A couple of years ago when we
were in Texas
I bought a few grain sacks to make into pillows.
I never had the heart to cut them up so there they sat nicely folded……..
The other day I finally decided to take the plunge and make them into pillows.
After all….what am I waiting for?
I’m certainly not getting any younger!!!!

ReplyDeleteHi Des: So lovely. My sister-in-law gave me a small canvas sack from her family in Georgia that was for peanuts. I think I'll turn it into a pillow one of these days.. Wonderful idea.. Happy Monday..Judy
ReplyDeletei love them des! i have some old coffee sacks that need to be made into pillows but i love the grain sacks better.

You did the right thing, Des! : ) They look great. I've started to stop "saving" things and just use them. What am I saving them for? I'm certainly not getting any joy out of things put away in drawers or storage.
ReplyDeleteFirst off, Your room is gorgeous, The pillows are the perfect compliment. I love the chairs.Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done! They look perfect on your chairs.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE them!! They're perfect:) And I do that same thing. I've had fabric for years that I just can't stand the thought of getting near a pair of scissors!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you took the plunge, they look beautiful!

You did a nice job on your pillows. I was noticing your china cabinet, and I love it! I am decorating right now. I guess it's the spring weather, and I am getting ideas just looking at your pictures. Your house looks so lovely.

ReplyDeleteThese are great Des! I have some pillows I need to make but I keep procrastinating since I have never made any before. I am spying your gorgeous stairs in the background. It looks like they do not have a bull nose but are flat. Are they just the planks that were there or are they new treads? I want too redo our stairs and if possible just use the planks that are already there and stain um but hubby is not keen to that plan.
ReplyDeleteI am still in the hunt for some grain sack pillows.Looks great!
