Cosy cushions for the win!
This month’s blog theme was winter. I don’t know about the rest of you but bearing in mind how rough this year has been, I’m ready to hibernate and get properly hygge. Cue some sofa time, lots of tea and a Christmas tree.
If I’m going to be spending lots more time on my sofa, I fancied some new cushions to brighten up my days. I took some inspiration from some of these high street versions…
Every time Sammy posts about these Pom-Pom strings I swear I’m going use them in a project, they’re so much fun. I then ran with the pom-pom theme and used the Clover Pom-Pom makers to make lots of Pom-poms.
I made these simple zipped cushions using white upholstery fabric from my stash and some zippers. I had forgotten how good it feels to make a project like this, I have been focusing on clothes for so long. However, trimming these cushions was the fun part. Personally I think the Pom-Pom overload makes for some super cute cushions. As well as pom-poms I used these linen ribbons for the pink cushions.
I have become a little obsessed with making pom-poms. It’s seriously addictive! These pom-pom makers make it super easy and it’s so much fun. It’s also a great way to use up leftover bits of yarn (or the ton of other peoples leftovers that I ordered from eBay). This is definitely the best lock down hobby! They’re going to turn up everywhere for a little while…
