Hello Everyone. Hope your Labor Day Weekend was a good one.
I found these Ray Dunn pillows at HomeGoods on the clearance shelf for $10.
|
They were going to be too big of pillows to set on my two ladder back kitchen chairs. I decided to take the pillow inserts out and make a slipcover for the back of the ladder back chairs.
|
|
The pillow was sewn together at the top and the bottom of the pillow case. I took my sharp scissors and cut along the seam on the bottom of the pillow case. |
|
I do not own a sewing machine or sew. I envy you people that can sew. I do not sew but.... I do have a hot glue gun!
|
|
After I cut the front and back sides at the bottom of the pillow cases I folded over the seam and used the glue gun instead of sewing. |
|
I put dots of the hot glue along the pillow case where I wanted to fold over and make a seam.
|
|
It made a nice flat seam for the front and back bottom of the pillow case.
|
|
I then put the pillow case over the chair back and carefully marked where the top of the pillow case needed to be cut to let the post of the chair to come through.

Have a great week. Hugs, Kris

ReplyDeleteoh my gosh, Kris, these are adorable, what a great way to use them. I would never have guessed that they weren't sewn! they're perfect for those chairs.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute, Kris! I don't sew either but I use the iron-on tape when I get inspired!
ReplyDeleteJane
Oh Kris, you did it again! I've done that before too, since I don't sew or own a machine. But you really got the proportions right! BRAVO!
ReplyDeleteKris, you never cease to amaze me. What a clever (and cute) idea!

Those are darling Kris and came out so perfect! I love the no sew projects, even though I do sew! I just heard of some good glue to use with fabric, that's supposed to work way better than hot glue! It's E6000 Fabric Glue. I guess it's very very strong and yet flexible and not hard like hot glue. Just an FYI. I'm going to get some and see how it works on making fabric gift bags. I see you have a checkered runner on your table, which also looks awesome! Hugs.. Marilyn
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic idea Kris! They now look like they were made for those chairs. Hugs, Gilly
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, how cute! What a darling idea! You have mad skills, my friend...they fit perfectly! :D Your little cottage is the very cutest.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely so cute! What a fantastic idea!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cecilia
Oh wow... what a great idea! I just love how these turned out!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute project! Adorable! xoxo
ReplyDeleteWow..great find first of all. Score! How clever of a transformation. You are too much. ;0) ... :0) Love it. It looks great.
ReplyDeleteI'm not partial to sewing, LOVE the idea of gluing, you have opened new horizons for me! Good for you finding something at home goods, ours is so depleted its not worth the effort of suiting up for the pandemic.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute Kris! You are very inventive!
ReplyDeleteCute idea. I saw a pillow I almost got at Big Lots the other day, it said, "come sit a spell"....great for Halloween but I would leave it out all the time.
ReplyDeleteWell you crafty girl. How cute and clever are those chairs, with the pillow cases. I love it. Blessings to you and yours, xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteKris, so darling. I love the look and the sentiment is perfect for your sweet cottage. Reminds me of ones I made a long time ago out of napkins. I just put them away and forgot about them. Will have to drag them out. Thanks for the reminder..Stay well in your Home Sweet Home..xxoJudy
ReplyDeleteGenius! They turned out so cute! You're so clever! Hugs!
ReplyDeletePerfect solution. So cute.
