Cushion Rings

Pilo Pilo

Canadian designers, Sae Shigeto & Ming Lo have come up with the perfect solution for boring days at work and at school. Their mini pillow ring has a small cushion made with stylish fabric. So when you rest your cheek against your fist, the cushion will be much more comfortable than your bony knuckles.

A great daydreaming aid but make sure you don't nod off! Or if you are doing some discrete nodding off, the cushion ring will at least keep you vaguely upright. It can't do a thing about your eyelids though.
