Solve Your Pillow Problems With Paint-A-Pillow

DIY Accent Pillows Using the Peacock Feather Paint-A-Pillow Kit

Good morning, my crafty friends.  Cutting Edge Stencils completely understands that finding the perfect accent pillow is a common problem. The right color but in the wrong pattern or the right pattern in the wrong color. Our sister company, Paint-A-Pillow, makes the entire process super easy with their pillow kits. Simply choose the pattern you love and the colors that coordinate with your room.  Then presto, a fool proof craft project that will complete your home decor.  Come check out the latest pillow project featuring our Peacock Feathers Paint-A-Pillow.

We’d like to introduce Jennifer, the domestic DIY queen behind the blog Town and Country Living.  Jennifer talks about her accent pillow problems on her blog.  Most of her rooms are pretty neutral which means she can happily decorate with any color she desires.  The problem is that as soon as she finds the color she loves, it happens to be in a pattern she dislikes.  So when she stumbled upon Paint-A-Pillow, it was love at first sight.  She said, ” I realized it’s the perfect solution to my dilemma! I can choose from a variety of patterns and then I can choose the color too!”  After browsing the patterns on the site, she chose the Peacock Feathers Paint-A-Pillow kit with a white pillow cover and several Jacquard fabric paints.  Here is a sneak peek at what she created:

From the bright colors to the bold peacock pattern, we love how these accent pillows sing Spring! We know, we know… you love them and now you want to know how to recreate them.  We’re going to give you a quick snapshot on how she painted these beauties and then we’ll share some more pretty photos plus a giveaway!

Jennifer opened her Paint-A-Pillow box and was happy to see it came with all of the supplies she needed.  She commented, “The packaging itself impressed me!”

She placed her items in her crafting space and was ready to start her project.  Jennifer poured her apple green and turquoise fabric paint into a foam tray.    Then she rolled the dense foam roller in the paint.  She was careful to not overload the roller because this would cause the paint to bleed under the stencil.

Once her pillow was painted, she lifted the stencil to reveal her gorgeous Peacock Feather pattern. Then she was ready to paint her second pillow.  She reversed the colors for the second pillow.  And here they are again!

Jennifer had this to say about her stencil project, ” I love the colors and I love the pattern. Painting them was the easy part.”
