Making a Mermaid Pillow in Cricut Design Space is a breeze thanks to all the awesome quotes and images available. My daughter’s room is mermaid inspired so I wanted to make her a personalized pillow. You can easily make your own pillow using Cricut Design Space, a blank pillow cover and some iron-on vinyl. Cricut has all colors, styles, and patterns to choose from.
