What I Did With What I Thrifted: Vintage Chenille Brooch Pillows

I snagged this sweet vintage chenille bedspread from my WV Haul. I knew it would never fit our bed but aside from a few spots, it was in otherwise great condition. No holes and it was still soft as ever. And I absolutely adore the pastel mint color. I thought of hanging on to it for any random upholstery pieces I might have down the road (bench and seat cover type uphosltery) but I ultimately decided I couldn't wait. I had a couple down throw-pillow forms that I'd picked up a while back that were perfect for what I wanted to create.

Once I had them covered - and since I still can't sew, this was a no-sew project - I decided they needed a little something extra. Bows. Everything looks great with a bow!

I used some wide canvas ribbon to wrap these guys.


Then I added a vintage brooch to each pillow to give them a little bit of sparkle. Aren't they sweet? I love how they turned out!

These guys are listed for sale in the TLBT Littles section. Chihuahua not included...
