Do pillows need a little face lift?
Check out this DIY tutorial from Jaime; an upcycling pro! After her husband gave her a pile of old button downs, she reworked them into cute pillowcases adding a delicate appliqué for a dash of a feminine touch.
Visit her blog for a catalog of great DIY tutorials and projects!
She began with regular button downs.
Then she cut the shirt into a square and realigned the seams so everything matched.
She sewed the edges inside out and then flipped it to fit the pillow.
Jaime cut four circles and folded them to make the flower.
Glue a cute button in the center of your flower and you’re all done!
