DesignerCon 2012: Susuten

DesignerCon 2012: Susuten  photo


Susuten's booth at DesignerCon was bursting at the seams with Melissa B. Hsu's handmade plushes of assorted sizes and characters. One of the characteristics of Melissa's work that caught my eye was the simplicity of the plushes' designs and color schemes. Even the plushes that utilized printed fabric, like the beaver and the flower pot, had bold lines and weren't overly complex. I could easily see these darling plushes appealing to both younger and adult collectors.

The booth had full-size plushes on a side display and in a basket on the center table. Also on the table were small plush charms of smiling trees, colorful birds, and happy woodland animals. There were also tiny Teddy Bears and plush plants in little pots. One of the more unique plushes I spotted at the Susuten booth, was the anthropomorphized Baconoki (enoki mushrooms wrapped in bacon). The poor thing didn't look to anxious to be eaten.

Check out the gallery to see more of Susuten's booth at DesignerCon 2012!

DesignerCon 2012: Yetis & Friends

Prior to DesignerCon, my knowledge of Yetis & Friends' work was limited to what was available on their Etsy shop. I think their most iconic toys are their yeti plush trophies, which, as one might expect, are plush heads o...

Nonesuch Garden's booth at Pasadena's DesignerCon made me quite nostalgic, with her doll house-sized plushes and imaginative elves that look as though they leapt out of a picture book. The wide range of handmade plush animals...

DesignerCon 2012: Beary Happy

Beary Happy is an upcoming line of plush toys. Yes, they're mostly bear-themed, but that doesn't necessarily mean they'll all be bears. There's even one that's a flying monkey, it seems! And a little girl dressed up in a bear suit, to boot. Check out some of the photos we snapped up from the Beary Happy booth, and stay tuned for any news we've got on the line!

DesignerCon 2012: doubleparlour

The creations of doubleparlour are really ones you'll love ... or hate. They aren't the cuddliest sculptures in the world, and for some, they might be the stuff of nightmares. But to me, there's something interesting about se...
