Okay, I know pillows aren't exactly the most original idea in the world, but I love this one because it's unique.
Mom is into making pillows and transferring pictures onto them, and when I first saw one I oohed and ahhhed enough to prompt her to ask "Would you like me to make you one?" (If it had been Dad, I would have batted my eyes).
