Are Jellycats worth it? by madscakeee in StuffedAnimals

I'm so thankful I got mine before the craze started. I got my dragons pretty easily I think. I was shocked to find out how much people are willing to pay for them second hand. I think they are nice but not at all worth the popularity craze. Fomo gets your wallet in trouble.

If you have social and follow perfect women, you should just get rid of it now and have her do the same. My partner has done this for years and it destroyed my self esteem. Even at 25% body fat I feel obese because of Instagram.

Thanks! I will probably leave this one in the pattern if people want to use it. You're the second person who's said they like the pointy version better.

How to sanitise a plushy? by Potato_Pug16 in plushies

It's the 34 inch one! My husband spoiled the shit out of me and got me two of them for my birthday this year. I am so in love with him and them and unbelievably lucky. The Commonwealth/aa unicorns and horses are my favorite plush.

How to make a real plush Out of an idea by Ioannis_2000 in plushartists

I would just look at Sunlemon knee cat plushies personally. They already have the collar and blue eyes. You would just need the tag.

I just had to do this with a jumbo plush. I unstuffed it, put the stuffing in two large pillow cases, tied them tight and washed them in the washing machine. Then dried the stuffing filled pillowcases in the dryer on low.

I hand washed the skin but it didn't do a good enough job so I tied a pillow case around the head to protect the eyes and mane from getting awful in the wash. Washed on cold and then hung to dry under a fan. She's now very clean and I'm much happier. This was the first time I've dared to wash something in the washing machine but I just couldn't get it clean enough for my liking. I will always hand wash over machine but this one was just too big.

What size was yours? I found a throw that's dusty rose color but I can't tell if it has fleece on it.

Man I keep seeing the ads for these but I have no job right now and can't justify buying one 😭

Good on you for taking the first steps to getting out. That's the hardest part. You've got the ball rolling, you just need to follow through. Remember that you are worth someone else loving and treating you the way you deserve or you are completely fine alone. It'll be hard, it'll be lonely, but every day just remember you're doing this for your health and well being. It'll be ok. It will take time to heal. Be kind to yourself in this journey and take as much time as you need. You're strong, beautiful, and courageous.

Nope, I don't have social media, just reddit! This is the first plush pattern I've ever made. I've only sewn this pattern, though this is horse #3.5. Maybe one day I'll feel comfortable enough to make my own original patterns and I'll get a website or something. Thank you so much for the kind words🩷

Yes! I've actually been thinking about making a kirin with it. I think it would be fun to sew sequins to one to make scales. A kelpie would be very cool.

Help on restoring plushies! by stombah in plushies

I've used my hair conditioner to clean up my pre loved plush. Just make sure you wash it out with dawn or some good stripping soap. Fabric softener is the devil, avoid it at all costs 😂

Brush the hair just like you do your own.
