Closet Flashback: Ikea Pillow Covers

I made these pillow covers for my couch a few apartments ago out of a panel of home dec fabric from Ikea. I love them so, so much and they make me smile every time I see them. I realize they're a little bright and funky but they work for me! 

Of course they have vintage piping.

The couch on it's own is pretty boring which is great because it makes for a nice blank canvas for the pillows to reside on.

What does the fox say? I honestly don't know…that video scares me.

The squirrel pillow is actually my favorite of the two. It reminds me of the squirrel we helped domesticate named Cletus when we lived in NJ. 

Easy Pillow Covers from Ikea Fabric

From time to time, I need to change up my pillow covers. They are so easy and quick to make and they can change the whole look of a room for almost nothing. Spring is almost here and I wanted to add some color to my living room (and add some life to my dilapidated couch that has seen too many flights of stairs). I've had this panel of Ikea fabric for over a year now and wasn't sure what to do with it until now. With the help of a little ivory piping, the end result is two wild and funky pillows that make me laugh every time I see them :) As a bonus, my husband likes them too!
