Total Time: 2 hours

Yield: 1 pillow

Supplies:

• several pieces of coloured felt
• something round like a jar lid
• pencil
• scissors
• hot glue gun with glue
• 1 pillow

Steps:

1. Place your round item over a piece of felt and trace with your pencil.

 
2. Cut out the circle. You can layer pieces of felt to cut out more than one at a time.

 
3. You can also use a cut felt circle to use as a guide to cut out others. The felt sticks together nicely if you hold it firmly.

5. Dab hot glue on the edges.

 
6. Press them onto an edge of the pillow.

8. Start hot gluing full felt circles on, overlapping the first row on the edge.

9. Keep making your way down, staggering the circles.

 
10. See that big pile of scraps from cutting the circles out? You need these!

 
11. Fill any gaps on the edges with scraps, gluing and tucking under the other circles.

 
12. Enjoy that pop of colour every time you enter the room!
