A huge thank you to Rachel over at The Ponds Farmhouse for organizing this round-up! Get ready for some fabulous DIY projects.

Valentine’s Day Pillows

I love pillows and even have an entire closet dedicated to my pillow collection.

Please tell me I’m not alone!? 🙂

One of my favorite ways to decorate for seasonal holidays is by changing out my pillows. I have 3 darling Valentines’ Day inspired DIY pillows linked below that you can whip up in no time at all!

1.Felted Heart Pillows With Pockets for Love Notes

Ok so these felted heart pillows are actually mini pillows. I made them with my mom awhile back and still love them to this day! A simple sewing, or more like stitching project, that you can do in an afternoon.

And who can resist the precious little pocket on the front for a sweet note?

These are perfect for your sweetie, your kids or even a friend! I even just tossed a few in a bowl and they were instant Valentine’s Day décor!
