In my quest to infuse color into my living room, I spent a few days over winter break making covers for throw pillows in pretty vibrant prints. I’d only made a pillow cover one other time using this really helpful tutorial from J.Caroline Creative, which has a really handy calculator to make sure your dimensions are correct!
I used this tutorial from Isabella & Max Rooms to make my first ‘piped’ pillow! I definitely should have spent time making my own bias tape as opposed to simply cutting a strip of fabric and sewing it around the cording, which would’ve helped me perfect the corners. However, I think it turned out swell!
Zippers scared me…until I found this simple tutorial from Design Sponge detailing how to add a zipper instead of a back flap pocket (probably not a technical term) which, after following, I became a pillow-cover making machine!

Hi! Love your gallery wall. Could you tell me where you purchased your "Every Little Thing" art. Thanks!
Hi Jen! It's actually something I designed and printed myself so I'm afraid you can't purchase it anywhere! 🙁
I was trying to find the floral fabric that you used, but couldn't locate it on warm biscuit. Do you happen to remember the name of it?
Hi Rachel-
I don't remember the exact name but is has 'hibiscus' in it! Hope this helps!
Love this room! Where did you purchase your couch?
The couch was a local purchase several years ago!
What is the paint colour? I have been looking for a colour to go with my beige furniture and love this!
