I’m planning on selling fandom plushies, they will be a mix of crocheted and sewn. The crocheted stuff will be animals/creatures from anime, as well as Pokémon. And the sewing aspect would be life sized Pokémon plushie (which would range in size and probably be more of the focus of the shop) would you say this is too broad, or any other opinions would be great!
A word of warning: unless you have obtained licensing from the original maker (i.e. Pokemon themselves) you cannot legally sell reproductions of others' original works/characters.
I've done a lot of thinking and I would like to look into using manufacturers. But when I Google it I don't really find serious companies. Any tips or is there maybe a video? :)
Mei thank you for this information, I am looking to start a toy company. Can you make a 2024 version of this? things change rapidly so if you can do that it would be great.
Hi! Thank you so much for the suggestion and for watching! We'll see if I can make a 2024 version of this! ❤️ In the meantime, just let me know if you have any questions. 😊 Good luck with your toy company!! ❤️
Hi Asia! I don't personally make plushies. I'm just giving advice to on how to start a business if you're into sewing them. Your fabric choice is going to totally depend on your design aesthetic. Also, I'm going to be doing a live workshop here today! If you're subscribed, hit the bell to be notified when it starts!
Thank you so much for the tips! Do you have any suggestions or experiences about Labeling, Licensing & Safety Laws for handmade plush toys to sell on Shopify? Seems not too much information can be found online. Thank you!
I’m planning to start a business but since I can’t make plushies, I’m having them be manufactured which is much more expensive 😩 I’ll be launching a Kickstarter tho!
I want to start with handmade pluche and start selling on etsy. But I am afraid someone will steal my ideas. Because I have such a good idea and want it to be mine 😭
Go for it!! ❤️ Don't let the thought of someone stealing your ideas stop you. No matter how many people copy you, you'll always be the original one and they can't take that away from you. You got this!! Good luck!! ❤️❤️
