What is a one-sentence summary of the following article?
Choose a trim that coordinates with your pillow, and a piece that is long enough to wrap around the edge of your pillow. Glue or sew the trim to the edge of the pillow. If there is a seam, use the seam as a guide.  Choose a trim that coordinates with your pillow. Fabric glue will work the best, but you can use hot glue as well. If you choose to sew the trim on, use a whipstitch and a thread color that matches the trim. Choose a wide, flat (not ruffled) lace trim. Cut a piece that is long enough to wrap around the front of your pillow, from seam-to-seam. Sew or glue the lace to the front of the pillow.  Use fabric glue, not hot glue. If you choose to sew the lace on, match the thread color to the lace. Use a similar shade for a subtle effect (i.e. ivory lace on a burlap pillow), and contrasting shades for a dramatic effect (i.e. black lace on a white pillow). Cut strips of ribbon that are the same length as the pillow. Secure them to the front of the pillow with hot glue or fabric glue. You can use iron-on adhesive too, but you'll have to remove the pillowcase first.  For a simple design, glue wide, embroidered ribbon along each of the 4 edges. For an intricate design, glue thin satin or grosgrain ribbon in a lattice or gridded design. Seal the ends of the ribbons with a flame before you glue them. This will keep them from fraying. Get a pillow with a large, simple design, such as a heart, then remove the insert. Get a bunch of flat buttons that are the same color. Sew them onto the pillow using the design as a guide. Do the outline first, then the inside. Put the pillow back inside the case when you are done.  Use different shades of the same color (i.e. light pink, medium pink, and dark pink) for more contrast. Use buttons that are different sizes for a more varied look. If you don't know how to sew, or if you can't remove the pillowcase, glue the buttons on with hot glue or fabric glue. Get a pillow with a simple design, such as a heart. String 10 to 12 seed beads onto thread, then stitch them to the outline of the design. Keep going until the outline is done, then do the inside of the design.  You don't absolutely have to remove the pillowcase first, but you can if it makes things easier for you. The beads don't all have to be the same color. Try different shades of the same color, such as: pink, red, and burgundy. Use some larger, fancier beads for accent areas. Secure upholstery thread to a shank button with a slip knot, then thread a needle. Push the needle through a pillow and out the back. Remove the needle, then slide each thread through opposing sides of the second button. Pull on the threads to tighten the tuft, then tie them in a double-knot. Buy matching fabric-covered shank buttons or create your own using a cover button kit.
