I made my own CHANEL throw pillow today and I'm in love with it!
I only needed a few things and it was super easy to make.
Things you will need:
1. A Chanel Dust Bag
This is probably the hardest item to acquire, I used my old one from a Chanel bag I purchased.
You can use any designer dust bag you have around, or purchase a Chanel dust bag from Ebay - I see them pop up quite often and they go for under $20.
2. A Sewing Kit - $1
Make sure you have thread the same color as the pillow case cover you're making.
3. Pillow Stuffing - $5
This is sold at any craft store, I bought mine in the craft section from Walmart
Mine is 14 inches x 14 inches
(Optional 4. Zipper - $1)
I used a 12 inch black zipper
TOTAL COST - $7
How to:
1. Trim off the top draw string part of the dust bag
2. Measure out the pillow case to a square of approximately 12 inches x 12 inches
3. Put in the pillow stuffing and hand stitch the top closed
OPTIONAL 4. I sewed a black zipper to the top so that I'm able to remove the stuffing and wash the pillow case. It took me about an hour to cut, stitch and complete it.
Ta-da! This is how it looks with my bedding.
xoxo, elle.
