Existential Scream Pillow Tutorial

Open up the pillow with the back zipper and slip in the text print out.

You should be able to see the text through the pillow, if you are using a darker fabric you may need a light table or window to make it easy to see the text through the fabric.  

Using the #2 pencil outline your text. This will let you move away from the light table or window later for working with the marker.

Once you have your outline, move to a table that is comfortable and where you can turn the pillow case if you need to while filling things in with the marker. Take your time, no rush, enjoy coloring things in. We only used black but you can get as creative as you want.

Let the ink dry fully before adding in a pillow form or stuffing it with fill material.

Now your pillow is ready for your next scream therapy session or as a funny talking point with your therapist. It is also a handy defensive device against spouses and siblings during pillow fights.
