Hi, everyone! The below post is an oldie but goodie here at Mom Home Guide. My spring garden is looking beautiful right now with all the daffodils and tulips that my daughters helped me plant last fall. (Thanks, girls!) I hope to get into the garden and plant some more flowers soon.

Easy Cloth Napkin Pillows

written by Lauren

easy, craft, sew, diy, napkin, pillows

Hello! I am back talking about easy DIY pillows again. (I last posted about my cloth placemat pillows.) As you probably know, I am in LOVE with my new Mohawk Home area rug, and my La-Z-Boy sofa, which I adore dressing up and making look pretty. So, when I  found 4-packs of cloth napkins on sale at Target for less than $3 a pack, I had to snag them! I just love the pretty prints. I knew I could transform the cloth napkins into DIY cloth napkin pillows for my new La-Z-Boy sofa! I bought three packs of the cloth napkins. Since four napkins are in each pack, I could make Continue reading...

DIY Simple Placemat Pillows

written by Lauren

DIY, craft, placemat, pillow, Target

I am loving the yellow and green placemat pillows that I made for my brand-new La-Z-Boy sofa! These sofa throw pillows were so easy to make -- I simply made them by stuffing two-sided cloth placemats with pillow stuffing! It took me only about 20 minutes to make these pillows -- I actually finished stitching them when the truck that delivered my new sofa pulled into my driveway! Talk about last minute! Simple Placemat Pillows I love how the yellow and white and green and white and yellow pillows add pops of color to the sofa. I also adore the edging around the pillows -- I didn't Continue reading...

Painted Craft Birdhouses

written by Lauren

craft, paint, green, bird, house

Monday was my kids' first day back to school after a week with the flu. My husband, kids and I all got a bad case of the flu this month, even though we all got our flu shots! Having the kids home for a whole week got a little tough at the end. Even though my kids were under the weather, they were starting to get bored! Luckily, I had some craft supplies and a box of acrylic craft paints on hand, and my daughters and I spent a fun afternoon together painting birdhouses! The birdhouses and paints are relatively inexpensive and can be found at just about any craft store. DIY Painted Continue reading...
