This is one of my favorite projects thus far because it was soooo easy! I can't sew so I'm all about anything that has "no sew" in the title. :) We recently got a new couch and it came with pillows that match the couch....I put a before picture first in my step by step instructions. Side note: I found this project on Pinterest like most of my projects :)
Materials needed: pillow to cover, material of your choose (I did a yard and 1/2 per pillow....you will need enough extra material to tie in a knot on the pillow)
Before Picture:
Step 1: Lay out your material and place the pillow in the center
Step 3: Fold material halfway up on the pillow
Step 4: Fold other side of material over onto the pillow so that pillow is now completely covered
Step 5: Fold ends into points (like when you wrap a present)
Step 6: Fold sides up onto the pillow like picture below
Step 7: Take pointed ends and tie in a knot like below (originally I stopped here and tucked in the ends of the ties, but I don't think 1 knot would stay--especially with 2 little ones in the house so I opted to double knot the covers...the Pinterest instructions said to do a square knot, but I was apparently absent that day at girl scouts)
Final picture! Here they are double knotted :) I love them and so easy and inexpensive!
so cute!
