I used my portable PFAFF hobby 1016 sewing machine, yard stick, scissors, chalk, straight pins, velcro strips & seam ripper - just in case of a do over here or there! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613915340454-B7E97GGKVX9TIY0GVB5L/IMG_1156.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers Step 5: Across the bottom of the t-shirt I used small little circles of Velcro to use keep the cover closed once it is on the pillow. I set the needle on the Velcro & made a couple of stitches & then did a reverse stitch to secure it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613942930890-JJER0M9UP86DRLWH62B8/IMG_1163.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613914997021-BXNXILZEMEAWJZ0ZWE50/IMG_1147.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers This is the medium length stitch I used for my t-shirt pillow covers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613915093996-VOUT9VS83KI4EVGG3Y6D/IMG_1148.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers Step 4: Pinning the edge of the fabric together to prevent the two layers from sliding as you sew, place the foot of your machine at the edge where the arm holes are and start your seam. This will create the other two sides of the pillow cover. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613915569301-15BZBRUHUHUHH59M5MGA/IMG_1153.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers This is the pillow I covered. I bought it at Ikea. This is one of their feather pillow fillers & one of their black & white pillow covers. The t-shirts I used were size Men’s medium & the pillows from Ikea are 20”x20”. The fit was perfect. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613914936013-5QN81WITEMAXEHJCZES1/IMG_1144.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers Step 4: Use straight pins to keep the sides straight and place the foot of the sewing machine on the chalk line that was just drawn across the t-shirt. Sewing the seam here will create a straight edge where the neck used to be. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613913390101-WYRKPTKLUS7WP6LUCSQI/IMG_1426.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers Why leave those souvenir t-shirts in the closet?

Use the yard stick (or any straight edge) & a piece of chalk to draw line at the sleeves. Cut along the line to remove the sleeves. I tried to leave the sleeves on the shirt but it made the pillow cover too bulky in the corners. Now, turn the t-shirt wrong side out. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613915487587-SFW29M2FIL7GO88JPF5G/IMG_1151.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers After sewing the neck & the arm holes closed, here is the square with the bottom of the t-shirt open to pull over the pillow. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613949872148-NB27QFF3C4IZJ08M7ASO/IMG_1376.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613914808594-JOOS59BVV73R7CLOTEL9/IMG_1143.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers Step 3: With the t-shirt turned wrong side out, draw a chalk line across the entire front of the t-shirt (from sleeve to sleeve) just under the neck hole. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613915751710-KNAVEDMJODCC7W0Y0Z0T/IMG_1425.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers So here’s what my sofa & ottoman in my family room looks like for Spring & Summer! I love the colors & actually use the back of the t-shirt as the front of my pillows. There is a lot more color & interest on the backs of these particular t-shirts. I used an oblong/rectangular tablecloth I found on clearance at Walmart as my slip cover…. using the same method from my earlier post of sewing a slip cover. I’m not a big floral person but I loved these colors & they really popped with the Annie Sloane Yellow chalk painted side board that lives below the tv. I was truly amazed at how the colors all came together because I didn’t plan it that way! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613915417670-K9DG9LG2UZUZ6K5DMD3A/IMG_1168.jpg BLOG - T-shirt Pillow Covers I also had some strips of Velcro on hand & tried these as well on a couple of the pillow covers. I liked both types of Velcro. https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/celebrating-love monthly 0.5 2021-02-15 https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/o1rncvgwy3kbmnwe15m3lqaue3l7l7 monthly 0.5 2021-02-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613272636929-UAN3RPVIPFJYC8DGOBG0/IMG_1512.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls Once the plastic bowls were removed, this was the result! Beautiful!!

To keep the top bowl pressed down into the concrete, I used a couple of large rocks to keep the pressure on the concrete until it dried. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613272018551-20IFCJQTA8TD7T8OIUY1/IMG_1499.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls Cooking oil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613271178088-0E8KHV8ISONHVSIVK3ZV/IMG_1497.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls The bowls - inexpensive nesting sized plastic bowls. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613271677258-NIWZYYXSOE24TQA6R55H/IMG_1498.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls Fast setting concrete - beware this stuff is heavy lifting!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613272296643-ZD510G37W8NQT5J67J96/IMG_1500.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls STEP 1: Grease the plastic bowls with the cooking oil. Grease the inside of your larger bowls, grease the outside of the smaller bowls. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613272847394-KTJ1AWOZ02WFHR07OQ5R/IMG_1528.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls Just can’t get enough pictures of these!! They turned out great & I love this look of the concrete with the tree trunk table! Not to mention this is in my parents beautiful back yard - so the setting was a perfect place for the reveal! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613272685321-9AXZIP5PJA6W8EJ529RV/IMG_1517.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls STEP 4: Once the bowls have set overnight, remove the plastic bowls from the concrete bowls. Just a little wiggling of the plastic bowls will do the trick! The cooking oil will allow the plastic bowls to remove easily once the concrete is completely dried. You can now reuse the plastic bowls again for another round of concrete! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613272506107-SYBITA0MIUWZWZNOCLWP/IMG_1503.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls STEP 2: Mix the concrete in a large bucket. I used a shovel for mixing. Remember to work quickly - this is fast setting concrete! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613272880742-KCQ4RGMASYS1HJBVEDUE/IMG_1519.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls My favorite picture of all, this is my sweet Dad’s hands holding the bowl I made for my mom. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1613272723090-P50O33CSGB65ZU2EF1GX/IMG_1517.jpg BLOG - Concrete Bowls STEP 5: Once the concrete has cured completely - (this may take a couple of days), lightly sand the tops of the bowls to smooth the rough edges. https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/i-can-do-hard-things monthly 0.5 2021-02-08 https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/restoring-a-tired-slip-cover monthly 0.5 2021-01-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117360625-8L20U8KDWDFL1EO9DFST/DSCN1242.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover Once the hemming was completed, I centered the fabric on the ottoman, making sure it was flat & hung even on all sides. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117717586-AHLTB21V5BP6FY45S7AG/DSCN1268.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover By pulling the corners tight & making a simple fold over this crisp finish can easily be achieved! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117639605-4VWLMRWLNMGPW2BCMRGU/DSCN1264.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover Here's the completed project - ready for kicking up our feet & relaxing!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117288448-85U30E5Y5E68ZTYVJG46/DSCN1240.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover After choosing some awesome fabric, I started sewing a simple hem around all four sides of the piece. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117870601-2J39DQSWXO7E0RZ9VR33/DSCN1274.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover Come on in & chill out!!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117427476-P964OE59AEFTV9ZSVB83/DSCN1243.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover Double checking that the sides are perfect! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117801033-BZYII5RFOSJ56JMBB1G4/DSCN1273.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover Beautiful!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117558303-MCW6KZ3D80H7HOAI74FT/DSCN1247.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover Continue stapling around the edges until the cover is secured on all sides. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117185166-B5PDK70UZDRN5604JRVX/DSCN1239.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover This is my tired slipcover that desperately needed an update! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/1612117504921-MJ7XFH80AR7S9CW9K4SF/DSCN1246.jpg BLOG - Restoring A Tired Slip Cover Pull the fabric tight & get the staple gun going! https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/peace-please monthly 0.5 2021-01-31 https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/category/Mason+Jars monthly 0.5 https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/category/Sweet+Memoires monthly 0.5 https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/category/Encouragement monthly 0.5 https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/category/Legacy monthly 0.5 https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/category/Mothers+Day monthly 0.5 https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/category/Generations monthly 0.5 https://www.restorationchick.org/blog/category/Spiritual+Heritage monthly 0.5 https://www.restorationchick.org/home daily 0.75 2021-08-29 https://www.restorationchick.org/bio daily 1.0 2025-01-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6016dc97645a930edf9a2fb7/c4b9333c-329b-4682-a781-66b474baef4e/FullSizeRender.jpeg
