Close your eyes and imagine lying on a soft, sandy beach while lilting waves lap along the shore. Feel the cares of the day slip away, replaced by a sense of tranquility and peace. Now, imagine you could take this bit of paradise and wrap it up into an armful of comfort, within arm’s reach whenever you needed it. This lovely cushion cover is meant to evoke the serenity of surf and sand, blue skies and caressing breezes. It is a soft, cuddly bundle of therapy – plus, the cover is designed to be easily removed in case it ever needs cleaning. Bliss!
