DIY Halloween Pillows

It’s time a fun little fall DIY project! For real though, this might take you 20 minutes AND it only cost me $6 which is my favorite kind of DIY Project. So let’s hop right into these DIY Halloween Pillows using tea towels from the Target Dollar Spot! You never know what you are going to find in there!

Also, I’m joining a few friends and we are all sharing Fall DIY Projects using plaid, flannel or sweaters, so don’t forget to scroll down.

DIY Halloween Pillows

Learn how to make these DIY Halloween Pillows using $3 tea towels! Super easy and cute!

DIY Pillows Using Tea Towels

I was browsing through Target with my son and I instantly spotted these Black and White Halloween Bar Towels. Well, I was instantly drawn to the colors but I couldn’t help but think how cute they were. They come in a pack of 2 for just $3! So amazing. I tried to link them for you but I don’t think they put dollar spot items online.

This tutorial is honestly SO simple. Just pack the towels, they the two sides together with ‘right sides’ together and pin.

Sew around three sids but leave one open. Turn the pillow to the right side out and put a pillow insert in! Then sew up the bottom.

I put mine in our outdoor living space. Adds a little touch of Halloween out here. I laid one side with the plaid out and the other with the typography date.

So seriously, instead of having to hand stencil or buy expensive fabric, so just for some festive tea towels at Target or your other fav stores.

Exterior Update! It’s been a long time coming! W Exterior Update! It’s been a long time coming! We had these custom gas copper lanterns made by @bevolo to bring the perfect blend of timeless craftsmanship and character to our beautiful stone and brick exterior. 🤎 they are exactly what we envisioned! STUNNING. From the custom design to the warm, flickering glow after dark, every detail works together to create a look that feels both elevated and inviting. 

We couldn’t be happier with how our custom lanterns turned out. They bring the perfect finish touches to our exterior. My favorite part of our house just got even better. The happiness I feel every time I see them flickering in the night ❤️
