dimensional paint 9.54USD - 5 pack - http://go.magik.ly/ml/1tjt/
Pillow case - $1.70USD - http://go.magik.ly/ml/1tjv/
Pillow insert - $1.99USD - http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10269818/
to see the video of how i made it click the video below!
If you don't have dimensional paint you can use a fabric paint pen, or use a paint brush
if you already have an extensive collection of acrylic paints you can also use a fabric medium which you add to your paints to turn them into fabric paint! (which is awesome knowing i don't have to go out and buy each colour i need in fabric paint if i already have a stash)

Fabric paint marker - http://go.magik.ly/ml/1tk0/
Chalk for sketching - http://go.magik.ly/ml/1tk3/
Drawl out your design using Chalk onto your pillow case
I recommend chalk because it wont stain and can be easy smudged off afterwards!
This is the paint i grabbed from Walmart
dimensional paint 9.54USD - 5 pack - http://go.magik.ly/ml/1tjt/
After drawing your design use the paint with its fine tip and draw out your design, when doing larger areas apply alot of the paint in a zig zag formation and use a tooth pick or brush handle to spread it out evenly to cover the entire eye.
Once finished let dry for 12-48 hours depending on how heavy the coat was
may i add my cat seems a hell of a lot more meaner the the potty barn... this is not a cat you want to cross... haha
and then your done!
and i didnt stop there!!
This one is super easy and you only need white! i love how this turned out, i placed the centre of the web offset from the middle a bit to give it some interest but this would be super cute with some spiders maybe glued on.
These are purely decorative pillows, i wouldn't recommend sleeping with them as the raised paint doesnt feel so nice on the skin, it feels cool to the touch but not against the face lol
Hope you enjoy!
