Thanks again for all of the great tips on magazine storage/disposal yesterday. I needed that. It’s the 2-3 subscriptions plus the fact that The Mr works in marketing and brings magazines home almost every single day.
But, moving on.
Today I thought it’d be fun to do a round up of photo pillows. This trend takes actual photographic images, and transfers them onto pillows, many times adding a textured effect. It works particularly well with elements found in nature. But, can be just as fun with an unexpected image, like a camera.
1. feather 4 brown/orange, bynord / 2. protea pillow cover, clinton friedman / 3. sea view photo print cushion, skandivis / 4. richat structure terrain pillow cover, geography hand made / 5. digital print no. 5001, dorte agergaard / 6. vintage amica eyelux camera canvas printed pillow, in the seam / 7. clinton friedman collections
And, a DIY project via Better Homes and Gardens
I love the feathers pillow and also the one with the duck!!
Cool photo pillow DIY! I just purchased a dog photo pillow for a client .. they cracked up when I proposed it since I emailed them the photo of the pillow with the title ‘want to adopt a dog’ 🙂
Some of these (3 & 5) are awesome! This Skandivis site is going to hold my attention for the next hour, I can tell
That camera pillow is too cute!!
No 1 & 6 are my favorite. Maybe I can recreate the camera pillow with my old camera thanks to the DIY tutorial…
Do share if you try it out!
I haven’t seen too many of these photos but I love the old camera pillow 🙂 I should get it for my Mom since that’s her new ‘job’ haha.
What a beautiful DIY! just lovely..
big kiss!
Oooooo, how great! I am in love with that duck! Though I wonder how it would feel to wake up in the morning nose to beak with him?! I also love all the By Nord photographic bedding (bears, wolves etc) and I see H&M are even doing a little photographic bear pillow for the little ones. Fantastic post!
I love the duck pillow, so cute. I’m with Niki, I’ve always admired the Scandinavian pillows with animal photographs. x
These are so cute! I had my heart set on no. 4 but now that I look again, I love no. 1, 5 and 7!
The duck pillow is so fun! I love it. I don’t know how long I’ve been thinking to print out images and ironing them on fabrics, just haven’t got the perfect idea of what to do and have not bought that “paper” to print on. Thanks for the reminder.
Love love love all of those pillows. I’ve had really bad luck with iron-on transfers in the past. They tend to be stiff and can crinkle and crack if used too much. But for decoration that pillow is really special! The Photojournalist in me really digs that camera pillow 😉
I don’t know Erin, I think a picture of “Gary Oldman in turtleneck” might look pretty cool…
