15 Minute Cushion Cover
15 Minute Cushion Cover
NO SEWING MACHINE REQUIRED !
Hi folks, once again, this week I started to play with the products in the shop and see the different things I can make.
I showed you some wall art made from stain last week, on Facebook Friday ( my live broadcast every Friday from my facebook page)
But, before that, I had decoupaged a small cloth bag. This turned out so well and customers went mad buying the little bags , that I had to buy in a lot more. While I was on the wholesale website I saw a bigger version of the bag.
Now most people would see a big cloth shopping back, but typical me, I saw a cushion cover !! lol
So I simply cut off the long handles and got out my stash of stencils. Get you BLANK BAG HERE
I could not decide whether to do an Indian elephant Stencil
Or a Stags Head ( having a bit of a love affair with the Stags Head ATM )
But in the end I decide to go with the Acanthus Damask stencil from our HOME DECOR RANGE
SO I placed it in the centre of the bag and stenciled it using the following:
- Chalk paint in Avocado
- Gold Acrylic Paint available in the shop €3.99
- Stencil Brush Pack
The full stencil I did in the Chalk Paint and then I highlighted the edges in the gold.
Popped in an old filler I had and top stitched the top of it closed.
The stitching took the longest probably about 1o mins..
But its gorgeous and the possibilities are endless. Watch the Facebook page for more versions of it.
I think I am a little bit addicted now and what GREAT PRESENTS they make !!
Here is the finished cushion cover.
