No Sew Ruffled Pillow
Throw pillows are great on the couch or bed but who wants to spend $20 for a pillow? If you make your own, you don't have to. You can make a great ruffled pillow from a ruffled table runner. You just have to fold it over and iron to create a crease and then use fabric glue to hold it together. Once you have glued three sides together, stuff with pillow stuffing and then glue the final side. This is the easiest way to make throw pillows ever and you can create them from numbers of fabrics.

T-Shirt Restyle
Any old t-shirt can be turned into a great fashion piece with just a little time. You can cut the neck of a t-shirt wide, like a boat neck with the back just a bit higher than the front. Then just cut down through the sleeves and double tie that section. Cut the remaining sleeve into a shredded look and you have a great fashionable shirt from an old t-shirt that costs you nothing, provided you have an old t-shirt lying around the house.
