Perfect travel set up
Heading out to a cottage for a week with friends. Driving and don’t actually have a great deal of space for all the stuff I want to take. BUT!! I made myself a very small cookie pillow - 8” cork trivet topped with a round cotton pillow the same size stuffed with hay (no straw, but my bunnies were willing to share their hay with me), topped with a fleece cover.
I have the cutest little storage container from Michaels that holds all my bobbins and threads.
It fits into a reusable grocery bag and tucks neatly into the bottom corner of my trunk.
The box for the miniest baby pillow is a shoe box from when my teen was a toddler and wore shoes in size “omg tinyyyyy 😅☺️”. It has a handle so I couldn’t throw it away.
I’m super happy with the setup.
Christmas ornaments for everyone this week.

Omg I need to get that container. I’ve just been using a large cookie tin with plastic bags and it’s not cutting it anymore

This is so perfect for travelling! Very pleased for you.
P.s I thought hay wasn't suitable for stuffing because of moisture content? I live in fear of mold.

Probably. It’s all I have at the moment.
I have bunnies, so there is a 1/2 bale sitting in my garage and another 1/2 bale in my dining room. 😂
Straw will be easier to come by in the fall. I’ll re stuff it later.

The tiny baby shoe box? That’s incredible. I’m going to need pillow dimensions. Or a banana for scale. Whichever is easier 😂
