Blaming the Dayquil

I am so hyped up on NyQuil that I forgot to post my newest DIY this morning!
I went to World Market last week and found these two napkins that were 25% off of 2.99... and fell in love with the pattern. At 2 bucks each they were basically free so I had to snag them up. I busted out the old sewing machine and made these suckers into a throw pillow... How cute!
I only made one but I think I will go back once I am done dying in my bed and buy some more. When pillows can be made for that cheap you almost HAVE to make them!

    What a great and easy to do little project! You've inspired me to head over to West Elm and check out their clearance napkins!

    These are SO cute! I love the trim, so cute! I have had a few tea towels sitting in a box from Anthropologie just waiting to be transformed into pillows.... you really have my wheels turning to get that done!

    You're sick and still doing projects, girl quite making us all look bad! I have some vintage scarves I got for $1 each that I hope to do this with as well.

    I digs the pattern, did you put a zipper on them? I skip that step since I'm lazy sometimes. Sucks if I ever need to wash em, I need to learn.

    That is a great idea! I love the pattern. Indian prints like that are hard to find where I live (so I'm a bit jealous).

    Love this. I was actually crushing on these a couple weeks ago at World Market, but put them back down after I realized we never use cloth napkins. I think I may have to try this.

    Excellent information and facts. Only real difficulty I was basically receiving was viewing the pics. No idea exactly why.
