How to make a dish towel pillow for $2.00

By Debbiedoo's Team Published: Apr 17, 2013 · Modified: Feb 6, 2015

Hi there!  

Glad to see you stop by today.

 

You know me, I get on a roll of something and there is no telling when I stop.

This weeks kick are

Pillows!

Let’s talk pillows.

I love pillows, however they can get pricey and I tend to shy away most of the time.

Now dish towels, I can buy plenty of those.

Today, that is what I am sharing ….

a diy dish towel pillow.

After I made my pretty kitchen drop cloth pillow

I remembered some time ago last year I bought two dish towels on clearance at Home goods for a buck each.

Actually what reminded me was

Maryann from Domestically speakings

pretty dish towel pillow.

I have made a dish towel pillow in the past

however, it was not nearly as pretty a pattern or color.

This one however is more in keeping with our kitchen.

This could not be any easier…

seriously, all I did was  fold it in half width wise of course.

Hot glue all but one end, stuff, and hot glue shut.

I bought a bag of the stuff from Walmart.

This is  the other dish towel pillow I was making side by side this one.  I  was taking the pics as I went along to show you…

so yes, the above is a different color you are not losing your eye sight.

I ironed it up all pretty first because

who wants a wrinkled pillow?

Sorry, I am totally skipping all over the place on this post.

Hope you are following me:)

As often as I like to change things up,

this will be perfect in the summer time.

I love lemons too…

    I’ve sewn pillow cases but never thought to try hot glue. Does it hold up well? Last through lots of use with kids? Because if it does…well you just gave me a far easier way! lol
    And they look fabulous too boot!!

    Very nice Debbie! I have used tea towels for pillows too. But I sew them. I think it is a great idea to use glue, for anyone who does not sew!!!

    Have to say I didn’t believe you, they would have to look glued or just fall apart sooooo I took 2 dollar store place mats to try this myself, finally. And you know what? I am stunned and am now a total believer 🙂 you can’t even tell they are hot glued!! Yay! Thank you for making me a believer. I see quite a few new pillows in my future!
