Girlfriends staged a competition and invented 15 useful things from old pillowcases.
Part with old and even unnecessary - always slightly sad. Hand does not rise to throw out old pillowcases? Then let the will of the hands and fantasy: turn them into here such useful things for the house. No one can guess that even recently slept sweetly on them.
If at home there are many unclaimed pillowcases.
If some old old pillows accumulated at home, then you have an excellent material for creativity. See what the needlewoman with all over the world turns. Maybe you will inspire you?
1. Neat apron
Kitchen Apron from old pillowcase.
Even in the kitchen nice to look good. And a neat cute apron contributes to this.
2. Bag for washing
Compact washing bag instead of the usual basket.
Not just a functional thing, but also the decoration of the bathroom. But everything that needs to be done is to enhance the tightening lace. Now the bag can be hung on the door handle or hook in the bathroom and save space.
3. shopping bag
Instead of a package with packages.
Because it is better to make such a neat bag once than to constantly buy a package at the checkout. And get rid of finally, from the package with packages in the kitchen.
4. Elegant replacement photo album
Envelope for bright memories.
Old photos are the grains of our memory, and they are worthy of beautiful cut. If cumbersome photo albums do not like, replace them with such neat envelopes, stitched from dense pillowcases. Each envelope can be decorated with embroidery.
5. Sew skirt
Skirt from pillowcase.
What? If the pillowcase was from a beautiful cloth, then why not? Do not disappear good.
6. Clutch or handbag
Summer Handbag
If at home remained accessories from the old bag, you can sew a new body from a beautiful pillowcase for it. Not bad option for the summer.
7. Slippet.
A set of beautiful napkins from old pillowcases.
This idea does not take much time to implement, but will allow you to revive the festive table. Just cut the pillowcase on equal fragments and step them up with basic stitches on the sewing machine.
8. Kitchen towels
From the napkins there will be beautiful towels for the kitchen.
Move on the same principle as napkins. Just take a little more fabric and do not forget to sew a loop.
9. Make simple hangers not so boring
Hangers who will decorate the room.
Provence-style hangers will decorate any female bedroom or wardrobe. And you need to sew a cover of two pieces of old pillowcase with a floral print for them.
10. Or sew covers for clothes
"Clothing" for clothes.
Because expensive dress or elegant costume deserves its own "room". And looks such a case much better than ordinary cellophane.
11. Clean the blades of the ceiling fan
That's so much easier.
If you have a lamp-fan at home, then you will save a bunch of time on its cleaning. Instead of getting a stepladder and climb on it with a brush, you take the old pillowcase and earn a long lace tightening. Now just throw the resulting bag on the blade, with the help of a lace, move back and forth - and all the dust will remain in the "case".
12. Make a drawer for toys and all sorts of little things
Storage box from a cardboard box and pillowcases.
Store small things in ordinary boxes - somehow boring. But if you cover them with the cloth from old pillows - another thing!
13. Make a compact backpack for shape, "shift" or bikeroguloc
You will need only tightening laces and half an hour of time. And in such a bag, wearing a sport form or replaceable shoes will be many times more pleasant than in the package.
14. Fashionable Wide Belt in the style of "Kimono"
Wide belts on the waist again in fashion.
Wide belts, as in the 80s - one of the main trends of 2018. If there is no desire to spend money on the next trend, seek such a belt for yourself. And the tight cloth of pillowcases will be nice to keep the corset form.
15. Mattress for recreation, falary and children's games
Homemade mattress from pillowcase.
And at the same time raised guests, unexpectedly gorgeous relatives and other "nights". It will take 4-6 pillowcases, a soft filler (for example, cotton, syntheps, fragments of unnecessary fabric) and a sewing machine. The result is worth the time spent: sleep on such a mattress will be much nicer than on the folding glass.
