Next, you need to turn the fabric on the front side and fill the pocket with the selected filler. It will remain at the end to sew up the last side with an internal seam and attach the ribbon to the very center. The edges of the tapes are treated with a transparent nail polish.
Decoration of crafts in the corners
The pillow for the rings for the wedding can be decorated in a slightly different way. The white fabric base is sewn using the previously described method, connecting the two parts of a square shape. The product is decorated using a piece of organza, with which the pillow is sheathed so that the printed pattern is obtained in the corners and in the center.
You can highlight the center point with a flower of beads, sewing decor through the whole craft. Thus, a small dent forms in the middle of the pillow. This is done in order to fix the position of the rings. Do not forget to sew a thin ribbon, because it will be attached to it before the ceremony.

After creating a pattern, such a pillow for rings is sewn together with a wide ribbon. She can encircle the whole craft or leave it only on the front. The color scheme of the ribbon, you can choose any, except black, of course. White fabric is decorated with pasted rhinestones, pebbles, beads. The color of the decorating elements can be neutral - white or transparent, however, elements matching the ribbon in color will look beautiful.

The place for rings is fixed with a brooch of two hearts. The ends of a thin ribbon hang with long ends. During the ceremony, it is on them that one and the other rings are attached.
Delicate craft
Satin crafts for the wedding ceremony will be gentle and romantic if you choose pastel color of the fabric. It can be pale pink, peach and even pale lilac. Finishing is selected exactly to match the base. The lace insert should occupy a large half of the total area of the front side of the product.
To attach the rings, use a wide dense ribbon in tone, so that the rings do not fall out, but stay on the bow loops. They are pulled right up to the knot. The edges of the tape are treated with PVA glue so that they do not shag. At the corners, beads in the form of droplets will look interesting.
Craft from wide ribbons with weaving
