Iron the burlap pillow squares if needed to remove any wrinkles. Place a piece of card stock between the two layers and add a monogram or saying using the letter stencils and fabric paint. Apply the paint with a foam brush using an up and down blotting motion.
Prep the burlap leaves by applying an even layer of Mod Podge across them using a foam brush. This will help make the leaves sturdier and allow the fabric glue to adhere more evenly. Lay on wax paper (or similar) until they dry.
Once the leaves are dry, add them to burlap pillow by squeezing fabric glue around the edges of the leaves. Smooth down to ensure all edges are adhered to the pillow. Keep a piece of cardstock between the layers to prevent any glue from seeping to the back of the pillow. Let dry completely.
Stuff the pillow with fiber fill and zip close! These pillows look sweet displayed indoors or outdoors on a covered porch.
