Custom plushies · Soft & minimal style

# Jellycat-style plushies, made under your own brand

Super-soft fur, a slouchy body, a quiet embroidered face. If your brand or your corporate gift needs that look, Takara develops an original plushie in the same spirit and has it made at a vetted partner factory in Vietnam, with your label, hangtag and packaging.

01 · What makes the look

## Six details behind the soft, minimal plushie style

The style is a set of construction choices, not a secret. These are the ones to put in your brief.

01

### Super-soft, short-pile fur

A dense, velvety surface that feels expensive in the hand. Crystal Velboa and 1.5 mm minky are the usual choices; sherpa or bouclé add texture.

**In your brief:** Name the fabric feel you want and send a reference swatch or photo.

02

### A slouchy, floppy body

Limbs and ears are filled lightly so they hang and flop, while the body keeps its shape. It comes from the pattern and the filling density, not the fabric alone.

**In your brief:** Say which parts should flop and which should stand.

03

### A minimal embroidered face

Small embroidered eyes and nose instead of plastic eyes. It keeps the face calm and avoids small parts on products for young children.

**In your brief:** Send the face as a simple front view; fewer lines embroider better.

04

### A weighted base

A pellet pouch sewn into a closed inner bag lets the plushie sit upright on a desk or shelf.

**In your brief:** Tell Takara if the product is meant for young children, because it affects testing.

05

### Everyday things with a face

Food, plants and objects turned into characters are a big part of the style, and they suit brands: a product, a dish or a mascot becomes a soft object.

**In your brief:** Start from one simple silhouette with few pattern pieces.

06

### A calm, muted palette

Creams, sage, dusty pink, soft browns. Colors are picked from stock fabric ranges, matched as closely as possible to your reference.

**In your brief:** Give Pantone references; custom-dyed fabric starts from 3,000 pcs.

03 · Retail vs custom

## Buying designer plush as gifts vs making your own plushie

Many companies hand out designer-brand plush as gifts. A custom plushie in the same style carries your brand instead of someone else’s.

| Factor | Designer plush bought at retail | Custom plushie through Takara |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Branding | The maker’s brand and label. | Your woven label (from 500 pcs per design), branded hangtag, embroidered logo and retail box. |
| Design | The same product anyone can buy. | Your own character or product as a plushie, made only for you. |
| Quantity | Any quantity, while stock lasts. | 500 pcs per design for Vietnam, 1,000 pcs per design for export. Ready catalogue patterns from 500 pcs per order, designs mixed. |
| Lead time | Immediate if in stock. | Sample in 7 to 10 working days, then production from 30 days after approval and deposit. |
| Unit cost | Retail price, including brand and retailer margins. | Quoted per design from the factory price, by size, fabric and quantity. |
| Colors | The brand’s current range. | Closest stock fabric to your reference; custom Pantone dyeing from 3,000 pcs. |
| Paperwork | A retail receipt. | VAT invoice in Vietnam; test reports for the destination market when goods are sold. |
