I just recently partnered with Shutterfly and am so excited to work with them over the next couple of months. I just love their products, don’t you? Today I am sharing with you a couple of home decor pillows that I created with Shutterfly. I was looking for a nice personalized Mother’s Day Gift for my Mom and Mother-in-Law that was different and unique.
First, I created a pillow that has the birth dates of each of her children. For the second pillow, I added this beautiful scripture that honors Motherhood. You can create your own personalized Mother’s Day pillows as well and it is easier than you might think.
To create the Mother’s Day Scripture Pillow simply follow these directions:
1. Click here to visit Shutterfly.
3. Select “Home Decor” and then select “Pillows”.
4. Click on the “In Your Words” Pillow, click personalize.
I created an 18 x 18 inch pillow. The front cover of my pillow was white and the back cover was ivory. You can customize the front and the back of the pillow. I chose to only customize the front.
5. You will see text boxes where you can enter the scripture text (or your own). To center the text on the pillow I left the top and the bottom text boxes blank. I used Cassia Bold text in a 120 font size and used all lower case letters for the following:
her
children
arise up &
call her
6. For the word BLESSED, I used Veneer font in a 120 font size.
7. For the scripture reference, I used the font Cassia Light in a 52 font size.
8. Preview your pillow to make sure that everything is spelled correctly.
9. Select “Add to Cart”.
10. If you have text boxes left blank, you will get this warning:
Just select ignore and it will save your project correctly so that you can now order it.
To create the Mother’s Day Birth Date Pillow simply follow these directions:
1. Click here to visit Shutterfly.
3. Select “Home Decor” and then select “Pillows”.
4. Click on the “In Your Words” Pillow, click personalize.
I created an 18 x 18 inch pillow. The front cover of my pillow was white and the back cover was ivory. You can customize the front and the back of the pillow. I chose to only customize the front.
5. You will see text boxes where you can enter your birth dates. To center the text on the pillow I left the top and the bottom text boxes blank. I used VENEER text in a 120 font size for all of the birth dates.
6. I added the names of each child in the bottom line using the font Cassia Bold and a 32 font size.
7. Preview your pillow to make sure that everything is spelled correctly.
8. Select “Add to Cart”.
9. If you have text boxes left blank, you will get a warning (see above). Simply click “ignore”. You should be able to complete your order.

It was hard choosing because there are so many items I would like to purchase. I think I would get the frame collage just like the Happy Joy Love 9 Circle, for our living room.
Jessica says
Love this idea!!
Sandra says
I really love the wood wall art, the acrylic prints are cool also. These pillows would make a great gift as well.

I have been using Shutterfly for nearly 10 years and have NEVER been unhappy with ANYthing I have gotten from them…..4 or 5 books…Christmas cards…collage picture…calendar…. AND it always arrives WAY before the anticipated “delivery date”…..
Andrea Stallman says
I want to make the dates of children pillow!

Wow! I didn’t realize all of the stuff that Shutterfly does! Since I seem to have pillows on the brain, I love the color block pillows that are featured on the Novogratz page!
Melissa K says
Loving the pillow idea and the clear serving trays!
Jana Weaver says
I make a yearly scrapbook through Shutterfly for each of my children. I would love to use the $100 to buy my next 2 that are completed just waiting for an awesome deal and saving up! I really love using Shutterfly!

I love shutterfly, their metal prints look awesome but I adore this pillow you just made! I think I may have to piggyback that idea!
Melissa M says
We just had family pics done a few weeks ago so I would get a canvas print.
theresa krier says

latanya t says
I like the glass prints.
Jeri says
Shutterfly has some great personalized gifts. I would use the gift certificates to build gift books for our aging parents who are experiencing dementia and recently had to move into assisted living. I would also create a book for our six year old grandson that was raised with us and moved to KS last year. He misses us and our home so very much. He’d love to have the memories.
Brenda says
love these!
Leigh Anne Borders says
I would love to get the collage frame.

I would love to have the Photo Gallery Canvas Print. It’s Gallery-wrapped edges allow you to hang with or without a frame. So nice.
Amanda says
I had no idea Shutterfly offered custom pillows! How cool! I love the verse you picked- so perfect for Mother’s Day. I certainly hope my children call me blessed someday :)
