My neighbors love it and I get several compliments a week.

The vintage bicycle rim has been used several times as a wreath for different holidays and occasions. It’s going to be fun sharing the tutorial with you as part of the Thrifty Style Team today.
What a beautiful first day of Spring!! Welcome to the Rock Your Knockoff Tour! It’s been a fabulous week with some incredible knockoffs from some of my favorite bloggers and friends.
Today it’s my turn to Rock MY Knockoff with you!!
While I was in Oregon this past week, my daughter and I shopped and shopped for what she wanted in her living room. After finding THE exact fabric she was looking for, we were set.
She wanted bold black and white striped pillows. Pottery Barn’s pricing is $39.50-$49.50 per pillow. Hmmm… Not bad, if you can’t make it yourself, I guess.
She found the black striped fabric at IKEA for $7.99 a yard. We were able to make 2 pillows for that price. Amazing! (The gold polka dot fabric was made into bedroom pillows. But, that is for another post)
Using pillow filling from older pillows, the cost was LITERALLY $7.99 for 2 pillows.
And what a beautiful contrast against the white sofa and blue pillow. I really love the drama of the black and white, don’t you?
The PB knock-off pillows anchor the room perfectly with the bold black and white stripes. They each add to the other black accents in her home. What a fun project for us to make together, too.
There you have it!! An inexpensive way to get the PB look without the cost. Yep, $7.99 for 2 pillows compaired to up to $49.50 for 1!!!

Happy Monday everyone. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I most certainly did. I had visits to the pool, a date with my Hubby, and painting some “new” thrifted pieces of furniture. I can’t wait to show you what I have been up to. BUT, today I have a Book Page Crafts Board just for you. It is filled with book page crafts chosen just for you AND made by me.
I started making book page crafts years ago. I have always felt that making a book page craft gives a worn and torn book new life.
