Handmade ring pillow ideas
Among wedding DIY projects, ring pillows can be one of the trickiest and most daunting, don’t you think?

Even so, many people still want to make their ring pillow by hand.
Here, we’re sharing ring pillow ideas for brides-to-be.

Handmade Ring Pillow Ideas (11–20)
Handmade with 100-yen materials
100-yen shops keep getting more impressive every year, don’t they? Their selection is so vast it feels like there’s nothing they don’t sell.
And it’s not just the variety—many items are such good quality you’d never guess they cost only 100 yen unless someone told you.
Let’s use some of those 100-yen materials to make a ring pillow! These shops carry all kinds of display items, from small to large, and you’ll even find products that make you think, “This could work for that too!”—so you’re sure to come up with fun ideas.
Ring pillow made with artificial flowers
Artificial flowers are essential for wedding DIY, aren’t they? They easily add a touch of glamour, and you can display them as a keepsake after the ceremony—what’s not to love? Let’s make a ring pillow using perfect artificial flowers! Gathering small pieces tightly together is cute, but using a large bloom as the focal point looks gorgeous and is also easy to finish.
Big flowers are great because they stand out even from a distance.
Try creating one with your favorite flowers and frame!
Glass case ring pillow
A ring pillow using a glass case is a classic choice, isn’t it? If store-bought ones leave you a little unsatisfied, making your own lets you customize it perfectly to your taste! With a glass case you like, some leather-look fabric, a hot glue gun, and whatever decorations you want, it’s easy to make.
Roll the fabric into a spiral and glue it with the hot glue gun; place the end of the roll on the bottom and secure two rolls, and you’ll have the sections where the rings can be inserted.
This way, the rings are held firmly in place, so it might be perfect if you’re asking a ring bearer boy or girl to carry them!
Something natural that uses dried flowers and baskets
Here’s an idea for a ring pillow using a basket and dried flowers.
Dried flowers have surged in popularity over the past few years, and you often see them used as displays in stylish shops.
Let’s make a natural-style ring pillow with a basket and dried flowers.
Simply place floral foam for dried arrangements inside the basket as a base, then insert your favorite pieces—it’s that easy.
Adjust the balance and placement to suit your taste as you go.
Adding ribbons can make it even cuter.
ribbon rose
A pure-white ring pillow made with satin and lace—it’s a classic, and it naturally goes perfectly with a wedding dress; a traditional choice.
Those satin ribbon roses that often come attached to such white ring pillows—you can actually make them by hand! You can buy them as ready-made parts, of course, but how about paying attention to the details and trying to make them yourself? Watching tutorial videos makes it look simple, but… let’s take our time and make each one carefully!
embroidery
Haven’t most of you tried embroidery at least once, perhaps in a home economics class? It may not be familiar unless you do it as a hobby, but how about embroidering your two names to make a ring pillow? Many people might feel unsure about doing it well, but if you go slowly and carefully, stitching one stitch at a time, you’ll be fine! And because of that care, it will hold special meaning and become a wonderful memory that lasts long after.
In conclusion
We’ve shared plenty of handmade ring pillow ideas.
Even though they’re “handmade,” many can now be created by cleverly combining store-bought items, so they’re all pretty easy to try, don’t you think? You might even find yourself saying, “There are so many I want to make, I can’t choose!”—which could be its own little dilemma (haha).
