Happy July, Sweet Friends, the 4th of July is almost here. I’m still Celebrating Red, White and Blue, are you? I am all in on Patriotic decor. I love celebrating the seasons and remembering my country is high on that list. The patriotic season is one of my favorites.

Times are interesting but we cannot forget our country and be grateful. I find when I decorate for the seasons it reminds me to be thankful for what I have.

Easy to Make Patriotic Pillow!

My couch was looking pretty lonely with out any Patriotic Decor.  I knew I had a solution to that problem, an easy solution I might add. No-sew patriotic pillows with just a few items I already had at home. No shopping needed, but of course, all the links to purchase the products to create this craft are below.

I used some of the patriotic decorations from the Celebrating Red, White and Blue – Easy Summer Table Decorations to decorate this small hutch that sits in my hallway. The Patriotic Pillow sits so well next to the hutch and it’s the perfect spot to sit at while opening mail or putting on your shoes.

Wikipedia defines Patriotism as “having national pride.  The feeling of love, devotion and sense of attachment to a homeland and alliance with other citizens who share the same sentiment.”

The month of July reminds me of festivities like fireworks, parades, concerts and family gatherings and barbecues all in celebration of the birth of American independence. From 1776 to the present day,  the 4th of July has been a time of joy and reunion around this country we call our own.

There is nothing like a crowd of people gathering together to reminisce and be grateful. Unfortunately this year, times are different and crowds of people are not safe. Thankfully, we can still reminisce on years past memories and be grateful for life and those we love.

Would you like to recreate this pillow. Watch the video above or keep reading for the written tutorial.

MATERIALS NEEDED TO CREATE A PATRIOTIC PILLOW!

• Pillow Form
• Bandana
• Drop Cloth
• Glue Gun and Fabric Glue Sticks
• Scissors

DIRECTIONS FOR CREATING A PATRIOTIC PILLOW!

STEP ONE:

Prepare your pillow. Wash (optional) and iron the pillow to remove creases. Put something inside the pillow cover, like a piece parchment paper or a paper bag.

Step two:

Google a star template. Cut out the template and use it as a pattern.

I used drop cloth and bandanas, but you can use any kind of material.

Step three:

Use a Glue Gun with Fabric Glue Sticks and adhere the stars onto the pillow. Use cotton balls to fill the stars and add a bit of puffs.

I love decorating my home for the seasons. I love to remember each month and season of the year and celebrate that time. Changing out pillows each season is such an easy way to create a sense of the season you are in.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this super fun and easy no-sew patriotic pillow. Now go out there and create something.
