Angel Wings on My Pillow

Hello again from The French Hen's Nest


   As I was scrolling through the parties last week, I found a post that had a poinsettia pillow, which was so pretty. It was made with boiled wool.  I have tried to find the blog, but I can't, and of course I can't remember the name.  As I scrolled further down, I found a pillow with angel wings. The wings were made of felt, and it looked so pretty, that I was inspired to make my own Christmas pillow with angel wings.   

First, I had to make a run to the craft store for supplies.  I went to AC Moores, found the felt, bought a little glue and was ready to go.  I used quick stick felt and decided that I would add something more to mine, maybe feathers. 

 

The nice thing about quick stick felt is that it can be removed from the pillow after the holiday, if you wish. I put the wings on a burlap pillow case that I've had for a while, and was just waiting to do something creative with it. I first drew the wing pattern on the back of the felt, then cut them out.  After placing the wings on the pillow case, I glued the feathers onto the  wings one by one.  I really like the way it turned out.  Here it is, hope you like it.

  I also had a white silk decorative pillow case sitting around, and decided to paint a pattern on it with a stencil. I'm decorating a bedroom for my granddaughter, Em, for Christmas and I'm using white and gold. I had a small container of Martha Stewart gold paint, and a sponge paint brush? Sponge? Anyway, I love how it turned out, looks great in her bedroom.

These were two fun and easy projects to do. And it took care of that creative yearning for a while. Sure you know what I mean.

Thank you for visiting.  Take care.

Till Nest Time,

Jeannie
