Boira Plushies
Welcome to Boira Plushies
If you want to know more about us or our commissions, you can explore our site. We're very excited to meet new customers and work on their projects.
Who are we?
We're two girls, Jenni and Cris. We're professional plushmakers. It's our main source of income and our lifestyle, and we love it!
We've been making plushies for 8 years, but only 6 in a professional way. We started making them as presents for each other or friends, and realized we had a future as makers. So we decided to try it out and we don't regret it.
Our style is making the plushies as realistic and faithful to their original design as possible. We don't have a problem on making cute or chibi plushies, but if you let us choose, the more faithful to the original design, the better.
We love challenges!
We enjoy making any plush from series, games and also original characters. But the most challenging projects are the ones that we like the most! When a customer shows us a challenging design, we put a lot of effort on it. We love to try out new techniques and patterns, experiment with different tools and finishings for each commission. So don't hesitate to tell us about your ideas, it doesn't matter how crazy you think they are.
How do we organize ourselves?
Cris, the artist behind everything
Cris is the one that makes the patterns from scratch. She has a lot of artistic skills in both the textile and drawing fields.
Without her, there wouldn't be any plushies, and she puts a lot of effort on making our creations unique. Sometimes she feels a lot of pressure, but she always manages to make plushies that surprise the customers. She puts passion on each stitch!
She is in charge for patterning, making the prototypes for each commission, designing the embroideries and give the finishing touches to the plushies.
Jenni, the community manager
Jenni is the one that always speaks with people. She's the one that organizes our portfolios, takes plush photos, checks social media, gives a good customer service and advertises our work. She also orders all the matrials, organizes our stock and shippings.
In addition, she's the one that makes the most repetitive parts, like sewing and preparing preorders, marking and cutting pieces, make the embroideries and check out the plushies before shipping them. She's also the quality checker of the prototypes.
Boira, our brand's mascot
Every brand needs a mascot that represents it. And Boira is in charge of ours.
This sea slug bunny is a species we created long ago, and we called it Slunny. You can tell Boira apart from the other slunnies because he wears his emblematic winged backpack. It's an easter egg regarding our past, that many of you know about.
You can always see him in our posts and profiles. Our dream is to someday sell merch of him and other original creations
It's very hard to be such an adorable mascot!
