@dreams-in-inks and I are celebrating our 10 year anniversary today, and we did a little something silly Saturday night to begin the fun! She had never built a bear at Build-A-Bear Workshop. It was very fun. 🌈✨

I saw a lot of jackalope Build-a-Bear mods, so I wanted to make a Wolpertinger!

He's not perfect but I'm pretty please with it! Tracked the making of him here.

Pawlette (she/they/bun) and Froggie (he/they/it) !! both AAC users out a shopping trip! Pawlette loves vocal stimming so does Froggie the AAC be strapped ON >:) - Niko

It may not end up being another original Pawlette, it might be one of the variants

She would work as professional cheerleader, her interests would include aliens, and her scent would be pumpkin spice

She would be the sister of my first Pawlette, Vibri, named after Vib-Ribbon

Mojiko is the female side character in Mojib-Ribbon

Mojibri is the male main character in Mojib-Ribbon

Gabi is a bunny character in Animal Crossing

hihi!! cud you do a moodboard of a masc pawlette (the build a bear bunny) with themes of playing outside around the ages of 2-4 please and thank you^^/nf

Yes!

I couldn't find any photos of a pawlette in a masculine outfit or not dressed, so I found a masc bab outfit! But I hope you like it! I also thought a pacifier and teether was a good idea

Huntikmas Day 2- The team as build a bears

Sophie:

Sophie is Pawlette obviously, always the go to model BaB use to display their more sophisticated costumes and outfit designs. In terms of clothing I've gone for Sophie's more random style, she's got a pink shirt to get the colour in and a denim skirt which is kind of similar to the one she wears in show. And the converses she gets to keep but I suppose the laces should probably be undone.

Dante:

Based on a classic, back from the dead, everybody wants him... Dante is Pumpkin Kitty! Aside from that the colour scheme also goes very well with Dante's coat and hair and although the cat and pumpkin spice vibe might not quite be right, the other factors were too funny to ignore. Outfit wise there's no way BaB could ever manage the coat and it would be a crime to even try so instead we've gone for casual. Black V-neck, beige trousers and the boots kind of cover like half his wardrobe so it's a good fit.

Lok:

Playful Pup and Lok have the same kind of energy, friendly and a bit naive but equally a very sturdy and solid choice. Obviously Lok would need the Indiana Jones costume so I just had a bit of fun with the rest of his wardrobe. He's got a wholesome shirt but a bit quirky so he's not just got inspirational quotes stuck to his chest, the jeans like the show and the Ireland hoodie to remind him of home. He's also got the rainbow shoes because he is a rainbow himself and deserves the colour.

Zhalia:

Made for the bearcave but has somehow become a favourite with a younger audience, Zhalia is the devil bear. In this comparison obviously Zhalia was made to be an assassin/spy and has somehow ended up on a team predominantly populated by children. Keeping similar to the show, she's just got some jeans boots and a green tank top but when I imagine this all together it looks slightly punky and different which I think works.

Cherit:

Cherit is the timeless bear because who knows how old he is. Not much to say here other than the robes not only give him the white colour, but he also deserves to relax after thousands of years of human nonsense and being fired as a canonball by Eathon Lambert.

Den:

Ngl the main reason for the highland cow as Den is the crazy hair, it's uncanny. I just went a bit nuts with Den because it was really hard to pull an outfit together for him. Starting with the shorts… I can see him wearing them on a beach or something, I think he’d find them funny. Meanwhile the shirt was tricky because Den makes a lot of self confident jokes about being the best but he’s not got an ego, it’s just jokes. I don’t have time to analyse his self esteem issues here but I went for the mothman shirt because it’s the right level between his humour but not over the top. I think the mothman joke distracts from it being all about him. As for the shoes he’s just got some nice simple trainers to tie off this chaotic look.

Harrison:

Zombie frog because he’s been through the wars and he’s always looking rough. I’ve gone with the stranger things T-shirt because we all know how Harrison likes being in a club. I think it also adds to the edgy and antisocial but actually just misunderstood vibe he’s got going on. Black jeans to keep with the aesthetic and the same trainers as Den so they’re matchy matchy.

Honourable mentions!:

I considered the too hot to handle one for Den but going back to the ego thing I decided it was a bit too much. Meanwhile the take you out joke dates back in the Huntik fandom between Dante and Zhalia so it came close.

I'd love to see some pawlette plushies from build a bear, my favourite!! 🐰🩷

Yeah absolutely! There are tons of versions of Pawlette so I could definitely do multiple of these! I’m saving a few for certain times of your though ☺️

Decided that the build a bear model “pawlette” is my BaB Minnie’s drag project name, which led me immediately into pawlette as the Chappell Roan of BaB world- I heard u like magic, I got a wand and a rabbit !

My yoshi (gummy worm) has a animal crossing new horizons tush tag on it? And I wanted to ask, if you ever ran into any errors on your bab? Or seen any during your time working at a workshop?

ooh thats a really interesting one! i guess its pretty easy for tush tag errors to exist since they're such like a simple thing to add in to the bears, but i've actually never seen a tush tag error myself yet!!

we get a decent amount of errors in the workshop actually, i've been responsible for damaging quite a few bears simply cuz we r a manager at our location and so we're often the ones dumping them off, meaning ive seen a decent amount over the year+ we've worked there.

the majority of errors we get in bears are small holes along the seams, but those are easily fixable and we are allowed to fix any seam holes on bears as per build a bear rules, so those we dont have to damage (which is good). ive had a couple bears that have ripped on the fabric that we do have to damage, or bears where theres just like missing or like smudged tags. aside from that we dont actually get a lot of big problems, i think the most like notable thing we've had is the issue with pawlettes that happened like a month or two ago where the manufacturer messed up pawlettes all across u.s locations i believe, their faces were all messed up and we had to pull about 30 of them from the choose me wall and send them back rather than damage them normally. the worst of them had like, very uneven eyes, a flat and slanted nose, and uneven face plates (?). they were all very silly im honestly a little upset they didn't let employees buy any of them cuz they were SO silly /aff

aside from them, we had a chase once who's mouth felt wasn't properly trimmed, so instead of a straight line for his mouth he had like, a flap there? we lovingly called him scary chase before we finally had to damage him. we also once had a bear with a backwards foot that i think (iirc) a coworker bought. thats about it though for what i can remember! build a bear errors are so interesting to me cuz like. some of them are really simple or easy to understand, like tiny seam holes or like the face is a little off but not problematically so, or like the stitching is messed up so we have to hand sew them instead.

the majority of errors we actually get are on clothing, which isn't ever consequential enough to be noticable if you're not the one damaging them out, but its usually like, the pattern is smudged, or it gets peeled off in the packaging so its like half on there, or the pattern is folded, typically like printing issues like that. otherwise we get a lot on sound chips/heartbeats considering they have the potential for quite a lot of little tech issues.

hi 😊 the random question of the week is what's the last thing a friend or a loved one of yours has done that has brought you joy recently?

My two best friends and I all live in separate towns/cities so we get together as a trio 1 to 4 times a year, with us always having a Friendmas in January to March and then sometimes seeing each other for other stuff like pride or Halloween. The last time we were together was in July when we went to a pride parade. (Sometimes I see them separately. Last time I saw one friend was in September for ComiCon and the other friend had recently come to pick me up and run errands with me.)

This past weekend, one friend and I drove to go stay with the other friend. I got them both gift cards to Build-A-Bear and the friend we were staying with lives near one, so we all went to the mall and spent their birthday money.

I haven't introduced my followers to him yet, but meet Blinx!! All of my BABs are named after video games, so this one is named after Blinx the Time Sweeper. All my BABs also have scents (you can buy a scented piece of plastic to go inside when they're being stuffed) so Blinx smells like sugar cookies, because his fur reminds me of the Pillsbury Halloween cookies.

We all coincidentally made cats!! I made a Pumpkin Kitty, one friend made a Pastel Swirl Kitty, and the other friend made a Midnight Glow Kitty

So my friends brought me joy by coming with me to BABW!!
