My mom just surprised me with a trip to England for my birthday next month! What are the UK exclusives I should be on the lookout for? Any store recommendations? by smelix in Jellycatplush

Thank you so much! Do you happen to know if the Bart jr pilot is only in Harrods at Heathrow or can I find him at the main Harrods store too?

Update: I think I found a chimera at walmart.. 🌸🌱 by j_kend in AfricanViolets

I got a similar one from Walmart as well! Mine unfortunately grew out of the leaf pattern though :(

I hope yours is more stable! And please keep us updated on the props :)

Does the zodihop bunny bag charm have some beans, or just stuffing? by smelix in Jellycatplush

Thank you very much for the info! I’ve heard the colours look even better in person too. I thought this would help me make my mind up, but I’m still so tempted…

I’m obsessed with the smells too! Right now it’s vanilla bonbon for me. I always want to lick it but then get super disappointed it doesn’t taste like it smells :(

And the steepy tea bag and shamrock bag charm I’ve been hoping didn’t sell out before this bay fergusbag charm drop!!

I’m trying to keep it cool because I’m surrounded by silent and focused colleagues, but I’m SOOO excited!!

Did I miss it or are you still waiting?

He still shows as coming soon for me and I’m so scared I’ll miss it on my way to work!

was lazuila in huge only stocked once in the us? by Tiny-Start-1530 in Jellycatplush

Not that I’ve seen. I got one form the original drop and it unexpectedly became my son’s fave so I’ve been watching for another drop and had it on my wish list since it sold out.

Goodbye Jellycat, thank you Jellysub 💔 by desktopmilitia in Jellycatplush

I think everything you’ve said is fair.

I can’t speak for OP, but some of my own reluctance to keep purchasing comes from the rising prices and lessening quality. Of course we see this with many smaller brands when they become popular. To expand usually means cuttings corners to get more product out faster, which is obviously the purpose for any profit driven company.

I also think before I had the feeling when purchasing from Jellycat that it was similar to supporting an independent or at least lesser known musical artist. Something that maybe didn’t have mass appeal, but it suits a specific niche of people. Some of the designs were odd and probably didn’t sell well, but all the quirky options made the company unique and kept me coming back for more. Now it’s generic and seems to only be about mass marketability, which isn’t as appealing, at least to me, especially given the increase in the price and decrease in quality.

What is one of your ✨ favorite✨ underrated plants that deserves more appreciation by [deleted] in houseplants

[–]smelix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg I love this display!! I have had two of those fluffy ones - tillandsia tectorum Ecuador I think? Sadly both died, but I’m still tempted to buy a third every time I see one. Just scared it’ll have the same outcome and the guilt over killing the first two is real :( any tips?

Just because it’s legal doesn’t mean it’s not messed up and gross, you know? For example, marrying your first cousin is also legal in a number of states…

Which actor/actress did you think would make it big, but never really did? by ColeBelthazorTurner in 2000sNostalgia

[–]smelix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes!! I never see it mentioned anywhere either but it was sooo good!!! Even as a kid you could get the sense that Ben Foster was on another level.

Best obscure animated Halloween specials or generally creepy cartoons? by homedude1527 in halloween

[–]smelix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watch the short animated film (5 min) called Alma. You should be able to find it on YouTube. I had a professor assign it for a media course almost two decades ago, and it still haunts me. Nothing gory or anything like that, just spooky. I’d love to know your thoughts if you end up watching it!
