Re: old pillows
I've read that pillows become bug infested over time, and that you should replace them every year. It's a shame to throw them out, but giving them away seems kind of yucky.

Tennis balls are great for comforters, too.
I just threw out our pillows and we started over new. The good people of OT convinced me that 30 year old pillows were bound to be disgusting even if they had been regularly washed.
Do you have a crafty friend? Maybe they know what to do with old pillows.
you're lucky

Re: old pillows
My crafty friend told me to shove my old pillows up my as.
Oh wait...my mistake. I asked a CUNTY friend.
i don't think I have any crafty friends. Well...one. But we all mock her.
HA! I actually rented her house when she moved to VA to be with her fiance. It was a hellish nightmare. We used to drink heavily and chase each other around with her "decor". She had "cuntry" taste -- so there were stuffed lambs and little dollies with broomhandles stuck up their asses and a pig and chicke border thing on the kitchen walls. Oh and a really really funny framed poster of a big fat cat falling over. Yeah. That was a RIOT.
Re: old pillows
you don't think they're kinda funny?
i couldn't live with the cat one though, nor puffy curtains. or any curtains really. or anything pink. Or any fake stuffed ducks or lambs or that kinda crap.

They are kinda funny. But...I dunno. Couldn't live with them.
At the house I was talking about, I took all her shit out of the bedroom. I put up this very cool Clint Eastwood sepia mezzotint framed poster. Him in a poncho with a hat and a thin cheroot in his mouth and the most wonderful squint happening from the smoke.
That was in the basement the first time my house flooded and I lost it. It was a special print run done to promote an event for some charity and the printer gave me a copy. Couldn't replace it.
