DIY: Scarf Pillows & Frames (From Bali With Love)

This woman never ceases to amaze me. I just love Jenny from the Little Green Notebook. I've blogged about her several times before. She has the best decorating ideas on her blog and she shows you many ways and examples of how to accomplish a great look for a great price. :)

I love this idea of using scarves to make pillows! A few years ago, I got a whole pile of scarves from my mother...scarves worn in the 80's and early 90's. I remember she used to wear them to work in her blazer pocket or tied around her neck for a loose cowl look. Sometimes, she would even thread them through the loops of her skirt or slacks to serve as a fun belt. When I moved overseas to Bali, I sold most of my stuff and packed up the rest. I honestly can't remember if they went into my box of items to keep or to donate?!?! I sure hope I saved them so I can do this project when I move back to the states. Jenny also suggests framing scarves, which I've seen done in many design magazines before. This is such an easy and CHEAP project to add that something special to your room. You can even use this project to showcase favorite heirlooms, such as your Grandmother's favorite scarf.

Here are SOME of Jenny's post ideas. You can see Jenny's full post HERE.

Jenny also provided links on her post that show how to do this project HERE and HERE.
