2. Pillow Covers
Pillow covers are an excellent way to refresh your home decor without spending much. They are simple to make and allow you to experiment with different fabrics and textures.
What you will need:
Fabric of your choice, measuring tape, scissors, pins, and thread.
Steps:
- Measure your pillow and cut two pieces of fabric to size, adding a half-inch seam allowance.
- Place the fabrics together, right sides facing each other, and sew along the edges, leaving an opening for inserting the pillow.
- Turn the cover right side out and insert the pillow.
- Stitch the opening closed by hand or use Velcro or a zipper for a removable cover.

Pillow covers can be made in countless styles, such as envelope closures or decorative trims. It is a perfect beginner project that adds instant charm to your space.
