What to do with a pillow

that is pretty but not in your color

pallette. Well thats not completely true.

The white is starting to come into my home.

But the golden color is not. However

those cupids are so darling - I just cant

resist them. Hate to cover them. I have had this pillow

forever. Or at least it seems that way. Time for a change!

What to do. Thats easy enough. Just take

2 placemats. Yes I did said placemats & use them

to cover the pillow. These placemats were white on both

sides but one side had a little stain. The good thing about

using placemats is that - on the inside you dont have to worry

about the fabric fraying. Zoom in you can see the edges are

bound together. Be sure to leave a big enough opening!

Stuff that pillow in there anyway that

you can. See its in there.

Last - just sew it closed. Its a brand new

pillow.

Its a great lumbar pillow for the computer

chair. Ahhh it sure does feel good!

Looks pretty too.

I hope you start looking at those placemats a

little differently from now on. Another

thing that I would like to say is - I hope that

all of you that do Miniatures really consider using

SCRAPBOOK PAPER for those walls that need wallpaper.

Dollhouse wallpaper is about $15.00 a roll.

I only used 5 sheets of scrapbook paper

for the entire apartment. Each sheet was only 69 cents each.

Thats a great savings. And I like it that not everyone

has this in their dollhouse! And I applied it to the walls with

Mod Podge. Also think about these placemats.

Zoom in on this pillow - & you

will see a nice pattern. What about using it for

MATALASSE' bed covers for your miniature beds!

The pattern is just the right size. Now

if I could only find those other 2 white

placemats - then I could stitch them up for those

naked dollhouse beds!

Thank you for visiting me.
