Testimonial Stories

Name: Elanna
Ages: 9
What’s in your Pillowink? Mom bought one of these for me and one for my brother, Itch (that's my nickname for him). He's 7. We've been having such fun finding gifts from her and our dad.
What do you have to say about it? Itch had a big baseball game last weekend and I decided to leave him a note in his PW pocket to wish him a great game and good hitting. I had not done this before. He hit a triple! He had never done THAT before! I took all the credit ... heehee!

Name: Katie + Mike
Ages: 28 + 31
What’s in your Pillowink? The sweetest note from Mike about our new way of communicating. He's crazy in love with it!
What do you have to say about it? We're both artists, which we never thought would become a problem, but it did. We ended up in couples therapy and although we loved our therapist, it wasn't working very well. A friend suggested Pillowinks so I took a look and thought, well, could be cool. It's been just what we needed! No talk to start, just sweet notes, lots of hugs and hand holding (my favorite). Thank you, Pillowinks!

P.S. Our friend Marc took the photo we sent. I did the drawings, Marc put them into the photo. Thank you, Marc! (check out pillo.winks on FB)

What’s in your Pillowink? Nothing yet.
What do you have to say about it? I had ordered PWs for my brother and his family as Christmas gifts. I needed a new pillowcase and remembered the organic feature, plus loved the secret pocket idea. I ordered one and absolutely adore it! Super soft, I can actually breathe without waking up congested and sneezing, so therefore I sleep better! Who wouldn't want to breathe & sleep better? Two main essentials to life! Thanks so much PW's for helping me out!!! Love my PW's!!

What do you have to say about it? Our cat MiMi sleeps with everyone but me and it makes me sad. My mom bought a Pillowinks and left some treats in the pocket.
