Embellished Pillows

I've been wanting to use up the rest of my curtain fabric on new pillows for our bed. I bought neutral colored curtains from ikea awhile back and saved the excess I cut off when hemming them. It has worked itself into several projects since then. I'm so glad I thought to save it! Anyway, I had two turquoise pillows on my bed and decided they were too colorful for my now orange headboard. I decided to cut up an old stained lace table cloth and use it to embellish my new pillows. Check it.

First I cut my fabric and sewed the lace onto the front of each pillow. I decided to use the lace differently on each one and I love how they turned out. These pillows are SO simple to make. If you can use scissors and sew a straight line, you can make these. No zippers, no hand-stitching them closed. Click on the link above for the tutorial. 

 I managed to get them on the bed and snapped a few pictures before this happened...

Gotta love 'em. Have a lovely weekend!
