I swap out pillows constantly and even though I add zippers to all of them so I can just change out the covers, I still have a LOT to try and store.
I need my pillows to do double duty.
I wanted to add a little tangerine/orange to the living room, so I started going through my stash. I had the perfect pillows.
This is one of my all time favorite fabrics ever (Schumacher’s Chiang Mai Dragon). Only one problem, it is just a little spendy for my budget, so I used it wisely for the fronts of my pillows only.
I chose a really fun tangerine/orange fabric for the back. I love seeing a contrasting fabric peek out from behind.
I decided to just use the tangerine/orange side for my “Spring Living Room”. How fun is this – two pillows for the price of one. Love it.
Next time you find the perfect fabric, but the price is just a little stretch, remember 1/2 yard can make a couple of pillow covers, just pick a fun contrasting fabric and create something “double duty”.
Ok, now to get the rest of the room put together and accessorized.
