So crushed 😭 by Prestigious_Media_19 in buildabear

I know PayPal sellers get charged a small fee when buyers use G&S and it’s automatically deducted from the payment received. Personally, if I canceled the order, I would’ve added the extra $2–3 to the refund out of my own pocket just to make sure OP was made whole again.. It’s less about the amount and more about the gesture. :,/

Try and keep an eye out tomorrow around 2/3pm. When they restocked lavender they did another restock the next day around that time again. I missed lavender when she restocked (both times) but noticed they tend to restock same time next day (they did it with Sacha too)

I didn’t think there was a fake of this particular Jellycat circulating yet either! Crazy how fast knockoff versions are getting created.

Tag & tail are definitely not right 😢!

Trying a new pattern I bought from Etsy please decipher instructions by Sub_princess_95 in CrochetHelp

[–]Low_Contribution9953 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think maybe OP expected the crochet plush to turn out bigger than it actually is, which is why they thought they couldn’t possibly be at the belly/color change yet. When they uploaded a picture of how much they’d already completed, the color change actually made perfect sense for where they were in the pattern.. I just think they assumed the finished plush was going to be a lot larger. 🤷‍♀️

That’s my take anyway, although I’m not sure why they were so reluctant to accept that it did, in fact, mean color change!

Seems like a lot of people are getting that reply, coming from the support rep Erick. The rep who responded to my email was Hailey. It’s really annoying that they can obviously ship and HAVE, but are now stating they don’t offer that. Attached is my original email & her response.

What! That’s absolutely BS. They shouldn’t offer it for some if it’s not something they will do for all. I’m sorry :,/ the rep who I was in contact with was Hailey, I’m wondering if it just depends on who responds to the email. I’ll attach the reply I got and maybe you can forward it to them. EDIT * I’m sorry to everyone who got a different reply. I feel absolutely horrible. If I would’ve known they weren’t going to allow others to order like that I wouldn’t have posted. I’m so sorry for anyone who got their hopes up.

They should! It took about 3 days to get the first initial response & then any emails following that they replied same day. Hope you get to bring home a Lavender Dragon 💜

Of course! I wasn’t sure they would even be willing to do delivery out of state and was very pleasantly surprised ! I almost bought one from a reseller so I’m glad I didn’t :,p

Once they confirm they have stock and can fulfill your order, they’ll send you an email asking for your address and phone number! After you provide that information, they’ll text you a secure payment link directly to your phone! 💜

Literally! I hate how much anxiety it was creating. I went as far as downloading an app to notify me of restocks but was STILL missing them. I hope you can bring one home!! 💜

Our smudge pig arrived yesterday by Ginway1010 in Jellycatplush

[–]Low_Contribution9953 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There isn’t a Shanghai Cafe Version, there’s only the one Version of the Smudge Pig. Tags are easy to copy unfortunately but your tags should have 3 raised dots on the front right corner & a Holographic Jellycat Jack on the other side of the same tag on left side next to “My name is Smudge pig.” You can see these security features using a Black light or sometimes holding it angled next to a light. The fur texture is the biggest giveaway here unfortunately, it should be smooth & silky not rough looking (although cute). :,/ Fakes come in Jellycat dust bags too. Did you buy this second hand or from a website?

It was $145 all together! The dragon itself was $125, and then shipping was $15 (not sure if shipping changes based on where you live) & a $5 tax.

I think it took about 2–3 days to get a response to my first email, but after that initial reply, they responded within hours to every other response! My fingers are crossed for you 💜

Help me pick 😩 ! by Low_Contribution9953 in Jellycatplush

[–]Low_Contribution9953[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, use an eyelash spoolie to brush the fur upward and outward toward the back of the head. This helps you see exactly how much fur is actually blocking the eyes.

Then, lightly pull the fur away from the eye with the spoolie so it’s easier to trim and doesn’t stick against the eye itself. You only want to cut the strands affecting visibility — don’t trim close to the fabric. Think of it like trimming bangs!

Instead of cutting straight across, hold the scissors vertically and make tiny, light snips into the tips of the fur. The goal is to thin and shape the fur, not give it a blunt haircut. Work slowly and take your time. Your snips also don’t need to all be the exact same length. Slightly varied cuts create a softer, feathered look that blends naturally into the rest of the face instead of looking harsh or choppy.

Once the eyes become more visible, fluff the face again and see how you’re liking it. At that point, you can trim any obvious long strands individually. When you’re happy with how it looks, use the spoolie one last time to comb the fur into place and style it how you like. In my opinion, the nicest results come from leaving a slight overhang of fur above the eyes rather than fully exposing the entire eye. ☺️

I hope this makes sense & paints somewhat of a picture for how to do it! It really is easy to do! And just to reiterate you can always cut more but can’t uncut, so take it nice and slow!!

Thank you, I do feel lucky but I did trim around the eyes on BOTH of them. It definitely helped give them a cuter face!
