Jellycat/Stuffie Thread?
ok, I know I already have the stuffed animal improv over in Inkwell... but here's another stuffie thread! Bc Blackfooted Bobcat has literally gotten me and my mom obsessed with Jellycats (wHy aRe tHey sO eXpEnSiVe) and it'd be cool to see who else is too/if anyone has any (I got 3 in the span of 2 months! Yay! Still can't quite believe it! And they each have stories behind them if you want to hear :) )...
bc I still feel bad for not spending as much time with all my way too many stuffies than usual (I used to sleep with a different one each night so none of them felt left out... oh, those happy (g)olden days of yorn!)...
and literally just bc. Who knows if anyone's even gonna reply to this thread. :) So. Stories about your stuffies, introducing your stuffies, pictures of stuffies in funny poses, fun facts, really anything stuffed animal/Jellycat related (I mean seriously stop looking at me like that Sea Turtle Love that's your name ok and it's final no I am not calling you "Jolene" even though that's what it says on your name tag your name I declare is Sea Turtle Love and end of conversation!)!

some pictures I took at a park! This is Chamomile Honeycomb. He really likes flowers and bugs. He also likes baking and often brings baked goods to Oolong's house for tea. (Oolong is a Smudge Elephant, idk if i have any good pictures of zer...) Anyway, from my stuffie document:
"Chamomile lives in a cottage in the woods surrounded by flowers. Thyme, Roman chamomile, and clover blanket the ground, mixed with flowering moss and dandelions and strawberries. Wisteria and clematis climb the walls, watching over the roses by the door that are always growing closer to each other and can almost be heard gossiping if the wind is still.
"With all the flowers, Chamomile is a friend of the local bee population. He’s always trying to add more flowers that will attract different species of local bees. Honeybees gift him several jars of honey every year, and other kinds gift him flowers. (Once he was even given a cherry tree.)
"Chamomile can plant all the flowers he want, but the one thing he can’t do is kill them. Even during winter, flowers break through the snow and flourish encrusted in ice. The bees have suggested that Chamomile has magic, but he figures the flowers are just his friends."

YAY IT FINALLY WORKED -! Upload hasn't been working for the file i wanted to post...
anyway this is Trinket Cookie-Crumbs! Fae's just exploring and having fun :D Probably searching for something shiny or interesting or useful. Fae's a collector of random stuff. I don't know if fae really uses anything, fae just likes it. You can't really see it in this picture i don't think, but fae has a necklace that's technically a bracelet. It has an orca charm on it. Fae mostly uses fae/faer or fae/fern by the way (probably okay with they/them or she/her too) and Chamomile is mostly he/him but maybe something else too idk. I think fae was my second Jellycat???? if i'm correct
(April 23, 2024 - 4:11 pm)
this isn't the exact same picture as the one i was trying to do but it's pretty close.
Chamomile likes baking as I said, but he deeply hates having to clean up after it. maybe he gets the bees to help... i actually like that idea and now i want bees as friends. He's kind of both hyper and like scatter-brained and always thinking of new things and half-starting them and also kind of tired and can't think well... i basically just described myself heh
(April 23, 2024 - 4:19 pm)
Yay this one worked too now!
okay so it's not as nice of a picture as far as photography goes but since I mentioned Oolong here ze is! Ze is very sleepy so ze uses ze/zer/zerself (like zzz which is like sleep. i find this far funnier than i should). Ze likes tea and is kind of like a grandparent figure to everyone (although ze isn't anywhere near as old as Amethyst, the cat stuffie I used to bring everywhere. I should post a picture of her... she's so beat up and has bald patches heh. She's very sweet but I don't do anything with her much anymore because i'm scared she might fall apart if i did :( but i've been meaning to make her a throne or something). Ze also has a large garden with a lot of berries, and zer house is like a cottage but mansion-size, and is full of fancy teapots and other things that Oolong likes and has a lot of wood accents and metal scrolls. Oolong is also pretty good with herbal teas though, and will make things like tea to help with sleep or that sort of thing for the other stuffies.
also i'm very open to questions about them!!
(April 23, 2024 - 4:35 pm)
Oh.oh my heart sweet huntokar there just adorable
(April 23, 2024 - 6:50 pm)
Ahhhh I love them (@Blackfooted Bobcat)!!!!!!!!! Might respond more later but anyways I was inspired by your stuffies and Gloomy's AE Fantasy AU thread and decided to do it for my stuffies because they're normally just regular stuffies with regular lives but ~fantasyland~ so
Meryl "Mer" Koban is a small white cat who lives on the streets of Mer (a prosperous coastal city in Kyngdom). Because this is my imagination, she defies the rules of Kyngdom and is just a normal cat).
Gian Furlough Acorn Harlowe brews spells and potions in the treetops of the Harlowe (Hollow?) Forest.
hua (for some reason their fantasy-self's name isn't capitalized, my only explanation is they are a dragon and so are beyond explanation) lives in a cotton-candy cloud kingdom and often goes for flies through the pink skies there. It is rumored that they are the one who brings dawn to the sky.
Isabella "Izzy" Fur is an intrepid adventurer exploring the "wild" forests of the Bayers; she is somehow always back in time for dinner ;)
Snowbell "Snow" is a powerful witch widely known in the lands of Avern. She is the caretaker of Izzy, and always has a pot of stew ready for when Izzy gets back from her adventures exploring the ~dark~ and ~mysterious~ backyard woods. Note: Snow's name is usually just "Snow"; her Fantasy self is "Snowbell". I also added in some last names for my stuffies' fantasy selves.
Crash Penguin is an aviator!! :DDD finally, his skills are put to good use. She is not as famous as they think he is, but that doesn't stop her from livin' it up!
Aurora is the graceful princess of the kingdom of Northern Lights. She longs to see the world beyond the plains of ice.
Pixie Dust is a fashionable stay-at-home mom who runs a clothing line for the best and most elite :0
Boo Dust is a mischievous little puppy dog who disobeys his mother and goes off on wild and daring adventures!
Poppy Dust is the eye-rolling sister of Boo, and yet she can't resist a good adventure either. Rumors have it the siblings've sailed the high seas together, stealing treasure and battling pirates. Pixie shakes her head and sighs affectionately.
Libby is the witch of the Arctic regions; a caring figure who is looked up to by everyone. She spends her time sipping hot cocoa by the fire and watching over everyone's kids. Everyone loves Libby <3 She is not magical but she is magic.
Carina Longnecked is said to be the creator of the world. She sees all and knows all. She lives in a cave and is really quite lonely, having only occasional visits from her daughter to keep her company. This self-enforced solitude is the only thing stopping the end of the world. :(
Olivia Longneck (no "-ed" at the end) is a happy, artistic kiddo who spends her time chasing butterflies and causing mischief. She loves her mother, but doesn't yet understand the predicament Carina's in.
Anabelle is a Creator, meaning she can bring things to life just by sculpting them and breathing on them. She's one of the most talented of her skill, though she only does it for enjoyment, and always makes sure to be careful when she's doing it. All her creations have turned out to be lovely creatures who are always happy to lend a helping hand in her village of Verns.
Isabelle is a spoiled little panda, but she has a good heart. She helps to run her mom and dad's curiosity shop, and her grandma and grandpa's restaurant. She's fond of embroidered silk clothes, but also loves climbing trees (she isn't the best btw, but she's better than me I can tell you that :) )
Harriet Marie Woods is a member of the underground Resistance fighting for carrots (yes she is a bunny).
Owen is a happy little seal who can make donuts out of thin air and who lives in the Playful Sea. Yes that's the name of the sea. It's actually quite a nice place, and what its name suggests, unlike a lot of happily-named fictional places (I think). However, sometimes Owen wishes there was more to life than this. He can sometimes find this by talking to his friend, Stephanie!
Astrid is a space octopus and wears the galaxies on her skin. She's really friendly and down-to-earth though, and always has a smile for everyone.
Oceania is a mer-princess, though she is too young for Royal duties. She spends her time playing with her best friend Timmie.
Timmie is a chocolate ice cream cone. What more do you need?
Strawberry Rasberry Cheescake has their own bakery (fitting of their name), and sells enchanted treats (but they don't do bad things, they just taste really good and are magical).
Fillie is a land-traveling (roaming) circus performer and has her own act with Dap.
The Dapper Gingerbread Man. Dap loves to don his top hat and cane and dance and tell jokes!
the big Hello Kitty is wise and rad.
Honey is just her usual homey self, and always has a mug of apple cider ready for anyone who comes knocking on her oak tree door.
Peary and Honey are the best of friends, and Peary spends the days with her on adventures!
Stephanie is a portal-collector. Yes. That is what it sounds like.
Rihanna is a magical creature of the sea. Her powers are linked to bubbles, though what they do exactly is a mystery. She's quite active in town activities though. To be noted: she's not named after the singer, she's named after a book character :) I honestly didn't even know the singer existed until the last Super Bowl...
Kanga is a witch of the Plains.
Joey is a curious little kangaroo, he spends his days with his sister.
Rue/Ruth: not much is known about Rue/Ruth. I did not even know she existed until this moment. It is unsure whether she is a ghost, an imaginary friend, or something else (some past regret, maybe?). Either way, she spends her days playing in the grass with Joey.
Isabella "Bella" is a unicorn who is obsessed with trying to find the reason why it's "a unicorn" and not "an unicorn". She makes most things happen, though no one (but me, the omniscient narrator >:) ) knows it.
Pinwheel likes to spend its days spinning lazily in the wind. Sometimes they wonder if there if a purpose to everything, but for now, it is just content the way they are.
Fawn is the magical deer of the forest. She is now a pillow.
Ellie Phant is the magical wish-granter of the worlds. She often travels with Martha and Starlight.
Martha came to Evanescence on a shooting star. She may even be the cosmos themselves.
Starlight Grace (Starlight/Grace) is the Bunny of the Bushes (sorta like the Bunny of the Moon even though I don’t think that’s a thing). She is magic, but even more than that, she is a loyal friend and is the Berry Bounter.

The famous Chrysanthemum Candytuft Jasper: Candy Lover and Maker of Arcane Potions
i think treat would wear black fingerless gloves if treat was a human.
(May 9, 2024 - 5:07 pm)
The Recently-Named Miranda "Miri" Marbles, who spends their time collecting random items, decorating things, and of course causing as much chaos as she can. They don't really like their full name, Miranda, and instead go by Miri most of the time. the only problem is that now i sometimes think of her as a cooking ingrediant (because Miri sounds like mirin) oh well.
(May 9, 2024 - 5:10 pm)
Chrysanthemum Candytuft Jasper's house!! or one design for it at least. Treat can climb up the ledges to get to the balcony thing on the top :D
(May 9, 2024 - 5:12 pm)
So cuteee!!!!! And, why, thank you! *accepts cookie* (btw my AE CeCe's pyrenees puppy is also named Miri!!)
and I love the house!! The design is really interesting. I mean, it looks so simple, but then you look closer and there's so much detail like I loveee the balcony and ledges so much and then the door kinda has the same shape as the window and it all looks so homeyy I sort of honestly want to live there (if you can tell, I can't draw houses, sooo... respect)!!
(May 9, 2024 - 7:20 pm)
I made a stuffie notebook! the notebook is shockingly nice for the price with really good paper that even works with fountain pens so that's nice. so far i just have an index (which means I have to number pages *shudders*), ideas for pages to make, basic info about Chrysanthemum, unconfirmed ideas about stuffies (a place to put thoughts like "maybe Chrysanthemum knits", which we decided treat does), and favorite candies pages. From Favorite Candies with a bit of editing:
Chrysanthemum Candytuft Jasper loves any candy treat can get treats hands on. Caramel, lollipops, wispy cotton candy [cotton candy that slowly turns to wisps and floats away as you eat it], and taffy are treats favorites. treat tried li hing mui when we were visiting Grandma and treat really liked it. Treat liked li hing gummy apples most, then li hing mango.
Vermillion, a Bashful Cottontail Bunny whose full name isn't completely certain, says they aren't a big candy eater. (Chrysanthemum, who is sitting next to me, is shocked and confouned.) They like fudge, though, and always keep some in their basket [which has endless storage. they're kind of like Red Riding Hood because there's a Little Red Riding Hood dance in The Sleeping Beauty]
Chamomile Honeycomb likes making hard candies with essential oils like lavender and peppermint. He's also a fan of the honey candies the bees bring him.
Junpei is neither picky nor terribly excited by candy. However he will gladly eat toffee or other hard candies when he has a lot of reading or filing to do [at the library he works at]

Things to ask your stuffies and figure out about them. might add more later:
Books they like, dislike, or would find interesting enough to check out at the library
Favorite (or least favorite) seasons and why (and favorite season fairy in Cinderella :P and favorite ballet.)
What sort of role would they want to play in a ballet or other form of acting-type thing (like a play)?
What do they own? What do they treasure? is there anything they want to get rid of?
One random fact about them
Super specific things they like (things like acorn caps or a certain part in a song or spiders on rose flowers)
Favorite holiday, or opinion on holidays (big or small, religious or not)
Favorite candies, fruits, or teas/hot drinks
Maybe find a menu and decide what they'd order?
What sort of store would they like to own? Or museum or art gallery or theater or whatever
Sleep habits, when they wake up or go to bed

Ahem. Today I am sitting down with Hei Bai, the raccoon from Yosemite. Say hi, Hei Bai! *Hei Bai jumps up and down in an attempt to say hello but the camera is being difficult so now he's pouting in the corner* ok this camera is really annoying me. Well, he looks really cute right now!! I'll try to send a picture of him later! Anyway. I am going to interview Hei Bai using this comprehensive list of questions from a Chatterboxer, Blackfooted Bobcat!!! *Hei Bai is curious.
favorite/not-as-much favorite books?: he says sometimes he likes books but also he would rather explore in the woods.
...
that's not really an answer.
Ok he says really any genre that's exciting and like adventure.
...you mean, like, Adventure??
He says, no, just any genre.
...
moving on!
Favorite season?: autumn
Least favorite season: summer
WAIT REALLY WHYYY?!?? No school!! :DDD
Hei Bai says raccoons don't go to school anyways and summer is too hot.
...okay that's valid. :/
What sort of role in ballet/acting/performing arts: Hei Bai says he would be a ballerina.
...but what sort of ballerina??
Hei Bai says he doesn't really know the sorts of ballerinas.
but like what role I think. Like the sugar plum fairy or a princess or the evil stepmother
Hei Bai is sticking to his answer of just a ballerina (ballet dancer? No, he says ballerina)
Okay, what about in a play?
Hei Bai says he wants to do improv and he wants to be the evil sorcerer-wizard who goes around placing curses on everyone.
aww, not my adorable little raccoon placing curses on people!! :DD
Possessions?: acorns, twigs, books, a mirror, couch, table, tree stump house (wait WHAT you live in a tree stump when was I gonna know that??), leaves, fall leaves displayed under glass in a box...
Prized possessions?: a really long stick
:/
and the leaves in the glass case.
Possessions you wished you didn't have?: all the books because he doesn't need all these big bookshelves full of books crowding his room and right next to the blazing fireplace because he can just borrow the books from the library and also that's a fire hazard.
HEI BAI HAVING A FIREPLACE IN A TREE STUMP HOUSE IS A FIRE HAZARD!!! ( :) tut tut.)
One random fact: he doesn't play any instruments.
Super specific things he likes: twigs/sticks, Fall leaves, spiderweb strands but only in theory (like he imagines them in his mind's eye but doesn't like coming into contact with them)
Favorite holiday/opinion on holidays: likes holidays. Doesn't like Halloween. Likes the word October. If October were a holiday, his favorite holiday would be October. (*eyeroll* :) ) Favorite holiday is Memorial Day because it's coming up (we think). And he just likes the way it sounds. It reminds him of the way October sounds.
Favorite candies/fruits/teas/hot drinks: loveeessss the hot almond drink and is okay with boba (heh and my boba has been in the fridge for a week because I don't like boba why did I get it again at least it was free) and green tea wait really-
says candy is too artificial/unnatural
EVEN CHOCOLATE?!??
does not like chocolate.
also doesn't like pumpkin spice or apple cider even though I would assume he does because Fall
from my favorite pho place he would order the green bean (mung bean) soup and nothing else lol
What sort of place would you like to own?: says maybe a museum (Fall-themed, ofc). Mostly doesn't want to own anything because it's too much work and he's lazy.
um Hei Bai you're not that lazy.. you're actually pretty... not lazy? I mean, you can work when you have to. You just like relaxing. That's sorta different??
Sleep habits: he actually has pretty good sleep habits (he's younger btw). :D
thank you Blackfooted Bobcat for this opportunity!!!
ok fine thank you too, hei bai
yay the photo uploaded! Also I reached the limit on the scrollover/mouseover text XDD
PS but like seriously I can't punish him LOOK AT THAT FACE
