Make a few No-Sew Bandana Pillow Covers to spruce up your home! I found these colorful bandanas and knew that they would make perfect throw pillows.

These beautiful pillows took minutes to make and require no sewing!

You can cover a tired existing pillow or buy pillow forms. The bandanas I bought were 21-inches square and I used pillow forms that were 16-inches square.

You would think all bandanas are the same size but I bought different ones to make a Shamrock Bandana Wreath and they were slightly smaller– so do check the size before you buy.

For this DIY, I used safety pins and velcro dots. The sticky back velcro dots I bought were not specifically made for use on fabric but adhered to the cotton fabric well. Since I didn’t plan to open and close the velcro (they’re just to hold the sides/flaps together) they worked out great.

You only need a few craft supplies for this project. I bought the pillow forms at Walmart and ordered the bandanas through Amazon (link below in the supplies list). The adhesive velcro dots and green twine came from Dollar Tree.

Supplies

  • 21-inch bandanas (you’ll need 2 bandanas per pillow)
  • 16-inch pillow forms
  • Twine or Ribbon (I used twine to tie the ends of the green pillow)
  • Adhesive-backed velcro fastener dots
  • Safety pins

How to Make the Fuchsia Button Bandana Pillow Cover

STEP 1:

Lay the bandana (like a diamond) over the pillow form. Flip the pillow over and use safety pins to secure at the corners.
