MAN-E-NEWS// The ‘Feelings’ plush toys from Taylored Curiosites…

Through the wonders of Twitter yesterday, we became acquainted with the enchanting world of Taylored Curiosities, an aromatherapy plush and designer toy company based in Plymouth, UK. Created by Penny Taylor of  Tiny Oyster Designs, Taylored Curiosities have produced several therapeutic plush toys under the ‘Feelings’ banner, with recent additions coming in the form of the orange ‘Wired’, royal blue ‘Afraid’, and grey mother and baby set, ‘Worried’.

Each hand made plush comes lovingly stuffed with an ‘extra squishy chubby belly’ and either a dried lavender, chamomile, or jasmin filling depending on which Feeling takes your fancy. Priced between £6-£10 plus shipping, the Feelings are available exclusively from the Taylored Curiosities store now…

“I studied Psychology alongside Alternative Therapies, specialising in Aromatherapy, for two years. Since then I have helped quite a few friends and family members through low periods of their life and depression. It was all this combined that started my obsession with trying to make a plush toy that could make a difference. I wanted to produce something that you could hold in your hand and that specialised in healing you naturally with scents. This is how the Feelings came to be.”- Penny Taylor

Displaying skills outside of the plush scene as well, Penny will also be featuring in the upcoming Heavy Metal Qee custom show with her entry 8″ Monqee pictured above. Featuring a full roster of 30 UK artists and designers including Zukaty, Run DMB, and Fadeworks, expect an official date and location announcement for the London based event on the dedicated Heavy Metal Qee site soon…
