Custom Pillows

Every custom pillow starts with a photo you send us. We cut it to the outline of your pet or person, print the same picture on both sides, and make it by hand in Chicago. A designer reviews your photo after you order, so pick a pillow below and upload the picture you love.

  • Checked by a Designer

    Before production, a US designer checks your photo by hand and makes any changes it needs. Then your pillow is handmade in Chicago.

Custom Pillows Cut to the Shape of Your Photo

  • We cut every custom pillow to the outline of what's in your picture, so you get a pillow shaped like your dog, your daughter, or the fish your dad still talks about. Both sides show the same picture.

    The shell is soft velvet polyester over plush polyester fiber fill, about 4 to 6 inches thick. It's machine washable and dryable. For a pet, start with the custom dog pillow; for a favorite face, the custom face pillow.

Pillow Sizes, From Lap Size to Life Size

  • 16" Small

    An accent pillow for the couch or a reading chair.

  • 20" Medium

    Our most popular size: big enough to hug, small enough to travel with.

  • 26" Large

    A statement piece for the bed or the living room.

  • 60" Extra Large

    Five feet of pillow: a life-size partner for the weeks they're away, or your dog, supersized.

How to Choose the Best Photo for Your Pillow

  • Keep It All in the Frame

    The pillow follows the edge of your subject, so leave room around ears, tails and hair. Anything cut off in the photo is cut off the pillow.

  • Good Light, Slightly Above

    Use a clear photo taken in good light from slightly above, with your pet or person looking at the camera.

  • Two or More? Get Close

    For several people or pets, use a photo where they're close together, and tell our design team who's who in your checkout notes.

Custom Pillow Questions

Can I get a custom pillow with my picture on it?

Yes. Pick a pillow on this page, or the custom photo pillow for any picture, and upload a photo from your phone.

How much does a custom pillow cost?

The price depends on size, and the 60" Extra Large has an oversized shipping charge. Each product page shows the current price for every size.

How is this different from a printed photo pillow?

A printed photo pillow puts your picture on a square or rectangle. Ours is cut to the outline of your subject. For a square, choose the custom throw pillow.

How soon will my pillow ship?

Most orders ship within 2 to 3 business days, or 4 to 6 during the holidays. The 60" Extra Large ships in 3 to 8 days. We ship to the US, Canada and the United Kingdom.

What if I'm not happy with my pillow?

We'll remake it for free until you're 100% happy. That's our satisfaction guarantee. Every pillow is made to order from your photo, so we can't take returns.
