#jellycat copycat

[palaeoplushies]

Self indulgent personal project... I love Jellycat Callie Cow and Carey Calf. I knew they came in Small and Medium and always dreamed of a Large, but they never made one, so I took matters into my own hands...

I've never tried to copy the pattern of an existing plush before, and I did this by eye rather than taking a Callie apart to get a true accurate pattern, but I'm pleased with how my Large Copy Cow came out! Don't worry I'm not planning on selling Copy Cows, this is a strictly personal project.

I recently have been experimenting with heat transfer vinyl and a heat press, I have this "puffy" vinyl which makes perfect cow nose texture!

This account is officially being re-branded!

As of 17 June 2024, this account is going through the process of being re-branded, rebooted and revamped. After a long hiatus, filled with the occasional reblog and text post, I have many plans to bring this blog back to life.

First of all, the name and theme will be changing, to a more gentle cottagecore vibe.

There will be regular posts of different jellycats like how the old blog operated, but focused more on personification of the jellycat and scenario, mood board and collage based posts, instead of the regular name and picture type favoured by some of my favourite blogs. I don't want to be a copycat, even if my special interests present in similar ways to others, through use of Tumblr.

There will be a weekly segment where you can send in asks with your jellycats, as a way to interact with the following of the blog and make some new friends along the way!

Another new weekly segment will be retired jellycat of the week, where I pick a random jellycat from any of the ones in let's say 2013 and post a moodboard and a little collage around that jellycat, as well as information about the jellycat from before their retirement, such as their blurb from their product page or some such.

I will still post regular jellycats, but with the new theme and format in mind. For example, I will post a cordy roy elephant, with a filter for effect, with a mood board and a who am I, telling you all about my personality I created for cordy roy elephant, as well as a mini collage of things I associate with cordy roy elephant.

As I start to get into the swing of making the who am I's and the moodboards and the collages, the posts may change in format. I have never made anything like this before. Previous experience is only with making a few basic collages with a phrase and some emojis, nothing so vast. I may struggle at first, primarily focussing on the other elements, such as the retired jellycats or reposting old jellycats with the new formats to help me get used to filling them out or creating them in general.

Content creation is a full time job and I am currently battling bone cancer full on, therefore my time is split between what I can gather up and what is left over after my "day" has ended. Spoon theory is a good analogy to what I'm dealing with. I'm already a chronically ill person, so I'm not unfamiliar to losing a spoon or two when trying to do something basic, but these are my special interests and they fulfill me as a person. I deserve to enjoy and be happy, it just takes some adapting.

I will not be posting everyday, every week, all the month, for all twelve months of the year. I will start out posting twice a week, weekly for the full month. I might transition over to four posts a week, however three may be the happy medium. I will take two weeks off at Christmas, I will take days off if I am with family. Life is busy and I don't intend to work around my creations, rather work my creations into my life, have them join and meld and wiggle around each other, like two people who can't get comfortable in a very small bed.

The revamping process will take time. As I said, I am fighting bone cancer, a very hard thing to maintain myself against day in day out. Your patience and understanding is appreciated as well as any help you can offer such as tips on how to do certain things, such as banner creation, moodboard websites, collage creators, good searches for good quality images or things like that.

I hope you have a good day, and I thank you for reading this post!

I tried the Frankford Gummy Hearts Box Valentine's Candy with Waffle, Pizza, and Avocado Plushies and the heart gummies were pretty good. These heart gummies were soft and tasted like light strawberry flavor. These gummies were not overly sweet but I still miss the Disney Princess Gummy Hearts that tasted like grape, watermelon, and strawberry with some sugary coating on them. You get only four gummy hearts in each box. I would eat these again.

Plush Review

All three plush friends are adorable and very soft. I'm keeping these and they all remind me of the JellyCat Inc food plushies in design. I wonder if Frankford company was inspired or just made copycat plushies.

Got at Kroger.
