Create Your Own Milk and Cream Pillows

While my Milk and Cream Stencil was out
I decided to keep the paint wet and create another project with this great stencil.

Create Your Own Milk and Cream Pillows with a stencil and paint

 Angie from Knick of Time created this beautiful stencil. 

I am including Amazon Affiliate links so you can find the products you need to create this project. Homeroad receives a small fee from your purchase and there is no additional cost to you. 

Not only did I use it on the Rustic Tray I just made but I decided to give it a try on fabric for a beautiful farmhouse pillow cover. 

I will admit, I didn't make these pillow covers, it was easier to buy them. They had zippers and were the perfect size and color. 

Using this short-cut made the project quick and easy. 

Create your own Milk and cream pillows using paint, stencil and a store bought pillow cover.

Step one was to iron the pillow cover.  

I used cardboard inside the pillow so paint wouldn't leak through the layers. 

I sprayed spray adhesive to the back of my stencil to prevent paint leakage then using a foam pouncer, dabbed on the paint with light coats. 

I used Fusion Mineral Paint for this project and yes it is washable.

I draped the pillow covers over the drying rack to dry. This very cool tobacco drying rack came from the Country Living Fair in Rhinebeck, NY one year.... now that's a fun road trip!

All that is left to do now is to stuff the pillow cover!

      Thank you Carole! Stenciling on fabric is easier than on anything else! The spray adhesive is the key!

    I have been eyeing that Knick of Time stencil forever ... and this sent me over the edge! Ordered the stencil and picked up some pillow covers at Ikea this weekend. Wahoo!
