But i needed a pillow to lay my head on when I took a summer snooze.
I saw this for 50% at JoAnns
It's one of those plastic table cloth with the soft fuzz on the inside.
I knew I could use this
so cut this little baby up.
I had an old pillow that I just wrapped it around (it was already wrapped in faux leather (pleather)
I wrapped it much like a present...HOT gluing it all along the way. I tried to make it so it was totally sealed up.
So much cheaper than buying them from Walmart! and I konw that the fabric store has rows of outdoor materials...but I wanted something fast and easy....and I wanted to use my hot glue gun!
Now, I won't leave this outside. I will only put it out when I need it or when I want my deck to look pretty. I know it's not 100% water proof but it should hold up pretty good. and if something happens to it...just cut it off and wrap up some more!
I also use some to put on my old outdoor table. I buy a piece of plastic and put it over it. By the end of the summer the stripes will be faded so I just replace it each spring!
(Enjoying the one sunny day we had. it rained later that day!)
