Custom Printed Cushions

Hi everyone! This time I'm sharing a quick experience I had in getting a custom cushion printed. I was searching for a cushion to use in office and wanted something that would stand out.

Based on my previous experience with canvaschamp.in from which I got two canvas prints done (read about canvas print surprise), I decided to explore their site for other custom things. I saw that they had a custom cushion priced at Rs 399 only for a 12x12 size cushion. This includes the cushion as well as the custom printed cover.

I did not want a very personal photo to be printed and instead chose a fun Disney quote that I found online. I love Winnie The Pooh series and decided to get this image printed.

And here is the cushion which came in 5 days. It was packed tightly in a hard cardboard cylinder. The cover was folded separately.

The cover did have some wrinkles due to the folds but within a day they smoothed out after I put it over the cushion. The fabric is synthetic with a satin feel to the outer surface. You can print on the back as well for an extra charge but text is free. I got 'Winnie & Friends' written on the back just to give it that full Winnie The Pooh feel.

I love the final product and think this is a great gifting option. Would you gift a custom cushion, if yes what kind of print would you get done?

Quirky, fun and very Indian, that is how I would describe the products at IndiaCircus.com. Recently while going through the site I saw some new products that are available in several categories and thought it would be a good time to share some gifting ideas. The products from IndiaCircus.com are perfect if you are trying to find Christmas gifts or New Year Gifts for your friends.

So let me show you some of my picks for Christmas gifting from the India Circus. Prices mentioned are based on MRP but there are sales going on so you might find these at a lower price than mentioned.

Flat Ballerinas

I just fell in love with the new footwear available on their website. These are flat ballerinas in colorful patterns. I think these are perfect to liven up any dull boring non-sunny day and make it into a playful one. These flat ballerinas would look awesome with jeans.

Price: Rs 1299 and size starts at UK 5

Size 5 fits me snugly though I wear standard Indian footwear size of 4 or 36. So I suggest if you are buying these pick one size larger than your normal size.
I picked two pairs (my sister and cousins all have the same shoe size!) - one in pink and the other in purple. The purple one has Warli art on it!

Wallets for Women

The new wallets on IndiaCircus.com are perfect with their unique prints and they come with a metallic string so that you can carry these like a sling bag.

There are multiple options available and you can even find designs matching to the footwear above - would make a nice little hamper to gift out.

Price for the sling wallets Rs 1299

Mens wallets are also available for around Rs 699
