DIY:Pretty Pillow

picture via Row Boat Press via Yellow Brick Home

I've seen this pillow around and fell in love with it when I saw it. I didn't really know where to buy it and because I for some reason think I can make anything, {which most definitely isn't true, but every time I see something I like I instantly think, "how can I make this!?"} so of course, I decided to try and make it!

*update: Tia has the real version of this pillow and apparently Target is the place to go if you want to join the cool-yellow-flower-pillow club.



I am especially proud of the brown trim that I miraculously figured out how to add around the edges.



I used an older pillow as the stuffing and sewed on a zipper, so if I decide I want to go back to the old pillow to switch things up, I can! Now we have a nice, new, bright and cheery addition to our bed! Yay!


*Kim from Yellow Brick Home was kind enough to give me the source to the top picture, I thought it was just a styled room featuring this picture from Row Boat Press but it's also the stylishly awesome couple's bedroom! I should have known that it actually was their bedroom. The rest of their house is my absolute favorite! It also happens that they have the cutest kids. Nixy has a secret crush on their boy Jack. And we have matching kitties! Go stop by their blog it's full of wonderful style, cool diy projects, fabulous photography and of course cute cute pet children. All of my most favorite things.

Check out my next yellow brick home copy-cat project. I can't help that they are just so copiable. ( yes, that is a real word. I googled it)
