It’s only October and your home overfloweth with made-in-preschool masterpieces. It’s time for some ruthless editing.

Sonoma-based custom decor shop RoomsbyYou.com turns your favorite pieces into functional keepsakes: generously sized linen or cotton sateen pillows featuring your child’s unique art.

Pick a charmer and scan it (we suggest ironing out crinkles first), then upload to the website’s 3-D visualizer to see how it looks in a range of sizes and rooms. Kiddo’s creation appears on one side of the pillow, with a color-matched back. You choose the size and fabric, and once the work of art arrives by mail, stuff it with a pillow insert. It’s the perfect holiday gift — especially for a softie.

Available at pillowsbyyou.com, $24-$44.
