00:02 Oh, good morning everyone.
00:09 Or afternoon.
00:11 Oops, I just made this pillow for my dog,
00:14 but it's so comfortable, I fell asleep on it.
00:17 Maybe I'll just keep it for myself.
00:19 I'm kidding Fluffy, I'm just kidding.
00:23 Boy, this pillow's in demand.
00:25 And I'm gonna show you guys how to make one for your dog.
00:27 First, intro finger dance.
00:30 (upbeat music)
00:32 To make this amazingly comfortable pillow
00:37 for your dog or yourself,
00:39 you will need two pieces of polar fleece,
00:41 four feet by four feet, four to six safety pins,
00:44 three rubber bands, a pair of scissors, a piece of chalk.
00:47 (dog growling)
00:50 Ben, Ben, hello?
00:52 Stay with me, just a few more.
00:54 String and an old pillow or old clothes
00:57 that you don't need or want or use anymore.
00:59 (children cheering)
01:00 Okay, we're ready to go.
01:02 So first, decide what shape you want your pillow.
01:05 You can make it anything.
01:06 Square, triangle, rhombus, octagon.
01:10 I'm gonna make mine a circle.
01:12 First, take your two fabrics and fold them in half,
01:16 then fold them in half again.
01:17 Now, take your string and your chalk
01:20 and tie the string around the middle of the chalk
01:22 and hold the string in the corner
01:24 and draw a quarter circle.
01:27 Okay, now take your scissors and cut along the line
01:32 to make two identical circles.
01:34 See, two identical circles.
01:37 Now get a few safety pins
01:38 and pin them wherever you feel like you need to.
01:42 This just keeps the two pieces of fabric together
01:44 so you can cut the fringes more easily.
01:46 Take your scissors and start cutting the fringes,
01:49 one inch by four inches.
01:50 And don't worry if they're not perfect,
01:52 they're not supposed to be.
01:53 It's Fringe Man, let it be wild.
01:56 Ta-da, the fringes are cut all the way around the fabric.
02:01 Only a few more steps.
02:02 Now, unpin them and just make sure not to poke yourself.
02:07 Take the top fabric, flip it over, find the middle,
02:11 make a little knot and twist it around.
02:13 Then, take your three rubber bands
02:15 and go ahead and wrap them around.
02:17 See, now you have a cool design in the middle.
02:21 Now flip it over again and just tie your fringes
02:24 three quarters of the way around the circle.
02:26 See, the fringes are tied three quarters of the way
02:30 around the circle, leaving a little hole.
02:32 Now, just take your old clothes that you don't want anymore
02:35 or your old pillow and start stuffing.
02:43 It's like Thanksgiving.
02:44 I'm thankful for my dog and for my cat
02:48 and for Harry Styles and his amazing hair.
02:52 - And my awesome friend, Ben.
02:54 - Oh, and my awesome pillow.
02:56 So now, just finish tying your fringes.
03:00 Don't forget to double knot and voila,
03:04 a beautiful fluffy dog pillow.
03:05 How'd your pillow come out?
03:09 Post a picture on my Facebook wall
03:10 or tweet it to me under the hashtag Sedona DIY.
03:14 And if you like this video,
03:15 give that old thumbs up button a click.
03:17 That would be pretty awesome.
03:19 And boy, after that, I'm ready for a nap.
03:21 I guess Fluffy's ready for a nap too.
03:27 See you next time, guys.
