13 Floor Pillows to Sew for Your Home

April 5, 2023 by Anne Weaver

How can you add extra seating to a room without investing in a new piece of furniture?  Floor pillows!  These large pillows provide a soft spot for people to sit on the floor.  They’re great for when the kids have friends over watching movies or playing video games.  They can turn any corner into a little book nook and a soft place to read.  Or, stack a few of them up and you’ve got an ottoman where you can rest your feet. 

Floor pillows can be expensive to buy – especially when you’re wanting to get several of them – but they’re relatively inexpensive to DIY.  We’ve rounded up 13 great tutorials showing how you can sew your own floor pillows for your home.  

13 Floor Pillows to Sew for Your Home

Read on for all the pretty floor pillow sewing tutorials!  Round, square, tufted, smooth, patchwork, solid – there are so many ways to sew your own floor pillows!

Tropical Bird Crafts and Learning Activities

I don’t know why tropical animals feel like something you should learn about in the summer, because these tropical bird crafts and activities are great to do any time of year. Let’s take a look. 

Homeschool Giveaways has a printable tropical birds copywork book kids can use to practice cursive or print writing. They also have links to more fun printable activities, mostly about parrots, toucans and cockatoos.

Homeschool Share has a printable lapbook all about parrots. This one is a lot of fun because it includes things like the pros and cons of owning a pet parrot and some parrot jokes alongside information about where parrots live, why they have hooked beaks and their lifespan, among other things. 

Use colorful bird puzzles to reinforce number order with this free printable puzzle collection from Craft Play Learn. It includes five different bird puzzles that are each eight pieces. 

And if you want to look at toucans in particular, check out this toucan study guide aimed at elementary students from Tina’s Dynamic Homeschool Plus. This isn’t a free resource but it’s 31 pages all about toucans, their life cycle, anatomy, what they eat, role in the rainforest ecosystem, activities and more well worth the cost. 

How about some tropical bird crafts? This 3D macaw parrot from The Craft Train is a great one, also not free but super cute and easy to make with the printables. 

I Heart Crafty Things has a super cute parrot made with cardboard and card stock. If you hang it from the ceiling it will even spin.

Or try the cute cardboard tube parrots from Kids Craft Room, which kids will love to decorate (you could even use feathers if you have some). You can also make a parrot (or whatever other tropical bird you like) from a paper plate with these instructions from Crafts on Sea.
