Peculiar Pets™ are no longer available for wholesale

The Peculiar Pets will no longer be offered for wholesale purchase. Over the last couple of years the price of the chenille blankets has tripled, and it has gotten much harder to acquire. I appreciate all of your orders and support over the years, and I will be working on new products soon!

Peculiar Pets™

Peculiar Pets are made using repurposed damaged vintage bedspreads. Once the damaged area is removed, the "good part" is used to create the pets. They are stuffed with fiber fill that is 80% recycled plastic water bottles, and then embellished using wool felt and hand stitching. The pets are machine washable, making them suitable for children as well as adults.

Peculiar Pets are all one of a kind, as we can only get so many out of a bedspread. No matter how hard we try, no two ever end up looking exactly the same. All felt embellishments are hand cut and sewn, so each pet has its own personality. Also, because of the different fabric types, some pets are slightly larger than others. Because of the use of vintage fabrics (some may be 50+ years old!) there may be fading, or small discolorations on your pet. We feel this just adds to the charm and individuality of your pet. Rest assured, we would never send out a stained pet or one with a hole. The pets are all checked numerous times before leaving the studio to insure you will receive a healthy strong pet, sure to be around for a long time.
