Top 100 Best New Home Products
In this issue, Time Inc.’s
This Old House added Paint-A-Pillow to its fifth annual “This Old House Top 100,” a list of the 100 best new home products of the year. Each year, the editors spend months scouting, testing, and culling countless new products for the home to identify the most distinctive, useful, and innovative in seven categories: Kitchen, Bath, Tools, Home Tech, Building Products, Outdoor Living, and Finishing Touches.
Editor Scott Omelianuk comments, “Home companies release thousands of new products every year, and our job is to highlight the ones with staying power—those that are in some way brilliant and will make our readers’ lives better."
This Old House suggests that readers consider using a
Paint-A-Pillow kit to stencil an accent pillow.
The article says, " Playing designer has never been so easy. This DIY kit lets you customize the
perfect accent pillow from a whopping selection of
160 stencil designs. You receive a canvas cover, a stencil, paint, brushes and a roller—even the pillow!—all in one box, delivered to your door."
If you're looking to recreate these color enthused accent pillows, it's super easy. Simply select the
Hacienda kit from Paint-A-Pillow, then choose a white pillow cover and sapphire blue and yellow ochre fabric paint. Watch the
accent pillow tutorial on our How-To page and you'll be all set!
