Personalized Pillow

I started organizing my scary basement-slash-dungeon yesterday: cleaning with one hand & bug spray ready in the other hand. I am actually finding many cool things! (While squealing at every spider I see. EEEEEEK!) I thought one item I found was worthy of a crafty mention: This pillow, which became a sofa accessory about 10 years ago as a gift to the hubby. (Somehow in the move last year it ended up in the basement.)
I bought an inexpensive cream colored pillow (but you could make one too!) & a black fabric paint pen marker. And then I went to town writing out the lyrics to a song played at my wedding.
Simple. As. That.
Doodle.
Draw.
Spell your name.
Trace a handprint.
Graffiti anyone?
Write a poem.
Sketch a portrait.
Or a scene.
Have all the grandkids make designs & give it to the grandparents.
A housewarming gift.
Slumber party fun.
Buy 9 pillows & make a tic-tac-toe game out of it!
Spell out a word: one letter per pillow.
The possibilities are really endless!
In fact, I think I'll revisit this craft & have my girls get into the action.

Cupcake Plushie Pillows!

Since you've helped me along my cupcake pillow journey, just thought you'd like to know: it's in the shop now!
**And I must say, I get the cutest little models around here.**

Also, I'm announcing later today a really kooky contest. It's seriously a weird one. (The winner will take home one of the aforementioned cupcakes!)

Ciao 'til then my lovely readers!
