DIY Home Decor Projects that are fun and EASY!

Have you ever walked into Pier 1 Imports (I LOVE that store!) and wish you owned EVERYTHING? Me too!

For example, I was walking around the other day and saw an amazing pillow embellished with large jewels that I thought was amazing.  Even though I ALMOST splurged and bought the pillow for $50, I decided to go home and see if I had anything at home to make something similar myself.

When I got home I was so excited I found 6 of my 20x16mm CRYSTALLIZED™ Swarovski Cosmic Sew-on Stones in  Crystal AB (Aurora Borealis Coating, it gives the crystal a multi-colored shine).
So I went to Target looking for the perfect pillow and actually found it! The pillow was only $14.99! I was really excited.


It's funny because I am the worst sewer ever, especially on a sewing machine, but the CRYSTALLIZED™ Swarovski Cosmic Sew-on Stones are so easy to use.  That's why I love them.

They have two holes, one at the top and one at the bottom, so all you have to do is put your needle and thread right through them and through the first layer of the pillow, tie your knot, snip your thread, and your done!

What do you think?
