most fabric paints require drying
time, so be sure to check the
directions before proceeding to
the next step.

tying knots around the edge of
your pillow.
A single knot worked
fine on our pillow.
Leave one side open. |

Next, take bunches of the
poly fiberfil and start stuffing your pillow to the desired fluffiness.
Be sure to fill the corners.
Once pillow if full,
continue tying knots to close up
the open end.
