Fake Fur

As a BB (baby boomer) I happily remember when fake fur first (like the alliteration?) came on the scene.  Happy days! 
I am writing about fake fur because, in our version of the Airstream, there is a 4 inch gap between the end of the mattress and the wardrobe - or between the mattress and the end wall.  Sometimes a draft from where the bedframe doesn't quite meet the wall is a little chilly. We decided to slide the mattress toward the wardrobe, and fill in that gap with a couple king size pillows.

I promised to make cases for the pillows, but I wasn't fast enough.  Max took up the challenge, and went to Target and came home with lovely cream colored fake fur body pillow cases.  Wow!  They are that super-silky fake fur. 

And, when I cut them down to fit the king size pillows, there was enough left over to make a couple extra throw pillows.  More happy days!
