1. URSKYTOUS Nicolas Cage Sequin Pillow Case

What makes it even better is the fact the Nicolas Cage face is made from sequins, meaning all you have to do is run your fingers across it to hide the face and display the ruby red cover underneath. Simply turn the sequins back over to reveal Cage’s handsome face. The backside of the pillow sports a suede material along with a hidden zipper closure.
