We chop and dice, saute and bake — for days.
We clean like our lives depend on it.
We set the table with surgical precision.
When we finally sit down to the table, we breathe the world’s biggest sigh of relief.
It’s perfect! (Or perfectly imperfect, if you’re at my house!).
But there is one thing, as I look around the table, that always makes me giggle: My kids’ Spiderman pillowcases “adorning” our seder pillows.
While there’s something endearing about a seder with character pillowcases, if you want to bring a bit more elegance to your seder table, there is an alternative: Passover Seder Pillowcases.
Designed by expert stylist Esther O (you may remember her from her fantastic penny napkin ring holders tutorial), these Passover pillow covers are stunning!
With two unique styles to choose from, Passover pillowcases make the perfect gift for your seder host — or for yourself.
Pillowcases are a cotton/poly blend with embroidery and rhinestones, and fit standard-sized bed pillows.
Just toss them in the washing machine and they will look like new, year after year.
Ester O is running a special three-day sale just for KOAB readers. Normally $29.99, your choice of Passover Seder Pillowcases are $24.99 each with FREE shipping when you use the coupon code seder5off.
This sale is good thru Thursday, March 7th only!
I’m also excited that Esther has offered to give away two pillowcases to two lucky KOAB readers.

We use some embroidered cases and some plain cases…we could use some nice ones special for Pesach :).
With 3 kids, over the years we have collected enough school-project pillowcases and pillows for 10 guests! So we don’t need to use my son’s John Deere-themed pillowcases. But sometimes it would be nice to be a little fancier. 🙂

I have 2 decorated from school projects and the rest we just raid the closet and bring out whatever we find first.
We also use our plain pillowcases from our bedrooms. I grew up using all the ones my siblings made in school, but my kids are not old enough yet!
I painstakingly needlepointed a seder pillowfor a 6th grade school project. It somehow got misplaced at my parents’ house (probably eaten by the sock monster) so it’s been a regular bed pillow since then!

We use extra pillows which usually hang out on the couch or throw pillows. I put on simple matching cases (it’s easier when there are just two of us).

Whatever’s around
We use regular pillow cases every year.
Last year we made a huge tent in the living room and sat on beanbags and huge pillows like we were in a bedouin tent. Everyone loved it. This year is back to the table and I’d love to use these amazing pillowcases by Esther O.

Usually we realize as we are about to sit down for the Seder that we forgot pillows so we grab what every is close by – pillows from the couch and regular pillows cases.

My usual pillowcase is whatever I take off the bed. But this year will be different. I ordered a pillow case to take to Israel. I also liked Esther O’s face book page. I don’t have to clue how to use pinterest, but I clicked the button on the top of this page. If I have to do more than that I don’t know what it is. I need a pnterest tutorial. thanks for all your ideas and suggestions.
I use handmade pillowcases from school projects and then try to scrape some semi-decent ones from around the house. We try not to get the stained/bleached/faded ones and will settle with flowers or kiddy-room ones.
One day I hope to be able to afford nice ones like these. At least for Hubby.
I need a facebook and Pininterest tutorial!!
Anyone know how to do these things and teach me? I feel like I am from the Stone Age. At least I can email and text! I am actually not old enough to feel this way (haven’t reached my 40s yet) but still can’t figure it out!
Can you do a special article on how to do all these things so we can get the special deals that you often mention?
What I use for Passover Pillows: When we moved to Richmond, Va eons ago, Linda Steigman (yes, that Linda, now Rabbi Linda) made us a throw pillow of yellow gingham cross-stitched with Shalom Y’all in Ivrit. Well, 34 years have taken their toll, but its one of the pillows we use.
I inherited a bunch of beautiful hand embroidered linen linen towels from DH’s grandmother’s trousseau (She was married in 1906.) Wasn’t going to throw them out, but wasn’t going to use them in the kitchen either…. so I made an afikoimen bag from one that had her monogram on it, and used the others to make pillowcases for Pesach. That brings the older generation to our Passover table.
Addition to the above.

We use some fancy purchased pillowcases (with Seder sets) for the sons-in-law and some school project pillowcases – one tie dyed with the word Seder blocked out in the center and one cross stitched one with the entire Ma Nishtana stitched and one appliqued with different strips of felt. Teachers can get quite creative.
This reminds me of the pillow my father used to use! I think my son would love it!

I would love to win this beautiful Pesach pillow cover it would enhance our Pesach table.
Thanks. Eva
We use a combination of heirlooms (a few pillowcases that family members needlepointed), kid’s goofy handmade projects, and a beautiful pillowcase I found in Jerusalem. It’s a little eclectic, but that serves my family seder well!
We use our plain pillowcases:)
Nice look for the seder table. Happy Pesach.
I have one hand embroidered pillow case cover that we made in home-ec 40 years ago! Esther O’s case is gorgeous – I would love to add it to our seder table.
