Beautiful Memory Cushion!!!!!!!

I had a memory cushion made for my husband from his late dad's shirt. It is so amazing, we love it!!!!!! Very quick turnaround from sending Sarah the shirt to receiving it back, brilliant communication between us too. I would totally recommend Sarah and encourage you to use her to make your special memory of a loved one.

Beautiful work out of old T-shirts

I had Sarah make a cushion out of a beloved T-shirt that I couldn't wear anymore. My Mom used to sew these cushions for me, so it's a comforting reminder of her. Sarah's work was amazing and I immediately sent off another shirt so she could work her magic again!

Keepsake shirt cushions

I have just received my cushions made from my dads shirts. He passed away last month. I had 5 made, 1 for each of my brothers, my mum and myself. Sarah did an amazing job. Got a tad emotional when I opened the box and see my dear old dads shirts. Thank you Sarah, il always have a part of my dad to cuddle now.

Memory cushions

I received my order promptly, it was very well packaged, Sarah has turned my late partners shirts into two beautiful memory cushions.. I am over the moon with them and it is a great comfort to see them as cushions.. rather than in a drawer. Thank you so much Sarah, I will
Be making another purchase for sure!

Beautiful Memory of My Wonderful Dad

I purchased a memory cushion from Sarah at 2greenmonkeys. I lost my Dad on the 9th December and a friend told me about memory cushions, I didnt even know such thing existed. But I looked into it and found 2greenmonkeys website through NOTH and I'm so glad I did because Sarah was so helpful and thoughtful and sent my Dad's shirts to her which was so easy to do and a lot cheaper than others I'd looked at. She sent it back to me when she'd finished and it literally made me cry it was perfect. So beautifully made and I would definitely recommend Sarah and 2greenmonkeys to anybody who is looking for a memory cushions. It seriously brings me great comfort. And would like to again say a huge thank you to Sarah for my beautiful memory of my Dad 😊

My Grandad

I am overjoyed with the cushion made from my wonderful Grandad's old cardigan. The moment I received it and held it, all my momeries of him came flooding back. Such a lovely idea to keep him close to me and so we'll made. The care and attention to detail in the making of it is greatly appreciated.
