We normally try to pick up our stuffed animals on clearance, but with the last two years containing less runs to stores, less income, and supply chain difficulties we haven’t gotten as many as we’d like. So, we decided before Dollar Tree prices went up we’d order a few different kinds from Dollar Tree to jump-start our stock. We weren't sure what to expect as we hadn’t been able to check these out in store and, while we’d been happy with Dollar Tree Stuffed animals in the past, it’d been a while and quality can change. I also thought I could then report back to all of you, so you could know if you wanted to order some for your boxes. We were quite pleased with the three we got, and I’ll share a little about each one below.
First up, the Customizable Plush Bears (http://shrsl.com/3c93j) These were a little smaller than we’d pictured, but while that doesn’t make it as much of a major “Wow” item it will fit into more boxes and is totally nice enough for a child’s main stuffed animal friend. These would also be great for these crochet loveies with stuffed animal “heads” http://www.simplyshoeboxes.com/2019/03/diy-crochet-granny-square-lovey-and.html
Second, the Fuzzy Plush Hedgehogs (http://shrsl.com/3c93l). These have been available for a while, and we were actually hesitant to buy them as they sounded too small, but once we got them we were quite pleased with their size for shoeboxes, and boy are they cute! Excited to pack them this year. Last I looked they weren’t listed as available, but they’ve had them off and on for years, so I’d keep checking if you’re interested as they should come back in stock I’d think!
Finally we got Fuzzy Friends Colorful Animal Plushies which turned out to be very cute and soft! And I like that there are four different animals for more variety! When I went to get a link, I couldn’t find them listed anymore, so must not be available at the moment, but here’s a link to their general stuffed animal area on the website: http://shrsl.com/3c93r there are other cute options, hopefully you can use the reviews above to find something that’ll work for your boxes, especially with Valentines and Easter animals coming in right now!
One thing we try to think about is would we give this to a child we knew personally, and yes, I think we would with all of these. To see more views of this, check out this video:
