I’m digging these 20″ square pillows by Upper Playground.

“Be proactive (and comfortable) and take art from the gallery into your home. Upper Playground’s Fifty24SF pillow series brings pop culture and urban flavor into your space with designs by premier street culture artists, such as Sam Flores, Jeremy Fish and David Choe..”

Though cashmere and skulls aren’t normally in the same sentence, they do go together nicely as a pillow.

“A grinning ghoul invites friends to cuddle up to this 100% cashmere cushion. A great gift for dorm-dwellers. Filled with feather down. Made in Italy. Brown/orange. Measures 20″ x 20″.”

These pillows are pretty cute (if tools can be cute); the print’s a perfect accent for a bed or sofa in any modernist DIY-er’s home.

Tool cushion covers are made from 100 percent cotton fabric.
Removable cover, inner not included.
50cm x 50cm

These are quite the thing to catch the eye in a living or bedroom area.

“All pillows are limited editions of a 100 pieces per design.
Pillows can be used two-sided. We chose to “frame” our pillows with either 100% silk or unique upholstery fabric.”

Part art and part pillow, you’ll be investing in something special when purchasing this one-of-a-kind item.

“About the designer: Galya Rosenfeld’s work sits on the lines between fashion, design, craft, and art. Ruled by mathematic formulas as much as creativity, her designs emerge from the place where whimsy meets pragmatic thought. Her pieces are individually crafted, often without the use of thread, patterns or other tools found in traditional tailoring. Galya’s pieces have been accepted into the permanent collection of The Costume Institute at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.”
