Hearty Heart Pillows

I am feeling love this season, of course I should, since it's so close to my favorite holiday, Christmas. Here is how I let my heart shine, by making heart pillows. There is really no use for them. But I still love too make them.

I think they're beautiful, and I disagree about them having no use! They could be used as pin cushions I suppose, but I think their greatest use is just to brighten up any bed or dressing table - and someone's day! I think they would make lovely little gifts.

Just as an idea, maybe you could put some dried lavender inside and sew on a little ribbon hoop at the top? Then they would be scented for someone to place inside a drawer or hang in their wardrobe :)

They're lovely. Well done!

Oh Sweetie, they are beautiful! The perfect thing for a girl with such a big heart to make. I love Un D's idea to make them sachets also. sweet smelling hearts to hang in the closet or to slip under one's pillow at night.
Love you big heart girl!

Beautiful heart pillows and a lovely post...Christmas is such a lovely holiday!

I hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas and I wish you all peace and happiness for 2009.

I've so enjoyed your blog and look forward to what next year holds.

They're lovely Queenie! I can also think of quite a few uses for your pillows. I'm not sure how big they are but they are just the right shape to fit into a sore neck. If you fill them with little beans they can be put in the microwave for a few minutes to use to soothe aches and pains or warm your toes. We call them wheatie or beanie bags here.

Thank you Undaunted,
I will try the ideas! I will stick them in my room on my favorite chair. My mom loves the smell of lavender I will have to grab some from her plant outside and stuff it in a heart for her.

Hi Aunt Leanne,
Thank you! A heart full of love is the soft coo of a dove. You have a big heart too! I love you!

I do too, Un D! It's so fun to look at! :D

Thanks Jacky,
Happy wishes to you and your family, also! Glad you have enjoyed my heart pillows! Happy New Year!

Hey Robyn,
Thanks for the idea! I have a sore neck often.(maybe its from bending over the computer to blog. hee hee!) I will have to try your idea! :D

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to every blogger!

Love,
