super easy, portable pillow perfect for travelers, campers, and explorers
Backpack camping deep into the woods calls for packing light. I whipped up two mini pillows from one adult medium sized t-shirt to be hooked to backpacks with a carabiner. You don't have to be a camper to appreciate a neck pillow in the car or airplane. So make a few of your own, hook up to your bag, and get exploring already!
