Easy Beaded Pillows

Make beautiful, high end, beaded pillows without stitching on a single bead! We used beautiful stencils and E-6000 Fabri-Fuse glue to the the high end look of embellished pillows for a fraction of the cost. See the video tutorial here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aabNA4J88o">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aabNA4J88o</a>

Step 1

Cut two pieces of fabric 19" x 19" Pin and stitch together using 1/2" seam allowance and leaving a 5" long hole Clip the corners at an angle Turn right side out and press flat

Step 2

Spray the stencil with a light coating of spray adhesive Center it on the pillow Fill the stencil with a generous amount of E-6000 Fabri-Fuse

Step 3

Remove the stencil and sprinkle the beads on the Fabri-Fuse *gently press down the beads if you need to Repeat with the other areas of the stencil Add a coating of clear acrylic IF you feel you didn't use enough glue *This will insure that you don't lose any beads

Step 4

For larger, more intricate stencils stick your stencil to the fabric Squirt a generous amount of glue along the side of the stencil Spread the glue with a piece of cardboard like a squeegee Remove the stencil Sprinkle the beads and let dry overnight
