DV survivor here. Wow is an understatement. Such an amazing cause but nothing can come close to the feeling of when you open this gift and really digest the reason why they do this.

eye pillows have left our hands and entered someone's hardest moment. A grief basket after a miscarriage. A night terror. A diagnosis. A day that just would not end.

donated to Laura's House, an Orange County resource center for survivors of domestic violence, because the women who need rest most are often the ones who have been given it least.
Makers
Every stillnus piece is made in partnership with artisans we have chosen carefully. Our India manufacturer holds sustainability and fair trade certifications. Our Southern California production partner is a family-owned independent sewing business. We have also built a small network of independent female sewers within our community.
We know the people who make what you hold.
Materials
Organic lavender. Organic flaxseed. Azo-free dyes on every hand-dyed piece. Cotton thread on anything that touches your face. Organic cotton fabrics where we can source them.
We make aligned choices at every step because the woman receiving this deserves to know that everything she is holding was chosen with care.
Founder
Denise Troy
Stillnus was founded by Denise Troy, a TV and film choreographer turned Orange County wellness founder, after a season of holding everyone else and needing to feel held herself. Every piece is meant to help someone feel safe, seen, and loved; a portion of every purchase supports domestic violence survivors through Laura's House.
