Curbly reader Chrissann sent me a link to her awesome DIY pillow idea recently and I am SO glad she did! It is the single most creative (and cute) repurposing project I have ever seen. Also? Her “before and after” photos totally cracked me up:
See? Ha! Anyway, Chrissann had the most brilliant idea of turning her husband’s worn out shirts into these perfectly quirky throw pillows. Aren’t they adorable? Here’s what you’ll need:
- clean, ironed button-up shirts (one per pillow)
- pillow forms
- sewing machine or handheld stitcher
- scissors
- pins
Once you’ve picked out which shirts you’re going to use, check out Chrissann’s how-to over on Ducks in a Row!

Can someone please send me the picture and instructions for the memorial shirts? I saw them and want to make them for my family as my husband just passed away and I can’t find them any more. Please help!
