So I'm starting my own Etsy shop, and I have lots of ideas for things to make, but I don't have many materials (plus no job stressed ), which will limit my product range for a while. One thing I really want to make is decorative pillows in the shape of Christmas items. So which shapes do you think would make the best/cutest/most useful pillows? (Pick up to three if you want and post them heart )
A peppermint
A Christmas tree
A snowman
A star
A snowflake
A piece of holly (three berries and two leaves)
Santa and elf hats
Snow globe
Any other ideas?
Thanks for your help!

..............................................
I'd go for a Star as my first option... usable even after Xmas. And snowflake because that would be amazing! And... snow globe, because that would be amazingly comfortable 4laugh
No Xmas balls?

I'm definitely doing Christmas ornaments, so that's why I didn't put them on the list. They're my favorite heart Plus I can embroider the name to look like a shine on the glass.

Snowflakes are probably the hardest, but they sound like they could be really beautiful. I wouldn't mind a star, a peppermint, or a piece of holly either. Those all seem the most useful.

Thanks very much whee I'm tempted to try my hand at snowflakes; it'll be kinda difficult, but if I pulled it off it would be so worth it.

Snowflakes are my first choice, but seems that they would take a really long time---
I saw some pillows somewhere last year that would be pretty quick to make. They were just felt-on-felt, with the designs added with fusible interfacing. They were very pricey, but looked gorgeous! Just solid backgrounds with a different colored applique, there were snowflakes, reindeer antlers, ornaments----They probably had piped edging, the same color as the applique. In fact, they may have been just pillow covers, intended to be stored all the rest of the year. An envelope back on the pillow with a button or velcro would work for that.
