Spring-Inspired Stenciled Accent Pillows
Spring is in the air! At least that's what it says on our calendar. Regardless of cool weather, Cutting Edge Stencils wants you to consider brightening up your home with some Spring-inspired decor. Accent pillows are the easiest way to freshen up a space and our sister company, Paint-A-Pillow, makes creating DIY accent pillows super easy with their pillow kits. Come check out the latest Spring-inspired pillow project featuring our Anemone Blossom Paint-A-Pillow.
We'd like to introduce Sarah, the queen of crafting and a self-proclaimed glitter addict behind the blog Becoming Martha.
Sarah decided to brighten up her home and allow spring to blossom inside. She said, "Pillows are one of my favorite ways to change up the colors and mood of a room – and conveniently enough, they happen to be really easy!" Makes perfect sense to us! Luckily, Sarah discovered Paint-A-Pillow at just the right time. She browsed the large collection of pillow patterns and carefully chose a beautiful floral, the Anemone Blossom.
Sarah wanted to paint her floral pillow in a coral hue so she had to mix some of her fabric paints. To make the coral color she mixed 1 part each of red and orange and 3 parts white.
Sarah used a stencil brush to paint the pattern. She was careful to not overload the brush with too much paint because this would have caused the paint to bleed under the stencil.
After her pillow was painted, she lifted the stencil to reveal her pretty Anemone Blossom pattern. Then she was ready to paint her second pillow.
Sarah had this to say about her stencil project, " This might be my new favourite way to decorate pillows, it’s so fun."
