Etsy Alert: Charlie The Duck

When a friend of mine showed me her fancy new monogrammed pillows made from recycled felt with her kiddos initials I thought, “Wow, she must love her kids more than I do.”

Actually my first thought was how gauche would it be to copy her and get a set for my baby boy and little gal. Then I checked out Alexandra Ferguson’s Etsy shop and fell in love with another recycled felt number – Charlie The Duck. This appliqué pillow of a demure duck dude would look fantastic on my couch, or if I must, in my children’s shared bedroom. Not one to discriminate, there is also the lovely Belle the Feathered Friend in orange and fuchsia. – April Peveteaux
