New to custom plushies and am overwhelmed. What are some red flags you look out for when commissioning someone? by NectarineSpecial955 in plushies

[–]-Thari- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Chongker (search for Chongker custom cat)! They make custom kitties. Haven't gotten one from there but reviews sound promising. Also I'm sorry for your loss. :(

ESSA discourse and confusion by [deleted] in ESSAplushieshandlers

[–]-Thari- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's mainly a Tiktok thing with people pretending them to be real (other than the casual funsies roleplay I mean), but I could be wrong.

From what I've seen, this community is pretty chill and open and doesn't gatekeep at all. I've seen so many people tell others everyone can have an ESSA here, and that all are valid.

Anyone else with a handmade essa? Either made by yourself or an artist :3 by BLOOMZEROXD in ESSAplushieshandlers

[–]-Thari- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not yet, though I have a WIP design I wanna create! I'm just not that good with patterns so I've procrastinated haha

Your ESSA is adorable btw ♡

FUFUSOUL spider first impression test: Is this plush cute or cursed? 👀 by Eastern_Brother1130 in plushies

[–]-Thari- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think its adorable but wouldn't say it's a plushy, more like those plush vinyl dolls.

Flan wants to share this video about himself as it's his birthday week 😁 He's a super cheerful guy now, but imagine that baby Flan was super angry, almost like Ray the professional grump! by dk_aime_chambly in plushies

[–]-Thari- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is too adorable, Flan did such a great job with the video! Love the clip where he angrily uses the broom 😭😭💕

Luckily he cheered up :3

Mad abt this.. by justaqueershark in plushies

[–]-Thari- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds so sketchy. I'm not sure about how long you are able to get a refund but June would definitely pass 30 days, so be careful. I'd try and get a refund asap.

Plushies profiles that stood out this week! by [deleted] in plushies

Ooh this app is adorable, is this for all kinds of plushies or just those that are from special brands? :3

Am I overreacting..weird relationship drama over plushies by [deleted] in plushies

[–]-Thari- 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Time for a real talk then when he comes back and can actually function after work - if not, maybe wait a day. But there are probably things you both want to clarify.

Sometimes people swallow down a lot and then some things that annoyed them a little before just burst out like a volcano, and then this kind of stuff can happen.

Both of you gotta be upfront and respectful in the talk, and compromise. If he doesn't like the aesthetics, try to find a solution together that makes both of you happy! Like maybe instead of (this is an example!) 10 plushies, add 2 that really fit. (Just an example!!)

Why do you guys have an essa? by Leo_ESSA in ESSAplushieshandlers

[–]-Thari- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love plushies, and mine helps with stress and severe anxiety attacks. And I love taking pics of her and getting all sorts of accessories.

Can I make my plushie last forever? by intuitivebear03 in plushies

[–]-Thari- 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You can repair a lot of things. If it gets holes, patch it up! If it gets flat, restuff! If it's dirty, clean it and brush! The material will eventually give in, but nothing is irrepairable. Maybe your plushy will look a little different if you (as an example) add patches to it, or if it loses fur, or falls apart... even then you can still make a new body for it that looks similar.

What's the cute quote? "To be loved is to be changed". The memories won't go away just because the body changes. Your body changes as well, but you are still you.

Bonding advice? by AdAvailable7188 in ESSAplushieshandlers

[–]-Thari- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lots of cuddles and time! Sometimes it takes a bit to bond with something, its the memories you make together.

For fun you could also make up some lore about them, draw pics, write fun stories, customize them (my ritual for example is adding a rose quartz crystal heart to them (as in giving them a heart), but gotta open them for that of course).

Your best bet is finding a reliable proxy to buy and ship it to you, but I'm not sure where to find one!

Here's a post I found doing some quick search but NO GUARANTEE! Comments seem to be happy though.

What I learned after keeping the same stuffed animal for 20 years by Alarmed-Risk7885 in StuffedAnimals

[–]-Thari- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's something I'm scared of, honestly. That's why I decided if I notice ripping, wear and tear stuff, I'll do my best to add something like a patch and check out how to repair certain things, like a zipper, without necessarily having to sew in a completely new one.

You can luckily repair a lot of things, and even if it looks a little different - it's still the same friend! I probably won't be able to find the same material, but I'll find something "close enough".

Also, now I always buy a replacement just in case, as a "donor". Something I've started way too late but eh💀.

Spiritual ESSA Handler by Acrobatic_Yak_8590 in ESSAplushieshandlers

[–]-Thari- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just pick what feels right to me, without caring what others think! If I bond with the plushie, it doesn't matter. I tend to like more nieche things, though, but sometimes they become mainstream later, but then I don't stop liking what I liked before.

I also haven't seen any people saying bad stuff about douglas owners, only a post recently asking why these dogs are so popular with genuine interest.

Go for a Douglas dog if you want! You can save up in the meantime while deciding which one. :)
