DIY Pumpkin Pillow – NO SEW CRAFT
Have you seen those high-end pumpkin pillows with a high price tag? Ya, me too. One of my favorite crafts to make is one that looks high-end but is easy on my budget! I strolled through Joann crafts the other day and saw that they had this pretty orange velvety fabric on sale for 60% off. So you knew I had to grab it to make something fall and Halloween for my home. The fabric came pre-cut and was 2 yards long and 58 inches wide. Not a bad deal! Not only was I able to make this pumpkin but I have lots of fabric to spare for other projects so don’t be surprised if this fabric shows up in another project soon! đŸ˜‰
Did I mention this craft is no sew? So let’s get into it!
What you will need:
- Plush fabric of your choice (check out clearance and sales!)
- Poly-Fil Stuffing (I always use a coupon when buying poly-fil!)
- Twine (available at Dollar Tree)
- Rope (available at Dollar Tree)
- Glue Gun (I’m using my Cricut Glue Gun, if you haven’t seen my review of this product, you can read about it here.)
- Scissors
- Zip Ties (available at Dollar Tree)
I created a quick tutorial to show just how easy this project is, so check it out below!
Now that you have seen the quick overview, let’s walk through the process…
Step 1:
Cut your fabric into a 29×29-inch square. Lay it out on a flat surface.
Step 2:
Place a bunch of polyfill in the center of the square and then grab each corner of the fabric to close it. Make sure you don’t have any openings.
Step 3:
Next, twist the excess fabric and secure the base of the pumpkin with a zip tie.
Step 4:
Twist the excess fabric into a stem shape and secure with zip ties.
Step 5:
Tie the end of the twine around the base of the stem and then bring the twine down and around the bottom of the pumpkin. Refer to the video to see this in action, it’s easier to show than to explain. đŸ˜‰ Do this several times to create the pumpkin shape. Secure the twine with a knot on the underside.
Step 6:
Starting with the base of the stem, wrap the rope around the excess fabric. Securing as you go with hot glue. As you wrap the rope, form it into a stem-like shape. Trim the end and glue it to the top of the stem.
And that’s it! Wasn’t that a cinch? And isn’t it adorable? I can’t wait to make more! I’m gonna try to make a jumbo size one!
