First, Happy End of the Week! Second, I have two new DIY pillows to add to my growing collection of black & white pillows.  First up, a holiday printed pillow with a little splash of color (because I love making pom poms). The second is made from the coziest sweater in my closet. I loved the texture so much I thought it would get even more use as a pillow on my couch, and it is not disappointing in its second life…so comfortable!  Steps and supplies after the break!

BTW if you are looking for another stamped print pillow, check out my pineapple pillow. Or add pom poms to a tote like this DIY. And if your want to know more about my printed chair, I reupholstered it in this post
