@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. 🌈✨

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

Which bunny Build a Bear is Pedroia?

He’s a Pawlette. I bought him used so idk anything more specific. I originally only bought him for the outfit he came with, but I fell in love almost immediately.

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

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.

hey mar ^_^ Thinking of the ask u sent me last night what are some plush brands that u like?

Oh ! I have some lovely brands for you, here are my five favourites !

1. Jellycat

Jellycat is an awesome brand, their plushies are super soft and cute. I own four, and they're all awesome quality. Another thing that I find great is that they have their Safety + Sustainability Policy and their Modern Slavery Statement at the bottom of their website, perfectly accessible.

A special thing that makes me love this brand even more is that they have a Retired Jellycats page ! It has all of the Jellycat items that are no longer available, sorted by year. No other brand that I know of has anything like this

2. FAO Schwarz

FAO Schwarz is an amazing brand that sells much more than just their own plushies, including stuff by other brands and other types of toys.

A detail that makes this brand so so dear to me is that all of their own stuffed toys come with a little red envelope that contains an adoption certificate ! It really helps you bond with the plush, in my opinion at least.

3. Build-A-Bear

Build-A-Bear is quite a popular brand so you probably know all about it but it is still one of my favourites.

I absolutely adore how you can customise your new friend so much, with scents, heartbeats, voice boxes, clothes, and many other accessories to choose from you're sure to find the perfect plush for you ! (Note: BABWs also have a "pay-your-age" thing on birthdays where however old you are is how much you pay ! Ex. 12 year olds pay 12$)

4. Pillow Pets

Pillow Pets are also an immensely popular and widely known brand, and for good reason too ! Their plush-pillow combos are positively adorable and sure to become a permanent fixture of your bed setup.

Obviously the fact that they combine pillows and stuffed animals makes them super unique, but their collection of different animals and characters is amazing. My personal favourites are the bee, the ladybug, and all of the scented animals !

5. Manhattan Toy Company

The Manhattan Toy Company is really just your typical stuffed animal and kids' toy brand but I have to include them because I love mine to bits, they are so so cute and just overall perfect.

Extra: My Plushies

Here are my stuffed friends from all of the brands listed above !

First picture is my Jellycat Medium Dexter Dragon, currently unnamed with a collar I made myself.

Second image is my FAO Schwarz Great White Shark with his adoption papers, his name is Toby.

Third is my BAB Pawlette, wearing overalls and an "It's a Boy" t-shirt. She is in her pink carrier which makes it so much easier to bring her places especially when I have to use my hands. Her name is Honey.

Fourth is my Pillow Pet Bee, named Clown.

And last but not least is my Manhattan Toy Company Pig, Sam-Sam. I also call him Sam or Sammy.
