Hi, I'm located in PDX and I have a vintage unicorn plush that belonged to my late father. Would you be willing to restore it?
hi! unfortunately we don't restore plush publicly anymore, i'm sorry! i don't know anyone else who does it locally but there are a number of other shops in the country who you could mail it to. apologies for the inconvenience </3
Do you repair old teddy bears?
hi! we did for a short period of time but it ended up not being worth the high shipping costs back and forth + the rudeness of some of the customers we had. eventually we'd love to do it again but right now it's just not really feasible. thanks for asking though!!
hi everyone, we're back open for 2023! currently we have 3 new friends listed along with all of the unsold ones from the past year, and we're hoping to get a few more listed in the coming weeks. thanks!!

Hello, unfortunately we do not do custom plush restorations at this time and are choosing to focus only on reselling restored stuffed animals. We did custom restorations for a time but it was a struggle due to the many expenses, low profits, and people that were often uncooperative/unresponsive or just rude at times. We’d love to do them again in the future as there does seem to be a demand in the Portland area, but for now I do not know of anyone else who does plush restorations locally unfortunately. I will post links to some people who do them below if you’d be willing to mail it in.

hey everyone! I’m going to be closing my shop from april 11th to april 18th in solidarity with other etsy sellers to protest etsy’s latest seller fee price hike and certain new policies you can read about below! you know I’m always complaining about their fees and how I prefer to be paid outside of etsy whenever possible. I hope you’ll join me and not cross the picket line from april 11th to april 18th! you know where to find me if there’s anything I have listed that you want to buy or you have an idea for a commission! 🖖🏻
We are striking to protest Etsy's treatment of sellers. We will put our shops on vacation mode April 11-18. Those of us who can will strike

thanks so much for 20 orders on our store!! we appreciate the support <3 most of these and many more are still looking for homes at the link above :3
this week we had a sweet owl arrive at the hospital with a missing eye, and she was quite dirty too! we were happy to bring her in and give her a nice little refresh and some tlc
before any procedures can be done of course she needed to be washed! she was fairly well loved by her previous owners, so even her stuffing inside was pretty dirty, so it all went into the trash to keep her sanitary
she got to spend time with a friend from the forest after her bath while they had a soak in fabric softener as well! woodland creatures have to stick together you know!
rinsed and dried, then it was time to decide on what to do about her missing eye. just patching the hole was certainly an option, but we didnt have an exact match for her facial fur color in thread, so a replacement eye seemed to be the ideal choice. we had a few options, but i thought the smaller button eye was charming so we went ahead with the procedure...
and i think it turned out quite cute!
finally with her repairs complete, we stuffed her back up with brand new stuffing and gave her a good fluffing with a brush to be nice and soft for her new home
if you would like to adopt this sweet owl check out the listing here!
and you can also find more plushies that have been lovingly restored for a new home on the rest of our etsy!

treatment of a lovely little bear
as with all of our patients, this bear was rescued from a local thrift store to be restored and ready for a new loving home, but its quite the transformation so i thought i would share the process with you all!
when he first arrived at the hospital, he was in quite rough condition. he seemed to have had a run in with a dog, or possibly a young child with grabby hands! he had also lost his grip on his heart cushion, and had a small tear in his foot as well. quite the shock, but we assured this little bear he would be safe and sound at the end of his visit
before any surgery could take place, he needed to be cleaned. plushes tend to dry a lot faster without any stuffing, which decreases the chance of nasty molds growing inside of them while theyre moist, so we snipped him open and took out all of his old stuffing (dont worry, its painless!)
after a gentle hand wash and dry, hes already looking so much better! along with a restuff, he also got a brand new bag of pellets to give him a little weight. now to fix up his poor face...
using white thread i carefully pulled the fabric of his snout back together, until it was the proper shape again. the original plush had a safety nose, but considering how fragile a repair like this can be, even with the most precautions, we went ahead with embroidery instead. this is harder for little hands to yank on!
finally, after his nose was restored, we fixed up the small tear in his foot and secured his heart back into his paws, and he’s ready to go to his new home!
...and that home could be your home! if youre interested in adopting this sweet little bear into your family, check out his listing on our etsy here!
a few new friends have been listed and plenty of old ones are still looking for homes! check out our etsy store HERE
