D.I.Y Dreamy Donut Pillows

 
Here at Sugar Bay we love delicious donuts and everything to do with dunking and devouring them! In fact, we are so delirious about donuts that we took our donut addiction to the next level by showing you how to make your very own D.I.Y Dreamy Donut Pillows! Without the issue of sewing them together! 
 

Let's do donuts! 

Materials Needed:

  • Metallic Satin Apparel Fabric (In the colour of your favourite donut flavour)
  • White/Brown/Any Pastel Coloured Fabric (For your frosting)
  • Scraps of Fabric in various colours (For the sprinkles)
  • Scissors
  • Hot Glue & Glue Gun
  • Pillow Stuffing (Foam)

Step 1: 

Using a pencil, hand draw two large circles on the satin fabric. You can use a large bowl and a smaller one for the centre to trace out the shape. Cut them out carefully.


Step 2:

Place the fabric for the frosting on the traced donut fabric and cut into a shape you desire or into a smaller circle that fits the donut.


Step 3:

Stick together the two circles along the outer edges on the reverse side using the hot glue from the glue gun. Flip inside out and hot glue the frosting circle onto the donut. 
 

Step 4:

Stick together the inner circle leaving a small opening to stuff the pillow. Using Satin Fabric allows you to slightly burn the edges with a lighter to prevent fraying of the fabric.


Step 5:

Stuff the pillow with foam!


Step 6:

Cut out thin strips from the scrap fabric to make the sprinkles and glue onto the finished frosted donut. 


Here's a Decorative Donut Design Idea:

To give your donut an added distinctiveness, bedazzle the sprinkles with some stick on diamantés!



And there you have it! A divine donut pillow for sweet donut dreams!
