A simple project,
to add a little....
...to Outdoor Christmas Decor!
Made for my MIL,
from a vinyl festive tablecloth (new, found at Goodwill for $1.99),
cheap dollar store pillows for inserts (Family Dollar, Maxway, etc., $2.50 each),
CRICUT Adhesive-Backed Vinyl Sheets,
and my sewing machine.
I have been known to hot-glue a pillow or two, but the glue didn't adhere well to the vinyl material, and the sewing was much faster.
~Quote by John Greenleaf Whittier
"Somehow, not only for Christmas, But all the long year through,
the JOY that you give to others, is the JOY that comes back to you.
And the more you spend in blessing, the poor and lonely and sad, the more of your heart's possessing, returns to you glad."
Please note, these pillows appear "softer" and not quite so stiff and shiny in person. The glare from the camera flash altered their appearance in the pictures.

Do you have a Cricut? I just got one several days ago...so am learning what it can do.
