Pottery Barn Inspired Christmas Pillows

I love all the Pottery Barn Christmas Pillows ! I have seen a lot  of bloggers making them , so my daughter and I decided to make our own version..We made the sweater pillows from Good Will sweaters. Sewed with the sewing machine then stuffed or put an old pillow inside.

Below are pottery barns pillows..

I didn't want to use the same kind of font , so we just went with a simple font , freehanded..with a few swirlies.. We used burlap ..1 yard made 2 of the jingle pillows and 2 of the Joy button pillows. The burlap cost $2.99 at Joann Fabrics. Not bad for 4 Christmas pillows ! I got the red jingle bells at Dollar tree. We just stuffed the pillows with fiber fill. and sewed by hand the pillows to close the openings on the bottom.

For the big sweater pillow I cut it off under the armholes and sewed it with my sewing machine. I stuffed it and sewed the bottom by hand. I think its a handknit sweater and it makes a beautiful pillow. 

 For the little JOY pillow , I painted the word JOY with white craft paint, then we hot glued buttons to the top of the word.. The NOel pillow is Painted then glittered, on burlap.

 We also made the LOVE ,PEACE ,JOY pottery barn pillows...
 The pottery Barn version ..

 We didn't use stencils ...I just freehanded them..We put parchment paper inside the burlap before we painted them so it wouldn't bleed through to the back.

 They aren't as big as the pottery barn version , we made them the same size as the Jingle pillows.. I think they look great for so little money ..

I would love for you to follow me on Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest ..all the links are in the sidebar !
