Making a Pillowcase Without Sewing By Saamia Ashraf

Are you the one who has zero knowledge of sewing yet you drool over every other diy sewing project?? Well then you are the right kind of person I'm making this diy for,  Things you will need: ^ A spare cushion (I used a square cushion you can use any shape). ^ A fabric of your choice printed/plain /painted ^ A pair of scissors And that’s about it …  To prepare for your pillow or cushion cover, take the fabric and iron it first to get rid of all the creases. Next this is done lay out the fabric on a smooth surface and place the cushion in the center now you could either roughly cut the fabric leaving 3,4 inches on all four sides* (If you`re making a square cushion). Or you could measure the size of your cushion and then leave extra 2 inch on all sides. Now as you have completed the first step you`ll be left with 2 pieces of fabric, lay both the pieces one on the top and one on the bottom of the cushion and start tying knots carefully each side until the end ,to further customize it

If you want to make your paper colorful you can add organic products like; tea leaves, turmeric powder etc. or you can add watercolors and poster paints. Take your strainer (it can be of any size and shape) Immerse the strainer in the bowl in which is your pulp and then slowly bring it up out of the mix, until it is fully covered with the particles of pulp. Now, turn your strainer
