Inspiration: Design it yourself Martha Stewart Ring Pillows

Wedding ceremony ring pillows are a small but important detail. Give the symbols of your love the transport they deserve with these great ideas!

Patterned Fabric Ring Pillow

We think a homemade ring pillow has tons more charm than most store-bought options. Choose a pretty fabric and sew your own from a pair of squares. (If the thought of needle and thread makes you itch, enlist a crafty friend.) Secure bands with a ribbon tacked to the top.

Ribbon Ring Pillow

A handmade ring pillow will look lovely from all angles when its sides are crafted from pretty ribbon. To give the cushion a tufted effect and to provide a spot for the rings to nestle, add a button by stitching all the way through. Attach the rings by tying them to the button with a thin ribbon.

Velvet Leaf Ring Pilow

Embossed velvet leaves, made with a rubber stamp and an iron, dress up a silk ring pillow. Go here to learn how to design your own Velvet pillow.



Floral Ring Pillow

Create a soft, plump pillow using flowers instead of fabric. Cut a block of floral foam to size and poke 'Kermit' chrysanthemum stems into top and sides. Push a U-shaped piece of green floral wire through foam; bend tips flush against bottom of block. Cover bottom by pinning paper over. Tie rings to wire with ribbon.

Vintage Linen Ring Pillow

It's only fitting to present the symbols of a new union on a beautiful "something old": a pillow embellished with an heirloom handkerchief or another vintage linen. A few stitches keep everything in place and can be snipped later. If you don't have a vintage piece, you can find one at a flea market. Go here to design your own Vintage Ring Pillow.

Silk Flower Ring Pillow

Silk flowers add elegance to a ring pillow. A crisp fabric holds its shape well; we used silk dupioni, shantung, and taffeta. Go here to design your own Silk Flower Pillow.

Happy Planning!
