This pillow is made from a canvas type bag found at the dollar store. She basically just stuffed it and sewed it shut... genius!
The frame was painted red and the words inside are stickers on the background paper. Very similar to the one she did for Halloween.
I am now on my way to collecting some Valentine's items and hope to make some homemade ones for next year to add to these. I'm thinking some blocks and a table centerpiece that has some red fillers in it perhaps. These are perfect for V-day but also simple and subtle. You would hate for your decor to end up looking like this, right? Yikes! A tad overdone for me.

I love the pillow! so cute1
ReplyDeleteYour momma is a sweetie---such cute gifts! The dollar store bag pillow is a great idea.
ReplyDeletehow did you do that pillow? I love it!
ReplyDeleteHad to stop and laugh... while looking for Valentines Day ideas, I stumbled across your blog. My mom's maiden name is LaForce and for our family reunion a few years back we all had shirts made that said 'LaForce Be With You'. Probably no relation (my LaForce's are all in California), but I had to share. Have a great day!
