Behind the stache


If you've read my blog for 2.5 seconds, you'd know that I love mustaches. Honestly it kind of annoyed me at first when everyone jumped on the bandwagon because Jon and I have liked them waaaay before the fad (but the good news is it makes mustache stuff readily available). So lots of people have asked why we like them? Well I have Jonny to thank for that one. Ever since I've known him, he has had this obsession with mustaches. Okay I don't want it to sound creepy. We have this code look for an awesome stache and have always pointed them out. He would show me pictures of his uncles awesome mustaches in the 80s and point out crazy fu man chus. And so the love of staches started...


I was sent this adorable mustache pillow from EllaLou Designs after she saw our House Hunters episode and saw my love for the stache!


The fabric is a soft minky fabric that reminds me of baby blankets. I am obsessed! And so is Ernie...he was so interested in the smell and even licked it a few times to get a taste. 


The life of an old "child" who thinks everything is his...


I can see this cushy pillow being super cute in a nursery someday (nudge nudge Jonny Hart)



Friends, you MUST check out EllaLou Designs! Nothing is priced over $20 and I pretty much want to buy 99% of her pillows. Owls, monsters, and whales, these would make adorable baby gifts. Or who doesn't want an orange mustache pillow?!


I mean come on...cute attack...

It's Sooo Fluffy! said...

I like your explanation of your obsession AND I totally agree with being annoyed when everyone jumps in on the fad. I'm not a huge fan of mustaches because I didn't understand why they were all of a sudden so awesome. haha SUPER cute pillow though!

Mustache is one of those words that if you say it a few times..it starts to get all weird on you...

Also Ruthie, your photography has truly become amazing! I love these shots.

How cute is this? Extra cute. Now not so cute if you grew a mustache but i think that comes when we are like 89.
