No-Sew Saturday – Fun Fabric Projects

Many thanks to everyone who linked up to

Fab Finds for the Fourth #2. We had 33 projects!

(someone needs to invent a cyberspeak icon for HUGS!)

I hope you’ll all stop by again next Thursday for Fab Finds #3.

 

Are you ready for some fun no-sew home decor? Let’s start with this burlap table runner. Burlap has become the fabric lately, hasn’t it? 

Strictly Homemade

Maridith @ Strictly Homemade took an old runner, glued burlap to the back (yes, glued!) and then embellished it with a monogram.

Guess how she did the monogram – with a Magic Marker! A girl after my own heart!

So you see what you can do to update a runner – what about placemats? Why, turn them into pillows, of course!

Scene of the Grime

Laurie @ Scene of the Grime took placemats & bandanas and created these adorable pillows for her grandkids. I love the whimsy of the bandana print, but you could use any fabric. The possibilities are endless. She attached the letters with spray adhesive and closed the pillows with iron-on adhesive. No sewing!


Cottage & Vine

I had never heard of a ‘pelmet’ until I saw these red beauties @ Cottage & Vine. Rene made these without sewing. She even shows you how to make the pelmet boxes. I love the tailored look. She also shows how to make a curtain to cover a bookcase.


Finding Fabulous

Do you see those curtains? This girls says she can’t sew! That’s right. She glued them all together. Jane @ Finding Fabulous started with a pair of ready-made panels that were too short, added fabric to the bottom & the top and - Voila! Darling curtains! Okay, I guess I shouldn’t say ‘darling’ since it’s camouflage fabric, but you get what I mean.

I don’t know about you, but these bloggers have taken away the “I can’t sew” excuses to home decor! What have you made with iron on adhesives or a glue gun? Please share!
