Etsy Scavenger: Hugs and Kisses Freezer Bag

Like Sam, the designer behind the Etsy shop Inklore, we've always resorted to assorted bags of frozen produce to ease bumps and bruises. Each time we find ourselves wrapping (badly) a dish towel aroun...

It's log, it's log, it's big, it's heavy, it's wood. It's log, it's log, it's better than bad, it's good! Er, pardon our lapse into our own Ren and Stimpy juvenalia, but when we saw this wool pillow...
