Kernel-Covered Cushions

Unfortunately, the Sweetcorn Pillow by Weng Jie is Not Edible

I may love my corn, but I don't I like it enough to want the Sweetcorn Pillow. That's probably why the images are clearly marketed to a younger crowd. Although, I know a few eccentric adults that would die to add this to their quirky home decor collection.

Designed by Weng Jie, the Sweetcorn Pillow has some really interesting features. Not only does it offer comfort, it also offers a fun plaything as well. The kernels actually detach and re-attach, thanks to Velcro.
