SUMMER PILLOWS DIY ANOTHER MIKSTANG MADE IT!!!

 Greetings and Happy Sunday. I hope that everyone is having a wonderful and relaxing day.  As we all know that Summer is approaching and if you are like me, then you like to change your decor as the seasons change. So my inspiration came from the photo above that I saw in a magazine. So, I went on a hunt to find the perfect Summer combination that fits my style. My inspiration for my pillows began with this rug that I purchased at five and below. It was $5.00 and I absolutely loved the hunter and kelly green colors on the bay leaves. Now on to the details for the pillows. I purchased these 2 pack pillows forms last Christmas at Joann for $9.99 which is a great deal for 18 X 18 pillow forms. The grey and white pillow form covers was purchased at hobby lobby for $2.50, they were regular $9.99, so I saved about $15.00. For the pillows that I designed I purchased 4 Waverly fat quarters from Walmart for $.97 each. The other two pillows that I designed, the fabric was purchased at Hobby Lobby on clearance for $10.00 a yard and I purchased one yard.  (gray marble color) Other supplies that you may need: coordinating thread, scissors, sewing machine or fabric glue (if you do not sew) and poly fill if you are not using pillows forms. So, I hope that you all enjoyed this post and add some spice to your life for your sofa for the Summer. Have a great week, Mikstang Living.
