The Great Pillow Giveaway of 2012

Yes, this will go down as a historic event no doubt.  I am feeling generous and it isn't even wine time.  T minus 90 minutes or so...

Anyhoo, from time to time I will read a design blog and a great design book or product is given away.  I am not sure how they do that because I am usually too lazy to press a button.  And really, there are few things I need.

But there are two things I do want for my birthday.

1. Verdura Cuff.  Nuff said.

2.  A walk on part of any Law and Order franchise.  I LOVE Law and Order. 


I could play a character on either the law or the order side.  I could be the cop that finds the body "from the looks of it, he's been out in the park all night."  Or I could be the opposing lawyer "MOTION TO SUPPRESS!!!." The possibilities are endless.


But I digress.  This giveaway is about you, if you are up to the challenge and like the prize.


Nautical Scene Pillow
18 x 18 inches
down/feather insert
natural canvas back and invisible zipper
Hand embroidered by fair trade artisans in India



To be eligible to win, simply write a poem about above pillow.  It can be serious, funny, haiku, etc.  Just leave your poem in the comments.  I will pick the winner in a week from today. 

If you just want to buy the dang thing go here.

This contest is open to anyone in the continental United States.


Except for Tinkerbell Hersch because she is a known plagiarist.

xo,

Kate

  1. My dreamlike pillow,
    so whimsical and fun
    can't help but be whisked away
    in the endless ocean

  2. Ahoy, Matey. Board the ship.
    The boat is flooding,
    I see the first drip.

    Cannons are loaded,
    Take the gold.
    C’mon men,
    Pirates are supposed to be bold!

    We can’t cower now
    Rebels are coming on deck.
    Who am I kidding?
    Wait…is that Johnny Depp?

    We must escape now,
    No way we can live.
    We’re going to die.
    Yes, now you can cry.

    The ship is breaking,
    Tearing at the seam.

    Oh, man, yes, thank God.
    It was some silly dream.
    Oh, wait. What’s that I see?
    A pirate ship coming for me!

  3. For extra points, playing to your Law & Order affinity, here's this:


    Over there! Duck!
    That man’s gotta gun!

    Get ready, brace yourself,
    Now you can run.

    Don’t let him get away.
    It’s our biggest case yet.
    Look over there.
    We’ll work ‘til the sun sets.

    C’mon detective
    We’ll make him pay
    For all the awful crimes
    He’s done to this day.

    Oh man, he’s coming
    Right toward us
    Oh no, hope the border.
    Oh how I love Law & Order.
