I shared my Patriotic pillows last week, so now it’s time to show you my succulent and cactus pillow designs! They were so fun to create, and are all available at local shops – Wright on High and Midwest Memories.
Scroll through the photos and leave me a comment – tell me which is your favorite.
This green is such a fun color for the succulents and cacti. I sort of made up the color by combining a bunch of small containers of blues and greens to get them used up. Recreating this exact shade will be a challenge 🙂
Adding the flower details was my favorite part. The high quality, wool felt I purchased is so fun to work with and I’m finding myself quite addicted to playing with it.
Playing with all of my leafy stencils to create a unique design was fun. The flowers add a pop of color and help bring it all together where the stencils overlapped and the details were lost.
I can’t decide if I like this one best in the green or in the more neutral black. Which do you prefer? Scroll down to see the black option.
My middle daughter is in love with real cacti – her little plants made for good props for my photo shoot 🙂
All pillows shown here are size 14×14 and are filled with down alternative inserts. They have the feel and look of feathers.

Oh, so pretty, you are very creative. Not sure I have a favorite, I too like cactus…I have a set of three that were my Mom’s and they remind me of her everytime I see them in my windowsill.
How fun to have cacti that belonged to your Mom! my girls are all about Cactus stuff. For Christmas I found crochet cactus plants on etsy and had my Mom give them to my youngest. I wasn’t sure I was ready for the real thing and all those prickles 🙂 My middle girl has the real ones now but they aren’t either one the overly prickly kind.
I like all the ones that are done in black!
My daughter would love all of them.
Very creative! Thanks for sharing!
thank you Renee! These have been really fun to create.
I really like the green for these pillows. The cacti are just cute in green! But I can see that for some decor people would love the black. They’re all beautiful as usual! I love the felt flowers too. Can’t wait to get mine!
I like both! It’s fun creating both – I really like adding the fabric pot to the green option.
