After Astrid’s pearl-studded sweater, we’re introducing Cristal’s great home decoration idea today. Adopted from her French blog “Autour du Dressing”, we’re getting stylish insights into easy home improvement.
Cristal has chosen one of Spreadshirt’s cloud designs as a basis. Around the grey raindrops, the colourful embroidery lends a cheerful 3D effect to the design.
What you need here:
– a pillow case in a size of your choice showing a cloud and rain drops
– pillow in same size
– embroidery thread
– sewing needles
– scissors
Here we go:
1 – Thread the needle and tie a knot at the end
2 – Start your threaded needle up through the inside of the pillow and embroider the floss around the drops
3 – When you’re done, tie a knot and cut off the remaining thread
4 – Repeat this procedure for all the drops using different colours
Tip: So you don’t have to change the thread all the time, prepare several sewing needles with different colours. Embroider the thread around the drops you like it best as you go.
This is how your final pillow creation could look.
Do you feel like making such a pillow? Then get a move on those needles! And a big shout out to Cristal for this great tutorial !
