I bought these grey velvet pillow
covers when H&M had them on sale a few months ago.
At the time I didn’t have a specific spot in mind for them but
they were such a good deal I couldn’t pass them up!
The pillow covers eventually found
a home on the slipcovered club chairs in the living room.
I loved the color with the neutral linen slipcovers but felt like they needed
just a little something……. so I added letter appliques.
I bought iron on appliques which look just like a stitched monogram.
The cost for two pillows was less than
$10 and it took about half an hour to complete.
