Personalized pillows are easy to make with the help of Rust-Oleum Photo Transfers. Learn how to turn a basic pillow into custom décor. The Fancy Farmgirls created this personalized pillow for inspiration.

PREPARE: Always work in a well-ventilated area and cover your workspace with a drop cloth to protect it from overspray. Print photos of your choice using a laser printer. 

PAINT: Using a foam brush, apply a generous layer of Rust-Oleum® Photo Transfer to the printed side of the photo and then place the photo face down on the pillow. Using an item with a hard edge (like a ruler or plastic card), press along back of photo to smooth out any air bubbles. Let the product and photo sit for 12 hours to cure.

After 12 hours, wet the paper with water until you see the image. Then, using a clean rag, rub in a circular motion to remove the paper backing. 

FINISH: Let the transfer dry and display your new personalized pillow.
