Yep, BB Frösch isn't just for furniture. I wanted pillows to match our coffee table, but didn't want to pay an arm and a leg in the process, so I headed over to Hobby Lobby to find fabric to attempt sewing my own, but I couldn't find fabric that matched. Then it hit me, why don't I try BB Frösch?!
For the first pillow I taped down the edges of the pillow, to leave a white border from the pillow, then I painted in the rest of the pillow using the same hashtag strokes you use with chalk paint. After letting the arrows dry, I pealed off the vinyl sticker and....ta dah! Pillow #2 was about the same process. This time I cut out herringbone pattern for the stencil. I did the main section the same blue (as the other pillow and coffee table), and the one strip on the side gold. {side note} I brushed a little clear wax on the top of the pillows, but I didn't think it really make a big difference to have it on there for this particular project. But usually, I would always recommend brushing on wax to complete the bonding of the piece with the chalk paint and also for durability. And here we go! To finish off the pillow project, I added a couple more cheap pillows from Hobby Lobby for a project grand total of $30! Not to shabby for a custom color pillow project. BB Frösch, you've done it again!
