Shredded organic latex is the same rubber as sold in 3" slabs, only it is shredded in tiny pieces and in a mix of firmnesses. It is ideal for pillows and can also be used for any stuffing project.
When the carding machine runs backward, instead of producing nice smooth batts, small wool balls are produced. These woolly bolas are light and airy. While wool batting would make an evenly smooth pillow, these bolas are able to be molded around a sleeper’s head to provide comfort where needed.
Millet hulls are the shells leftover from the grain after it is processed. These hulls are organic and grown in the US. They make a supportive, natural contour pillow, able to be reshaped each new night.
