Store bought VS handmade…Don’t get me wrong, yes it’s more wallet friendly and there are some great factory made plushies out there! I love them too! But there is something absolutely beautiful about receiving a plush from a handmade artist. The amazing work and time and love they put into every plush is simply something you can’t find in a factory made plush. Most hand plushies are one of a kind and unique to every piece. That artist is proud of the time, the work, their skill improvements, their challenges that they take when taking on every task. You’re not only paying for a plush, you’re paying for time, ,time they took away from everything else (family friends time to themselves) to create that, you’re paying for them seeking out the best materials for the amazing quality they want you to experience, you’re paying for their time developing new skills and the art they put into every piece. These small business owners take so much joy in creating them, to engage and make connections with you, to genuinely show their care in every detail of their item to the way they package them. They will remember you and go above and beyond for you where as a company won’t even notice the impact you make for their business. Yes, you can purchase something from a store for cheaper and I’m not saying you shouldn’t! But just consider these amazing pieces from all these incredible makers as a unique piece of them and their love put into every single one. And that ,my friends, is PRICELESS!
