the pillow factory custom pillows



before i begin:
yesterday i said something about costume pillows
heaven help me
i found that little typo tonight.
i meant
-ahem-
custom pillows.

(i don't even know what a costume pillow would look like)

(but i am going to stop blogging at 2 in the morning.)

on to custom pillows:

i love decorative pillows.

in fact
this afternoon i thought to myself
pillows are on my top ten things i love
followed by a good bra.

and so now i am off subject.

i love a decorative pillow
(again)
when gioia
from the pillow factory
sent this one to us
(photo above)
for the chief
i actually squealed.

it is white linen
with felt lettering
with orange stitching
and sturdy composition.

and oh boy
does it look cute in the nursery.

i know it says
"the chief's pillow"
but i like to think of it as mine.

gioia also has some pretty vintage pillows up for sale right now
or if you would like to order a custom pillow
you can experience her etsy shop here.

thanks gioia!


we are addicted to Target-brand juice

vedy, vedy cute! That chief, what a lucky duck!

i second morgan moore, the chief is a lucky boy! i feel we are very similar, a pretty pillow and a good bra (we like to call it a bolster holster, is that universal?!) make my top 10 any day!

I feel a little uncomfortable asking you this....but since you mentioned it first...can you recommend a good bra? Seriously. I'm always looking for a good one (and I'm pretty well endowed as well ...if you know what I mean). Thanks CJane!

I'm so disappointed! I wanted a costume pillow, because it sounds SO COOL.

My son was a pillow for Halloween this year. Cut out a head hole and arms holes from a pillow case and put a tag on in that said "Do not remove by penalty of law." You can see a picture of him on my blog if you are interested. He came up with the idea himself. kelberology101.blogspot.com

. . . and now I know what a costume pillow looks like. Got to love educational blogging opportunities. Thanks Kelly O.

Jennifer, I go to Nordstrom and let them fit me right. Then I try on every bra in the store until I have found one that works. It takes a good hour, but so worth it.

bra? what's a bra

JUST KIDDING!

I would squeal over that pillow too! SOOOOOOO cute!

very official!

The Chiefs pillow is so adorable.

I too love pillows. I was at IKEA, with my son, this morning and I came home with 6 (yes 6) new pillows. I love pillows.

bra? Wacoal is my favorite day-to-day wear bra.

I was laughing so hard when I saw that it was a typo!! I actually thought "I am SO staying tuned to see what a costume pillow is" when I read it. Maybe I'm a little disappointed...
