"Smudge" plush toy from Paisley Fawn

"If you go out in the woods today… You’re sure of a big surprise… If you go out in the woods today…. You’d better go in disguise…. Because today’s the day the Teddy Bear Smudges have their picnic!" These Quirky little guys are soft, friendly, and looking for new homes. Each one is a little bit different, and ALL are unique and 100% hand-crafted in the USA by plush artist Paisley Fawn. This series is limited to only 25 pieces, as the tummy is made from a vintage crocheted wool afghan that has been carefully felted in the washing machine. The teddy bear smudges are about 5 1/2" tall and 9" long. The perfect size if you ask me! To order a limited edition "Smudge" for just $65 a piece, and can be found via her online store HERE.


So you may be asking yourself... what the heck is a Smudge??? Well, Smudges are itty bitty artistic muses that love to hang out wherever humans are. They come in many different varieties, colors and breeds. The standard smudge is only 2.5" tall and 3" long, however tiny 1" mini-smudges and large 3' tall breeds have been seen in the wild! To me, they are almost a mix between a bear and a whale... a nice bulbous body with a fun unassuming face.
