YouTube-themed pillows bring Web stars into home decor

Have you hugged a YouTuber today?

For fans, that may be an impossible task, but one pillow company is helping along the process with a new line of pillows inspired by YouTube stars. It's starting with Joey Graceffa.

Unfortunately (or fortunately) the pillows are not the Japanese dakimakura body pillows, or love pillows, emblazoned with a full-body image of Graceffa. Instead it's an adorable plush pillow in the shape of a wolf, a homage to Graceffa's dog. For his 5.1 million subscribers these aren't the first Graceffa-themed pillows fans can buy, but the first officially licensed and endorsed by the YouTuber.

The company also makes emoji-themed pillows, and a YouTube pillow in the shape of the all-important subscribe button.

“Since the early days of Throwboy, our brand was welcomed into the YouTube community,” said Throwboy Founder and CEO Roberto Hoyos in a press release. “We are thrilled to be teaming up with top creators on something only Throwboy can offer.”

Graceffa's $24.99 pillow is available for pre-order, with more YouTuber options like Meghan Camarena and Matthew Santoro coming soon.
