Ruffled Pillowcases

During her monthly sewing group, Terra from Mama Says Sew made these gorgeous ruffled pillowcases with contrast stitching. From a king-sized sheet, the ladies were able to make several sets, and the price came out to only $3 per pillowcase. I simply adore the pop of color in the turquoise thread and how it ties into Terra’s other pillow. Who would think such a little bit of thread would make such an impact!

Pleated Bed Skirt

Mary Anne from Purposedly Reinvented had been on the lookout for a bed skirt without ruffles AND a ridiculously expensive price tag. She loved the look of a simple pleated style and decided to get creative and make her own with a fitted twin sheet. Mary Anne’s bed skirt not only looks great, but it requires minimal sewing and doesn’t shift!

The Cupkateer version? $5! Ananda even breaks it down for you step-by-step with patterns and all so you can make your own!

Round Rosette Pillow

After getting some new bedding from Anthropologie, Camille at Sugar Baby Boutique was smitten with their round rosette pillow as soon as she laid eyes on it. However, as fabulous as it would look on her beloved new bedding, Camille says, “$78 for a small accent pillow wasn’t going to happen any time soon. Especially when I made my knock-off for F-R-E-E.” How sweet is that? This is one of the closet knockoffs I’ve seen in awhile!

Crib Skirt with Trim

Kristin of The Simple Things tends to have high end tastes, so it was no surprise that the only bedding she loved for her baby girl on-the-way was crazy expensive. “So, what does any good DIY-lovin’ gal do?” Kristin asks. Why, gather up her fabric and make one herself of course! Kristin honestly makes it look as easy as pie… all the way from the pretty pink trim to the “peek-a-book” grey that I adore!
