Art for Your Couch

I just love the new trend of photographers and artists turning their work into gorgeous art pillows.  Now you can have art on your couch, not just hanging on the wall above it.  Keep reading to learn the secrets of how art pillows are made.



Michele Catino, the maker of this lovely blossom art pillow (above), is the owner of the online photography and art pillow business CatinoCreations, which can be found on Etsy.  She said, “I have my pillows manufactured by a professional lab.  There are many labs and shops online that will do custom art pillows for you. Alternately, there are many great shops on Etsy that have a wonderful photo pillow selection!”



Michele said she loves nature and wants to bring that nature inside with pillows that serve a functional, practical purpose.  “I consider my pillow artistry to be designer pillows because they are one-of-a-kind art.”



A graduate of SUNY Binghamton with a degree in graphic design and communications, Michele said she worked in the corporate world for far too long, and now feels fortunate to be working independently, pursuing her passion full-time.  You can see more of Michele's beautiful creations in her shop at  https://www.etsy.com/shop/CatinoCreations.

Now let's have a look at some other fantastic art pillows that are out there!
