    I can buy outdoor cushions for $5 at Walmart. Shower curtains plus the inside 'pillow' will cost about the same. This is why women aren't sewing their clothes like they used to a few generations ago, fabric is so expensive, so it's cheaper and saves time, to buy clothes at thrift stores or on clearance.

      Me too. I needed dresses for summer and I'm so overweight I couldn't find anything. I bought everything I needed and I did see 6 dresses but it was so expensive. It's an incentive to lose weight and buy clothes at Kmart, Target or Big W.

    I purchased a fabric shower curtain on clearance from Walmart last year and am using it as a table cloth. The amount of fabric you get from a shower curtain is well worth $5 to $10; it's cheaper than paying for it by the yard nowadays.

  • @darlenepurcell
    @darlenepurcell 7 місяців тому +6

    Using a shower curtain is a great waterproof pillow idea. FWI...you don't have to cut but one long strip of material 15" wide by 45" long. Turn inside out and fold over fifteen inches on the back side. Sew the two sides shut and turn right side out. You now have a pocket pillow. You're right it's simple and a great outdoor solution for comfortable patio furniture!

    You don't need buttons for the pillow. You just need about 2"-3" overlap of the back. By using buttons, you guarantee that only one side will ever be used.

I actually purchased some wood...I want to say it said it was shims and that was too light and narrow....bring in the craft sticks.....still didn't work. Which one would you believe as real art....the one that lays on the wall or the one that has crisp sides and the piece sits off the wall? I just need to stop being lazy and cut the wood and make the frame. It was a good thought though.....I actually saw this on UA-cam and she used the wood it's like 2-3 inches thick.

    It seems that she really defeated her own purpose in making waterproof outdoor pillows, since she cut the corners off of each for the pillow to poke out. I mean, am I misunderstanding it? It seems like rain could just get in right through the little corners. It was a great craft, though!! I think that personally, I would just hand wash my pillows and once the rain has gone, leave them back out in the sun to dry. It saves plastic, too.

    Great ideas, however, I would have put the duct tape on the design side of the mats, so the white side would be plain white without the duct tape showing through. I ade pillows like that to match my living room decor, using fabric, not shower curtains. I like that I can remove the pillows to wash the cover. I made them soon after we moved to our current home in 1987. They still look great.

    For $11 plus tax for the shower curtain, for 4 place mats at $ tree at 1.25 each plus tax, plus the cost of the duct tape and the gorilla glue, then the hot glue, PLUS the time and effort, you could have bought a freaking rug from big lots for the same price if not less for that teeny weenie rug.
    Plus WHY didn't you use the whole shower curtain?

    #1--agree with other comment, duct tape on side that will be the bottom of the "rug" so you can't see it & better protect the seams when in use. And iron the curtain before glueing it down!

    Shouldn’t the side with the duct tape have been turned over and been on the back. That way it wouldn’t show through your great looking rug, wall hanging, artwork or etc. I love the concept, great use of shower curtains.

    I would have used white duck tape for the shower curtain project.

    Might be a nice table mat for a picnic table but I agree costly and didn’t like the duct tape showing thru!
