This pillow looks soft, but she has had enough.
She spent years being leaned on, cried into, used as a quiet emotional service provider.
She absorbed all the weight — without ever getting a thank you,
without ever being asked if she had space for it.
Now she carries a sentence across her body like armor:
DON’T REST ON ME.
This is not a home accessory.
This is a manifesto disguised as upholstery.
A reminder that softness is not a duty.
Comfort is not an expectation.
Support must be shared — not demanded.
Place her on the couch where expectations pile up.
On the bed where the housewife becomes the mattress.
On the office chair where burnout pretends to be ambition.
🧵 Material: printed protest on plush softness
📌 Function: Decoration with boundaries
🔪 Message: Rest on your own strength
For the woman who refuses to carry what others don’t want to hold.
For the artist who won’t cushion egos for free.
For anyone who knows support has limits.
Soft doesn’t mean available.
Rest is mutual.
DON’T REST ON ME.
