| Baked Spiced Chickpeas |
Almost two months ago I pinned this as well.
A pillow made to look like a campfire!!!Eeppp!!!
I pinned it and then emailed the maker, Kristin of Woolly Petals, and started asking how she made it. Cause even though she made it as a toy for her adorable son, I imagined it on my bed. Whatever. To each their own. Not that it isn't the greatest idea for a toy. Cause it totally is. It's just that my kids are sort of past that stage and I still wanted one.
Does that make me weird?
Wait. Don't answer that.
Well, one thing led to another and then Kristin agreed to write up instructions on how she made it, post it as a tutorial over on her blog, AND give one away here!
Sweet!!You can find the Campfire Pillow Tutorial here.
And after you check it out be sure to come back here and leave a comment to enter for a chance to win this, courtesy of Woolly Petals.

Pinterest is awesome and so is that pillow. I know my son would love to play pretend with it.
ReplyDeleteWe have a teepee! This would be perfect!
ReplyDeleteseriously cute. wow, people are so imaginative and crafty.
ReplyDeleteHow cute is that! I want one too! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy daughters would love that. I can't believe I haven't seen it floating around pinterest yet. I'm on there enough.

How fun!!! Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteI am holding off on jumping into pinterest as long as I can... but I love looking at what other people have found! That pillow is just too cute and I'd love to win one for my littlest nephew.
ReplyDeleteLove that pillow... I've been loving pinterest too.
ReplyDeleteI've been using it to share ideas with my 9yo... I pin them, then she can look at craft ideas when she has time.... instead of me forgetting where I saw what!
Okay I didn't get the pillow until I saw it in place for pretending!
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love peoples imaginations!
I am fighting with all I've got to stay away from Pinterest.......
Facebook too...
don't I spend way too much on the computer already!
I imagine it will take the place of bookmarking computers which is what I do now when I want to go back and look at something that sparked my interest.
fire pillow on your bed......now what are you thinking....hmmmmmmmm.
Happy Sewing,
Kim
How fun! That is a campfire that I can always get started. How were the chick peas? Guess I better check out some of your pins...and suck more time away from actually doing something productive.
ReplyDeleteI must try out pintrest.Love the pillow and so would my little boy along with a cute little tee-pee,I shall have to try making him one for the summer.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win.

Pinterest, Pinterest, Pinterest....how I love you Pinterest. Have plenty of ideas pinned, and have enjoyed trying out some of them too! The pillow is great. Wonder what my kids would think of it!
ReplyDeleteThat is the most perfect present for my parents. So please pick me. So I can give it to them. And earn daughter points. I'm sure you know what I mean.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Although not for MY bed ;)....but almost 4 year old grandson would adore this pillow for when we play camping together.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the opportunity to win this great pillow!
oh dana, my kids would love it. i think it is awesome you wanted one for your bed. you are super fun! nothing like warming your toes by your pretend campfire! ;) and pinterest... i totally understand!
ReplyDeleteoh dana, my kids would love it. i think it is awesome you wanted one for your bed. you are super fun! nothing like warming your toes by your pretend campfire! ;) and pinterest... i totally understand!
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome!! What a great blogger for giving us a tutorial! Thanks. I want one now.
ReplyDeletePinterest is so wonderful. Great stuff on there! And that pillow is darling. Love it!
ReplyDeleteAck, I love that pillow! One of the few gripes I have about my old house is that we have 2 chimneys but no fireplace. I have long said I'm going to buy a mantel, then quilt a fire for inside it - but this is even better!
ReplyDeleteBoth my DH and our best friends (and their DS) are avid campers. What a great tutorial for a fun gift for next Christmas.
ReplyDeleteOf course, if I was lucky enough to win it would make my gift list one item shorter. . . which would be a VERY good thing!!! LOL
I have a granddaughter that would love this pillow...how cute is this!
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine the fun our kids would have with that ... and Pinterest always makes me hungry with all those yummy food pictures!
ReplyDeleteThis is too stinking cute. I love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome! My kids would love playing with this.
ReplyDeleteI can spend hours on Pinterest just looking around. I have not run across this pillow though. I think it would look good sitting in front of my fireplace during the summer. It is very cute. If I am not lucky enough to win it I just I will have to make myself one. Thanks for sharing the tutorial.

My kids are past that stage too and I would totally want one. Thanks for the giveaway!! Pinterest is very addicting!
ReplyDeleteI am not here for the giveaway...because...oh, dear, how can I put this? OF COURSE it is a campfire, but the first thing I saw when the picture popped up was...someone made a pillow to look like a teddy bear on fire?!?!?
ReplyDeleteI love the pillow my kids would have so much fun with it!
ReplyDeleteI love pinterest
Thanks for the giveaway!!
OMG CAMPFIRE PILLOW! What an awesome little find over there on Pinterest, ya know some nights I got there to look up "laundry room" ideas, then somehow I get too "bunk beds" then a chicken nacho recipe lures me in and before ya know it Ive come full circle and back to "draperies" ha ; )
ReplyDeleteLove the pillow! My 3 boys are big into making forts and tents these days, this would be a fun addition to our play!
ReplyDeleteI just got on Pinterest a few days ago and oh. my. goodness. Time Sucking For Sure. That pillow is just too cute. My 3 grandsons would love to have that to go with the tent we have here for them to play in. the oldest granddaughter even had a camping themed birthday party one year!
ReplyDeleteWe have kids' tent begging for something this cute! Love it!
ReplyDeleteLove the campfire pillow! This would be awesome to be able to take on Girl Scout or Cub Scout camp trips when we are in a burn ban, which seems to happen every summer/fall here in Texas.
ReplyDeleteThat is just the cutest and I have 3 little nephews who will go crazy over it. Thanks for such a great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteThat is adorable. I think I need one right in front of my not so beautiful fireplace.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win.
L,A-
Oh it's just so fun! If I don't win I'll have to make one for Oblio.
ReplyDeletethat is just too cute!!
ReplyDeleteNow that's just darn cute! About Pinterest, I love it. But I have a friend who I am so worried about, she is posting every cocktail she can find. LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteThis pillow is adorable. I actually follow Woolly Petals blog and I loved it when she originally posted it. So glad she's doing a tutorial!
ReplyDeletePinterest is so addicting! I spoend hours on end looking and repinning:)
ReplyDeleteWould love to have the campfire pillow for my grandsons! Thanks for the giveaway!
My grands would have so much fun playing around a campfire! (And I was a Camp Fire Girl, all the way through high school, and then I worked at a CFG summer camp, so the idea of a campfire pillow makes perfect sense to me!)
ReplyDeleteI've made those spicy, roasted chickpeas. Hubby & I both really liked them. You have to pay close attention when cooking them (something I'm not known for, lol). There's a small window between them not being done enough to taste good, and being overly done.
ReplyDeleteI love the campfire pillow. I have a couple of little granddaughters I know would love it, too. I had fun going back through Wooly Petals older pages. She's very creative, and her quilts are lovely!
that pillow is awesome -and I am resisting pinterest as long as humanly possible... too many projects not enough time as it is... more ideas is the LAST thing I need! :-)
ReplyDeletei just love pinterest!, there are so many fun things on there. I adore that pillow too. I have been pinning teepee's too as a matter of fact. what a set that makes. my daughter would love it, so would i!.
ReplyDeleteI followed my sister onto Pinterest-I check it at least once daily *blushes* I have managed to get 60 followrs which makes me feel very loved! Loving the campfire-it is one of those things that will always make you smile! ( I can see it in my classroom, in my daughters tree house, oh the list is endless!)
ReplyDeletewould love to win! otherwise I might have to make one. =) thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteSo unique! Thanks for the giveaway! Amy @ gasudimack(at)sbcglobal(dot)net
ReplyDeletevery cute! my kiddos would love that! and good for you for tracking her down!
ReplyDeleteI read your blog all the time but rarely have time to comment these days. I totally wanted to play your photo game, but alas, it did not happen.
ReplyDeleteBut I've got to take the time to win this pillow for my daughter. It would be perfect for her Quilt Forts under the dining room table. :)
I am totally addicted to pinterest. That pillow is just adorable. I love it. I bet the boy would too.
ReplyDeleteI'm fairly new to Pinterest butalready have spent far too much time there! My girls would love this cushion (in the UK!!) in their playhouse in our garden! Thank you for sharing it. Even if I don't win I will make them one, but would love an original.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! My kids would love it!
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute and would be perfect for the play tents I have planned for my girls this spring
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute and would be great set up in the basement for my grandsons. I'll have to make on if I don't win one.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!! I may make it for the kids
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh- I want one of those SOOOO bad! My happiest childhood memories are of playing in a teepee my mom made me. My kids need the fire to go with the teepee (they still play with it!)
ReplyDeletemy boys would love this!!! how cute!
ReplyDeleteObsessed with pinterest!!
ReplyDeletethat is cute! It would be perfect for my kids' tent that they are going to be playing in as soon as I give it to them!
ReplyDeleteThe pillow is great! I'm also thinking that an outdoor teepee would be great for my daughter this summer.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cute idea!
ReplyDeleteAww cute! I love it too!
ReplyDeleteMy winter is all mixed up in Indiana as well.
We've usually had several snow days by now...but nope, nada!
It's crazy!
I LOVE that pillow...I saw something similar to it a while back ago. My Ren would LOVE it as well!
ReplyDeleteThat is just the cutest. An indoor campfire.
ReplyDeleteShowed that pillow to my neighbor's 4 year old son but he thought the bear was on fire - and he cried! We had to convince him the bear wasn't burning up.
ReplyDeleteDang, that's cute! Pick me!!
ReplyDeletePerfect for my cub scouts! Think they need to learn to sew now, LOVE IT!
ReplyDeletePintrest is my addiction. I can spend hours and hours just drooling.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea! My husband and son like to have camp-outs (tent and all) in our garage. This would be so fun to have to make the lets-pretend a little more real!
we are a camping kinda of family! my girlies would love that. i will have to make us one. thank you!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, that is TOO cute!
ReplyDeleteMy 6 y/o daughter has been "camping out" in the living room all winter. Tent, sleeping bag, little battery operated lantern, the works! She would LOVE this little stuffed campfire!
Thanks for the chance!
