The Shirllow DIY .

I know what you're thinking: what in the world? Look on the bright side, this post could have been titled The Pillirt. (smile) One of my husband's greatest gifts to me is his sense of humor. Just the other night, as we laid in bed way past our bedtime, I laughed until I cried at the things he told me. I told him before drifting off to sleep, "I love that you make me laugh". So, when I asked him to put together a little video tutorial for this post, it was no surprise to me that he came up with an ingeniously funny name to go along with it. Enter The Shirllow: a shirt made into a pillow. 

I made this little shirllow for my Graeme-bear. I envision little love notes, lost teeth, tooth fairy money, and so many other things filling it's pockets in the coming months and years. I see a few more shirllows in my future. You?

Graeme recently learned to recognize the written shorthand for I love you, which made this first shirllow love-note even more special for him. And, speaking of my husband, here's that beautiful video I hinted about on the Cranny + Me facebook  page earlier today: how to make a pillow from a button-down shirt. Happy shirllow making, wink!
