The pillow with the fringe on it.

There you have it!

It makes such a fun statement for a low cost.

I have moved it all over our house but it has been my favorite in Everly’s room lately.

Mixing a little bit of delicate elegance with organic texture is always a good idea!

I hope you enjoyed this easy project and maybe you will try it out yourself one day too!

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I always appreciate it~

    Think I would have to do this using the iron on tape since I’m not too good at the sewing stuff, lol. Might even try some hot glue! Sure do like this idea and plan on using it!

The board and batten design is from @anitayokota after I saw how she used it in her pretty bedroom I knew this would put a fun modern spin in the hallway. Some fresh paint, an affordable vintage rug and updated lighting completed this long dark space. Covering popcorn ceilings will come next, but I hope this shows how a little trim and paint go a long way when working on spaces! 🌿

Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out dressed sorta matching this morning 😂 This girl knows what she likes and asked to have her pink room transformed with blue... And you know when you give a mouse a cookie... 🍪 (Clearly I am the mouse 🐭 in this story 🤣) We finished up the new bead-board wall (I have trim touch up to do still) and then we are finishing spraying her little desk this afternoon. A couple vintage pieces are on the way, but otherwise I have been shopping the house for this little makeover. It’s all still in progress, but getting closer! And you all... This room is small!! So I am going to share how we tackle storage in this space so stay tuned in stories... 💕
Ever since I was little I can remember my dad tell Ever since I was little I can remember my dad telling me (who is a contractor/designer) the importance of using 3’s 💕. Now as I have made our own home, I almost always use the rule of 3’s whenever I am decorating. That goes for coffee tables, nightstands and more... I’m talking all about it and showing you some examples in stories today! And even more fun is that @boutiquerugs is offering 60% off with the code - ZEVYJOY60 ! This is the new rug we added from their collection to our bedroom here! So enjoy and have fun looking around at all their pretty selections... #boutiquerugspartner
You all know how I feel about pillows by now, don’t you?! 😂 Well in case you don’t... I think they are the best! They pull a space together affordably and make things cozy of course! You can trade them out or just keep adding to them (which is what I like to do 😉). And let’s face it, you can never have too many... Am I right? They are your artistic canvas in home decor and in my opinion there aren’t many rules to follow in the fun of mixing and matching them either! 🌿
Best of all, I’ve teamed up with 7 talented accounts to share how we used pillows to style our spaces. Head on over and check out what they’ve done... @thegingerhome
