What DO You Get When You Combine a Meeple and a Pillow?

and pillows would look like. They are soft,

huggable and will definitely liven up any room

in your home and help with any chore you

assign them to. They are 15 inches tall, almost

16 inches wide and 6 inches thick. They come

many classic board game colors.

Pick out a Meepillow and assign it to a place in

your own home today!
