A simple yet ingenious way to commemorate a loveable pet is to get a pet pillow made in its image.
Shannon Broder on Etsy creates custom cushions using silkscreen printing, transferring a perfect black and white image of any pet onto fabric. The cushion is even made into the shape of the image, creating a life-sized version of the critter. Anyone who wants to replicate their pets so they can decorate their home with cute animal faces would love these as gifts. They are also a great way to remember a pet that passed away, allowing the owner to cuddle with a lost friend once again.
Every pet pillow is made with non-toxic acrylic paint on muslin fabric.
