Easy Christmas pillows

By the way ~ The Cranberries were AWESOME!!!

Now, onto the pillows lol

I don't have a tutorial but you should get the idea...

I love these so much that I look for more every year!

You can go to big lots or ebay or anywhere really and find

tapestry like placemats or actual pieces of tapestry (ebay).

they usually cost anywhere from $1.50 -$2.00 a piece.

The  tapestry pieces go for a little more but are usually bigger in size.

Then you just cut 2 overlapping pieces of scrap fabric that fit the placemat

and sew wrong sides together all around to create a sham.

Here's what the back looks like:

This was a piece of fabric from a flat sheet so it already had a nice edge on it.

You can add any kind of trim you love and I even like adding a little bling with glitter glue.

Sparkly things are awesome during the holidays :0)

I have a few for Halloween and Thanksgiving and

an ever growing collection for Christmas, so it's pretty easy to just change up the shams!

They really make me smile and

I love spreading them all around the house.

These are two I made from tapestry pieces I bought on ebay.

Hope you like the idea!

I'm not a fabulous sewer but these are nice, easy and much much

cheaper than buying ready made pillows!
