PILLOWS

I love these pillows from Pottery Barn but, I didn't want to spend $30 a piece for them.
After seeing what Jen did over at tatertots & jello, I decided that I could make some too!
 

I followed Jen's directions. 
I printed out the numbers on regular card stock.
I used bodoni font at 900 point.
I also used canvas for the pillow front. 
My recommendation would be to really tape down all the edges.

I used fabric paint and a foam brush.

I also made this "Nest" pillow. Also Pottery Barn inspired...

Jen used ric-rac for her pillow trim but I really liked this pom-pom trim. 
(A special thanks to Mimi for driving to 3 different stores in Utah so that I had enough of it)
Then I used chocolate brown polka dot fabric for the back of the pillow. 



3 down 2 to go...
Love it!!!
