Hi! ^^ I thought it would be fun to share some pics of my Hypno and Warren inspired plushies :]
The hippo is a weighted plushie from the Etsy shop, CuddleCalm. I spool knit the worm with soft yarn and used a pipe-cleaner to make him pose-able and sewed him a tiny outfit. I also made the top hat and jacket for Hypno :]
(Note: my version of Hypno has a top hat not a turban since it was confirmed canon Hypno was not wearing a turban for religious reasons. His turban is a costume, and that is culturally insensitive to put it mildly.)
I gave Hypno’s jacket lapels; though they’re hard to see when he’s wearing it so here’s a picture of the jacket (and hat.) Also here’s a couple close-ups of Warren and a picture of them with me.
Watched various videos by Lixie Pig Crafts on YouTube to help figure out how to make the jacket and assorted videos on collars and lapels, plus lots of puzzling together pieces of paper while making a pattern. Watched a video called DIY mini top hat tutorial by Fleece Fun on YouTube for the hat, but I sewed instead of glued.
Also, if you happen to be interested in weighted plushies, I definitely recommend the plushies Stephanie Edmonds makes for her Etsy shop, CuddleCalm <3 The ones I’ve bought seem like high quality and are super soft. There is a long wait time though, usually a couple months. But they are hand made and she offers a bunch of different kinds of animals (and blankets too) plus lots of fabric/color options and other customization options. (She is dealing with some medical issues in her family, so I’m sure she could use the support.)
