Miscellany: pillow talk

Future Admin March 20, 2013

Do you prefer your pillows chopped or tugged? A nicely plumped cushion makes a room look all the more comfy and inviting, but which is your preferred method for perking up your pillows?

Cushions from Chocolate Creative

Let's look at the main contenders....

THE SHAKE - a method preferred by the likes of Buddy Holly, James Bond and the people of Harlem.

THE TUG - highly satisfying when applied to smaller pillows and cushions.

THE KARATE CHOP - love it or hate it? This technique divides opinion better than marmite.

THE DROP-'N'-HOP - one for poho enthusiasts and amateur trampoliners.

Which technique do you use to plump your cushions?

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
