I was at IKEA and found a pillow there on clearance for $2. I brought it home and turned it into a Grinch pillow for the holidays!
For this project you’ll need:
A pillow or green pillow case to go over a pillow
Optional dry erase marker
A black permanent marker
Red/Yellow Permanent marker
A grinch face of your choice… there are a ton of options online so find the one you like the best.
Optional Santa Hat
I turned my pillow so my Grinch would be inside a diamond shape to fit the appearance of his face. I started by drawing a nose in the center of my pillow so I could work my way out and I used a dry erase marker in case I didn’t like something. Then I could wash the pillow and start over.
I next drew on the eyes and eye brows around the nose.
I added his mouth.
I traced over all of the dry erase marker with a permanent marker.
I filled in his eye brows lightly.
I colored in his eyes red to match the movie when he is mischievous.
I added a Santa hat to the top of his head and he was finished. You could glue or sew this hat into place but I opted not to because…
I drew a face on the other side so we could have him up longer than just the holiday season. Now we can celebrate Dr. Seuss Day as well.

Very cute! My 4 year old has me play the Grinch song over and over. He’d probably love this pillow, LOL!

Oh my goodness, you are so talented, Chas! I was thinking you must have used a stencil for the Grinch but you’ve drawn his face freehand! That’s fantastic! What a fun pillow (love that it has the two sides too!) Thank you so much for sharing and for being a part of the Hearth and Soul Link Party. Hope to see you at the Christmas edition of the party which starts on Sunday 23rd December!
Thank you so much April. You are always so kind and supportive – I appreciate it. I look forward to joining the Christmas edition – thanks! Merry Christmas 🙂
He is fabulous. I’m feeling inspired by the simplicity of the drawing you teach to make artist trading cards using your drawing ideas. Thx Thx for posting at Funtatsic Friday.
Thank you so much Michele and I’m so thrilled you are inspired – thank you for stopping by.
