DIY BOHO FLOOR PILLOW USING DOLLAR STORE RUGS
Supplies:
2 rag rugs
burlap (a 6″ strip long enough to wrap the circumference of the rug)
cotton string
yarn needle
a pillow and/or batting
Directions:
I wanted my floor pillow to be extra stuffed, so I used about a 6″ wide strip of burlap and whip stitched it in-between the two rag rugs. It is pretty darn easy to do, even if you are not some great sewer. The sloppiness of the stitch looks great with the roughness of the rag rug texture. You obviously could just whip stitch two rag rugs together, but I like the extra fun that the burlap gives the pillow, and the extra large size it helps create!
Once you have three sides of the pillow sewn up, it is time to fill it. Since this is just a floor pillow, I used an old pillow to stuff the casing. In truth, I even added a little batting because my pillow turned out to be so big that it needed the extra plump.
Once I was happy with the plumpness, I just whip stitched the pillow closed using the cotton string and the burlap.
Not only did the pillow turn out colorful and big, but the rugs gave my floor pillow a real sturdiness. This is one very indestructible floor pillow!
