I have slowly been thinking of ways to renovate and re-decorate the upstairs portion of our home. Lately, I have been working on color schemes. In our old apartment, our living room used to be olive green and chocolate brown, but this time around, I wanted something brighter and more welcoming.
I figured there is nothing that changes up a room like new pillows do! But I did not want to go out and buy pillows, so I went with a cheaper alternative and made slipcovers for my old ones.
I was originally inspired by this slipcover tutorial
here and then I found a gathered pillow tutorial
here. I absolutely fell in love with the gathered pillow! So unique and fun! Here's the results:
I made the brown and turquoise pillows myself and my mom graciously made the gathered ones. I am so excited at how well everything turned out and cannot wait to finish up the room! (Especially when we finally dispose of the ugly paneling!)
Want to know how much I spent on everything?
$11.00 and some change!
So much cheaper than buying four new pillows at $10-$20 a piece!
