Record Cushions by Dark Dog Studio

Record

Dark Dog Studio is the work of designer/maker Hannah Galvin-Horne, producing both fabric and cushions, the latter including these Record Cushions.

The reasoning behind the name is pretty self-explanatory – each of the hnadmade, handprinted cushions features images of vintage vinyl 45s, offered in different sizes and with different colour options for the trim.

The cushions are printed on 100% cotton duck canvas and they come with a 100% duck feather cushion pad. The front of the cushion features the print, while the back of the cushion is dyed in a corresponding colour to the print. All are made to order, so expect a little wait, with prices around the £68 mark.

As you can see, these are original vintage 45s, presumably the ones no-one really wants (don't expect some rare soul for example), moulded into a 'perfect bookend shape' to support your book collection.

Available online, they retail for £20.
