Hunky Headrests

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Elizabeth Pemberley Creates Rugged Manly Men Pillows

— July 21, 2011 — Art & Design
Elizabeth Pemberley, the Portland-based artist behind the outdoors men pin-up pillows, has truly taken dreamy pillows to a whole new level. Snuggling with hunky manly men is now a no-brainer with these cartooned cushions. The best thing about these headrests is that each one comes with a back story and a character description. The collection includes the lovely Braydon, Bo, Derrek, Sven and Jack.

Each handsome dude has a different activity hobby that they excel in. For instance, Jack Lumberjohnson is an "axe wielding hottie [that] spends his free time rehabilitating injured and abandoned animals back to wild." And if you prefer a more sensitive guy, there is Sven Jorgenson, he "enjoys long walks on the beach and cuddling by the fire." Elizabeth Pemberley has created the sweetest way to cuddle up on a chilly night.
