DIY Monogram Pillow

Women like pillows. Men hate them! That`s the fact!

I think my boys believe something is wrong with me and that`s why they can`t peacefully enjoy on their favorite sofa or chair... I don`t even need to tell you how much they get irritated when I try to fluff my pillows several times a day...

Maybe it sounds silly to men, but pillows are just like jewelry on a perfect evening combination...  Without them, sofa or armchair looks so unfinished and empty.

To create a monogram pillow you`ll need:

1. Printed monogram
2. Sharpie Marker Textile
3. Plastic folder
4. Pillowcase
5. Ruler
6. Adhesive tape
7. Iron

Tutorial:

Put printed monogram in plastic folder, to prevent sharpie to penetrates on the back of the pillowcase. First monogram I wanted to create is my blog`s monogram.

Measure the size of monogram and pillowcase, to set monogram in a central position.

Tape the monogram inside of pillowcase to prevent it from moving while you`re working.

Tape the pillowcase on to the working surface to prevent it from moving around.

Copy your monogram with sharpie.

Color the monogram with your sharpie.

After I finished this part, it looked a little to plane, so I added circle around the monogram.

Then I added two diagonal lines.

For another one, I decided to use Greek key decorative border. 

And first letter of our family name.

After everything was drawn, I made my border a little thicker for better balance with letter.

Only thing left to do, is to fix your design with iron for a couple minutes and it`s good to go in your washing machine (so I heard).

I think it turned out pretty good, or should I say totally amazing!! Even my boys likes them!
