I just love shopping the Target Dollar Spot. I found it is a great way to spruce up your decor at a really affordable price! This fall the dollar spot has just been amazing! I found these cute Halloween dish towels last week, came in a pack together for I think $3, and when I got home I started thinking that when these were hung up you really wouldn’t actually be able to see the October 31st….which was the cutest part! So I had the idea to make them into a pillow! I had done this before last Valentine’s Day with heart placemats from the dollar spot, so I thought it would be fun to do it again!
DIY Target Dollar Spot Pillow
So here is what I started with. One towel that says October 31, and one buffalo check towel.
First I flipped the towels facing in on each other. After washing and drying the towels they weren’t exactly even so I did my best to line them up. I actually wet them with a spray bottle to stretch them back out to their normal shape. After they dried I pinned it all around except I left about a 6-7 inch gap on one side so that once mostly sewed I could flip it back over.
I just hand stitched it all around as I still have not been able to figure out my sewing machine! See below the gap I left so I could flip it around.
Then flip it around and you are able to stuff the pillow.
I still had an extra bag of Poly-fil lying around from when I made the Valentine’s pillows. This was about $3 from Hobby Lobby. It would be even cheaper with one of their $40% off coupons if not on sale.
Then stuff the pillow, I only used about half the bag, and finish hand stitching it the rest of the way around. Super easy and affordable Halloween pillow!
It added a great addition, and Halloween transformation, to my fall mantel!
This is about as scary of Halloween decorating that I do around here!!
