DIY gift guide: Sparkle 'n' shine pillow shams

 
We fell in love with these so-chic throw pillows from Pottery Barn Teen, but at $29 a pop for just the pillow cover, they’re out of our price range for ourselves, let alone the girlies we wanna gift! So what’d we do? Come up with a way-easy (and affordable) DIY!

 

What you’ll need:

A pillowcase (throw pillow size or a sham) and insert (or make your own and stuff!)

Sequins

Needle and neutral thread (or hot glue gun and glue)

 

What you’ll do:

Ever-so-lightly, sketch your design onto the pillow case using pencil. We love "XO", initials and cute phrases. Then, using either hand-sewing or using a hot glue gun, begin attaching the sequins. You want the edges to overlap, so start at one end of your design and continue in as straight and uniform a line as possible. When your finished, tie off thread (or set aside to dry completely), then stuff  the pillow (or zip-in the insert), wrap in tissue paper and gift!

 

Snag the original at pbteen.com and do a good deed--$14.50 of every purchase goes to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

 

Want more ideas? Try using the same technique on a canvas tote bag (find them at any craft store) or a t-shirt.

I think I have cancer. My friend's mom does too, and my family and friends are a bit worried. I'm getting tested for it the spring/summer. It would be thyroid cancer, and the risks of the surgery needed to cure it are vocal chord paralyses and trouble reaching high notes when singing. But the thing is, I'm a classical-crossover singer, so I'm SO, SO scared! HELP! THIS IS URGENT!




Aww hon im so sorry about this Frown dont freak out about it now though. You cant control what happens when you get tested. The only thing you can do is keep yourself healthy and take care of yourself until you hear the news. I hope everything works out for you hon. Stay strong. xoxo kerra

So I've got presents for all my girl friends (rings made of Mod-Podged puzzle pieces) but I have no idea what to get my guy friends! I have put it off so long! It doesn't have to be big or fancy (actually, the simpler the better). I just want to let them know I care, if you know what I mean. So do you have any ideas of gifts for my guy friends? And what do you think of my puzzle piece ring idea? Thank you so much Smile




I think guys would love some candy or something. Boys always love food. As for your puzzle ring idea i think its super cute! xoxo kerra
