Cushion: a simple drawing to help you picture short or long wording — not a seller’s product, font or layout. Real items vary, so always check the seller’s own preview or proof. What you type isn’t stored.

About this idea

Linen and cotton cushions embroidered with a surname and “Est.” date, a house name or grandchildren’s names make a warm housewarming, wedding or Mother’s Day gift. Some include a pad; some are cover only.

Who it suits

New homeowners, newly-weds, grandparents.

Ordering in time

Usually made to order; covers are often stitched after you order.

Before you order

  • Check whether a cushion pad is included.
  • Linen suits a 4th or 12th anniversary on some lists — ask the seller about the fabric.
  • Pick colours that suit their room.
