I had a fun idea for pillows and blankets, use QR codes that get scanned to give you information about an item. I thought that they looked interesting and would make a fun looking pillow and blanket.
I can make them say anything that I want. This one says 'love' which is why I picked red for it. My husband had hoped that once it was made that the code would still work but it does not. He is hoping that it might just be the colors picked for my first attempt.
My husband wants it to be his. He even says that he is taking it with him on his trip for work this coming week. Since the pillow turned out so good in my opinion I am going to make another one with a special message for my husband in it and print the QR code on a small tag to put on the pillow that will be able to be scanned by the app on his cell phone when he want to see what it says. I am going to try blue I think and I am sure my husband will try to scan it first to see if it works before trying any tags put on it.
I think these will make a great gift and making them say special messages will make each one fun and personal to the person getting one. I started with a pillow so that I could keep it small. I plan on making a blanket that is one giant code and even one that has a few different codes on it. If they turn out as good as the pillow they will definitely be cool looking. Let me know what you think about my first one. I will post picks of my next one soon. I am off to get started on it now.
