DIY DROP CLOTH PILLOW COVERS

I love the idea to dress up old pillows without having to buy new ones. And it also very inexpensive.
Do you love these pillow covers?
Here’s what you need to make them yourself:
drop cloth
old pillows
stencil
painters tape
paint
STEPS:
I have a sewing machine, and I used it sew my covers, but if you don’t have one, use this great tutorial from my bloggy friend Krista, to make yours without a machine.
Next, I taped my cover to paint thin lines around the edges.
I used my cutting tool { Silhouette-which I LOVE } to cut my stencils.
Using my little sponge brush, I painted my pillow cover with my chosen color.
I peeled off my stencil, and I got my beautiful big number 25.
What do you think?
Pretty neat and so different.
Will you try this project?
How do you refresh a look of your old pillows?
Here is another drop cloth project I shared last week:
DROP CLOTH CHRISTMAS WREATH

Thank you for visiting!
Xoxo~
What is your favorite stencil material?
In one picture, the drop cloth looks tan, in other pictures, it looks white…
It must be lighting that made it look different. Drop cloth looks more tan than white. I hope you will enjoy this project!:-)
where is Krista’s direction for making the cute pillows without a sewing machines? would love to know.
Thx bunches & Merry Christmas!!
Love, love your pillows. I am for sure gonna make some seasonal ones! Thanks for the great idea!
Thank you!!
So cute!! What type of paint did you use for these?
Hey there, regular paint ( from Home Depot) and I added fabric medium so it would be washable.:-)
Acrylic paint or latex paint?
I used acrylic paint. 🙂
Love it!
Just moved to The States last year, and I’m still learning new words.
Tried to google “Drop Cloth” to see where I could go buy some – because I definatly need these for Christmas!!
Do you remember where you bought yours? I would be very sorry to buy the wrong thing.
Thanks for sharing this great tuturial !!
Home Depot has every size. Go to the paint section. hope it helps! Have a great weekend!
Great job on the pillows. I too have a Silhouette Machine and I’m just starting to use it. Are you using a certain paper for your stencils to keep them in place?
