to make the shabby rose look then just sew the rose onto a plain (i used black) round pillow. I made my own throw pillows Just cut out two circles then a long rectale strip thats about 1.5" longer then the circles in diameter. then sewed it all together to make a spere shaped pillow.(make it as wide/tall as you disire.. mine were about 4")... sorry if that quick how to didnt make any sense
