Custom Body Pillows are the Cat's Meow! World-Wide Give-Away!

To say I was completely thrilled is an understatement when I was contacted by Custom Body Pillows asking if I would like my own free personal keepsake pillow in exchange for an honest review on my site! I was ecstatic! I had seen them featured on one of my favorite blogs and was honored to be offered the same opportunity!




Custom Body Pillows are unique, and make an incredible gift for housewarmings, weddings, graduations, new babies, they are a thoughtful and unique gift that is pretty much suitable for nearly any event, or for any person that you can think of! . They aren't a gift that will be tossed into another room and forgotten, your custom designed pillow will become a cherished keepsake for years to come!

The process couldn't be easier, if I could do it, anyone can!

From the Custom Body Pillow website:
Simply upload your own high resolution photograph and we will transform it into a wonderful body pillow.
We do not recommend using photographs taken from a cell phone.

Images are digitally printed onto silky smooth satin. The image is permanent. It will never crack or fade and colors will never wash out.



For the back side of the pillow, you can choose from a variety of materials and colors.


The back side of the pillow is the black pillow above. It is soft and cushy!!!!!

I chose a photo of a painting that was done of Cody and Dakota because I wanted them both to be included on the pillow.
This is the photo I chose.
 It is a photo of a painting that was done for me by Ashley Beech Reid.


I was also one of the first people to use a cell phone photo (of course), instead of using a photo from a digital camera and trust me, there is no way that anyone could tell the difference when they see how gorgeous my pillow is! The process of choosing your photo and uploading it onto their website is as easy as 1-2-3!!



You decide upon the style and size pillow that you would like, the pillow that I received was a CUSHION pillow, also known as a Half-Size pillow. Don't let the name fool you, there is NOTHING small about this! It measures 21"x18" and sells for $69 (plus shipping and handling+tax if applicable. When it arrived I was SHOCKED by how large it was, I never expected it to be such an impressive size) The FULL size measures 42"x20" and sells for $119.00. Pillows are made 100% in the USA.  ORDER WILL BE SHIPPED IN 10-15 BUSINESS DAYS. EXPRESS SHIPPING AVAILABLE. To order your pillow click here.

I have done MANY product reviews on this blog and this is one of my FAVORITES BY FAR.  My pillow surpassed ALL of my expectations, the quality is superior, and the "magic" that was worked with the cell phone photo that I used, (remember, that is NOT recommended!)  was a miracle!




NOW WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!!!!
Our kind friend at Custom Body Pillows is offering a WORLD-WIDE GIVE-AWAY! ONE LUCKY READER LOCATED ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD will win a Half-size pillow (valued at $69), with the photo of their choice displayed on it! (IF WINNER IS AN INTERNATIONAL WINNER THEY MUST PAY SHIPPING)  EASY ENTRY ON THE RAFFLECOPTER BELOW WITH ONLY ONE MANDATORY REQUIREMENT! (But you CAN earn EXTRA ENTRIES!!)

GOOD LUCK!
a Rafflecopter giveaway







In full disclosure:we were not compensated for this review/give-away. We were sent a Half-size pillow in exchange for our honest review. In no way did the free pillow influence our positive review.

  7. The pillow looks fantastic -- is the pillow cover zippered, for easy washing? I would want that for the price they're charging.

    I *really* like your pretty green pillows, though, the other ones on your couch. :-)

    1. If you check their website their other pillows DO come with a cover that is washable. The size of this pillow and the option of having it customized make it totally worth the price. It is a LARGE pillow, no shoddy craftsmanship.......I am SURE the pillow can be cleaned.....info is on the website which I linked to in numerous areas of the post. Thanks about the other green pillows....they either came from Kohl's or TJ Maxx, don't remember but I think it was Kohl's.

  36. Those are amazing!!! TW said if I won and we got a pillow with me on it, I’d be too scared to jump on the bed/couch cos I’d think there was another cat on it. So not funny. TW hates me.

    ReplyDelete
  37. SOOOO gorgeous!!! The quality looks amazing!!! Guess I'd have to draw straws between Katie & Waffles! Maybe If I put Katie on the pillow it could serve as a decoy so that Katie can eat her breakfast in peace. ; )

    Wonderful review & giveaway!

  45. How cool! We love it! You know, Mumsy has a body pillow she uses to lie down with as it helps her arthritis and joints. Then she has a travel-sized pillow in pink camouflage she calls her companion pillow! She uses it for her back in chairs, or as a lap pillow, or - we think - jus to cuddle when we'd rather nap!

  47. I already emailed my husband the link to these pillows with a note ... I want. This is my subtle way of giving him hints for the next holiday. None coming up soon so I entered the contest and have my fingers crossed.

  49. OMC, I have never seen anything like this before. Stunningly beautiful. I love how you used a painting as it makes the image look as if it was hand-painted on the pillow. Heading over to check out the web-site. Thanks, Janet
