Make a Bird Covered Pillow

by on Aug 24, 2010

Recently, Jessica from Running with Scissors was the creative guest on U-Create, contributing a tutorial for this beautiful bird pillow. She was inspired by some quite expensive alternatives that clock in at $125 to $135 a pop. Jessica’s DIY alternative would set us back about a SIXTH of that. Anyhoo, here is what she used:

  • a 16″ x 16″ pillow form (Jessica found hers at a yard sale for a dollar!)
  • 1/2 yard main fabric
  • scraps for applique leaves
  • freezer paper or printable freezer paper
  • fabric paint
  • 1/2 yard decorative trim
