So I've been thinking about the ring pillow DIY I saw in your bio, and I drew a few things in Paint for some alternatives that might work...

(check email for pic because I failed miserably at uploading - weird)

Also, you could use coordinating fabrics from the same Joel Dewberry line, so it ties in with color...

And then there's a fabric option I thought might be really cool - white burlap. So I did a search on Etsy for inspiration pics, and these are all the burlap ring pillows that came up...

Totally piggybacking on this page, but also, where did you get your window from that you chalkboarded?  I totally have been wanting to do this.

braveangel- you are amazingly helpful I have been itching to tear that thing back apart. I like the drawing idea with the deer fabric around the corners and burlap in the middle with my fabric flowers and ribbon in the center. But I have never seen white burlap. Have you ever seen it anywhere local?

ennyann- I  got the window from our family beachhouse when the windows were redone. But have got a few more since off cl

butting in too.  I love those burlap pillows.  I am not at all crafty though and have no idea how to sew a button.   : (

Okay, Pearly (on the Bump) said she got it from Joann's in Lynnwood and that they have all sorts of colors. It might be worth checking into the one closest to you

jennuinne- are you having a ringbearer?

jennyann28

Oooh, good, I need to buy a metric buttload of burlap!

Also, thanks for the window tip.  I will check CL, and maybe hit up the ReStore in Seattle.

Yep, a flower girl and a ring bearer, even though no BM or GM.
