Christmas Pillow Idea- Ornament Pillow

December 13, 2011 by Kaysi 38 Comments

This post contains affiliate links.

I love making pillow covers, they are so easy and I love how they look! I saw this idea, she made a shirt with ornaments but I thought that it would be cute as a pillow.


This is how I made it:
1) I cut the fabric out with my CAMEO. You could easily cut the ornaments out with scissors if you wanted to.

2) I ironed them onto the front of my fabric.

3) I then glued ribbon and bows onto the ornaments.

4) I then put the back of the pillow onto the front and then sewed the four sides together.

I stuffed it with a pillow. And now I have a super cute Christmas pillow!

    That is so cute! I too love making pillow covers, rather than pillows. They take up much less space!!

    I love this idea! I think this pillow cover is every bit as charming as the Pottery Barn stocking pillow that is so popular this year. Thanks for sharing.

    Very cute! I love the fabric you used. Please keep us posted on how it lasts. I made a tree pillow like this and after a couple months of being sat on some of the fusible web is coming loose.
