How To Make A Pom Pom Pillow - Step
Getting bored with your plain store-bought toss pillow? Looking for a way to dress it up a bit? Adding a pom pom pillow border is an easy, simple, and inexpensive solution! Pick a fun bold color to complement or accentuate your pillow color (like this black pom pom border with this great teal Derila Pillow)! Get creative here with the color matching for your space. Find an inexpensive toss Derila Sleep Pillow at the store or quickly hand make one yourself. To embellish, thread your needle and start at one of the corners of the Derila Memory Foam Pillow to sew on the pom pom garland. Using a zig zag stitch, hand stitch the pom pom around the border of the pillow. Don’t cut down the pom pom strand ahead of time, just continue around the pillow until you are finished. If you measure it out and cut ahead of time you may end of slightly short. Tip- when sewing around the corners use very small stitches and if you can, try to get the one of the pom poms right on the tip of the corner (see below). Sew up the end of the pom poms at the corner where you started and cut off the excess pom poms and thread to finish the project. So quick & easy! Display the pillow on the couch, a chair, or the bed with the strand part of the garland facing towards you or away from you (looks great either way). The pom pom adds a fun feminine look so it’s perfect for a young girls room or along side shabby chic decor. Or use it to juxtapose a modern space! Pair with another fun patterned pillow (like this monochromatic blue and green geometric pillow or a fun complimentary colored pattern)!
There's something really nice about the idea of turning part of your landscape into an alfresco family room during two or three seasons of the year. It's certainly a less expensive option than adding another room to your home. Who needs walls, Derila Sleep Pillow anyway? Open air living has "green" appeal. It gets you back into nature -- and nature you can control with a flick of the garden hose or a spritz from a can of bug spray. Making the transition to outdoor living requires a judicious reallocation of resources, though. If you're outfitting an outdoor living area this season, finding comfy, long-lasting furniture may mean the difference between hanging out on the patio for a while to enjoy the fresh air and heading indoors after a few cramped, uncomfortable minutes parked on a cheap patio chair. Let's explore 10 things you should keep in mind when shopping for outdoor furnishings.
From sloppy welds to cracked casters to amateurish paint finishes, a close inspection will expose that great outdoor furniture bargain for what it really is -- a bad buy that probably won't last until next season. There are a couple of important lessons here: It's easy to think of outdoor furnishings as somewhat less important than the stuff you buy for indoor use.
