I just need to express that “Pillow Perfect” may be one of the best new brands I’ve discovered on Amazon. If I was Oprah- they would be on my ‘favorite things’ list for sure. This pillow totally meets my now very high expectations for these high class pillows.I can’t believe I didn’t know about this company when I literally lived just down the way from it for years. It makes me smile now to see my little Woodstock, GA (made in USA) pillows around my house and patio. No cheap and disappointing products vacuum sealed with funky smells from overseas here- just a super high quality product that will exceed your expectations.This is perhaps the most perfect Christmas pillow of all time.It’s got a fuzzy B securely on there in a crisp white (and my last name has a B so that’s so cool).The buffalo check is a good wide one in red and black. It’s not so overly “Christmas” that you would have to put it away as soon as the holiday is over. It gives off a nice wintery, rustic vibe for a good part of the year I think if you are embracing the rustic farmhouse trends.It’s not just a sham or a cover- the pillow comes with the insert and it’s a very stiff, firm, overstuffed insert for a good looking pillow. Sometimes when I just buy shams the inserts look loose and undersized inside the sham just loosely hanging around the edges- that is not the case here.I do hate that it says spot treat only. It has a zipper for the case to totally come completely off- but I don’t dare disobey the directions to machine wash, as I really love it.The edges are stitched in a thick matching black stitching.I think it would actually look great in any house around the holidays and really beats a cheap looking screen printed pillow case.It would make a great gift item for almost anyone.Overall I’d highly recommend it.
