Sweater and No Sew Pillows

I bought these pillows at CTS for 6.99 each
They are huge and I love the BUTTONS
plus
They match my plaid curtains that I got at Walmart for 9.99 per panel
I was STALKING the curtains for MONTHS until one day they went HALF OFF!
Back to the pillows
They measure 16x16
I LOVE THEM!
I know I should not love inanimate objects but these are ADORABLE
I really needed an accent pillow to go along with this change to my living room
I was shopping yet again at $General and happened upon this floral print... in pillow cases!
I DO NOT SEW...
but I also did not pass up this set of pillow case for 5 bucks
While I was standing in the aisle I decided to split the case in half and cover the 4 plaid pillows
I used to have in the living room I did not actually do this in the aisle... I did it when I got home
I used wonder under to secure the cases and pushed the pillow into the case and then sealed it with wonder under AGAIN
I was a sight let me tell you... totally NOT the way to do it... I believe that the NESTER calls it mistreatment's...
is it or ALL fabric projects that don't follow the rules?
Check out her inspirational blog here... shown is th plaid pilow I covered with the pillow case I createdAnywhooo... here is my finished couch
I love it... or maybe I am just proud to be able to do something like making pillow without screaming
"MOMMMMMM HeLp!"
In this picture is our couch with a stack of suitcases in the corner and a Belleek lamp on top
I love the mirror that is hung diagonally... I got the mirror for 7.47 at CTS a few months ago
I tend to pick things up that I like and THEN put them together in a design...
probably not the way I should design... but it works for me, it may take me months but it eventually comes together!
