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.

Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been Euro Summer First stop Paris 🇫🇷. It’s been 19 years since I’ve been here and it’s even more magical than I remember! There is something truly special about this city. The architecture, the people, the most amazing pastries, and gorgeous gardens. Showing my family this city was a gift. I experience it in a different way each time and it just keeps getting better.

Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard furniture and decor! Unfortunately, when I get an idea I can’t stop until it’s done 😉. I got an itch to swap out our three chaise lounges for a large U-Shape sectional to create more seating and lounging poolside. I knew there was only one brand who could make this happen… I worked with @polywood to design a sectional that would be a complete custom fit for this little nook. I used the Braxton 6 Seat Sectional and added additional modular seats to get this look. I LOVE how it turned out! They can make anything happen! 

POLYWOOD outdoor furniture is made out of recycled plastics, making it durable in all weather climates. They also have a 20 year warranty.

POV: working with what you have and creating somet POV: working with what you have and creating something completely new! I kept all the original flooring, cabinets, backsplash and fixtures and did only cosmetic updates to update this space. I wanted to add more contrast, character, warmth and texture. By smoothing out the texture of the walls it instantly gave it an updated look, the new paint color added contrast, the wood ceiling added warmth and texture and all the antiques and vintage pieces gave it the charm. 🖤

LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of LAUNDRY ROOM IS DONE ! This was a true example of working with what we have, turning something with great bones into something that is unique, custom and full of character. (Swipe for the before) It now feels like my own little escape to the French countryside every time I do laundry, and I’m not mad about it. 

Comment LAUNDRY for all the details and links!
