As promised, today’s newsletter features wonderful Valentines Day teddy bears, stuffed animals, and plush gift items from just a few of the excellent wholesale companies listed on FGMarket.com!
Speaking of teddy bears, there are probably more plush animals sold at Valentines Day than during Christmas. According to their manufacturers, the bears at First & Main, Inc. have been “stitched with love.” Their Angel Bears sport cupid-like wings and wear dainty floral necklaces and headbands (cleverly draped over one ear). ‘Minky’ is an old-fashioned style teddy bear constructed of soft faux mink material, making him perfect for cuddling. ‘Tucker’ is a little shaggier, a little plumper, and wears an appropriately red bow around his neck. ‘Delaney’ is a white bear with a soft pink snout and a burgundy bow, make him an ideal Valentines Day messenger. First & Main offers an entire menagerie of bears, stuffed animals, and other plush characters – even people – designed especially for the holiday, as well as for year-round sales.
Another excellent source for Valentines Day stuffed animals and plush, Fiesta Toy Company has a website with several pages of whimsical critters that are dedicated to the occasion. From a wide range of bears, gorillas, puppies, tigers and other plush fauna, their 9″ Sitting Polka-Dot Frog has got to be the star! His big, floppy feet keep him balanced as he stretches his arms as wide as he can to reveal the words, “I love you THIS MUCH!” emblazoned on his belly. He’s irresistible, and he’s only one of a large selection of plush valentine creatures at Fiesta. A few noteworthy standouts include the floppy-eared, Assorted Comical Puppies, each dragging a string of hearts in his mouth, as well as the cuddly 9.5″ Sitting Bears, holding heart-shaped Valentine Gift Boxes that can be used to contain a special, personal Valentine’s Day surprise. Did someone say “diamond ring?” For flower shops and florists, Fiesta has a fun, loveable assortment of Vase Huggers – bears, monkeys, pandas and puppies – whose arms can easily slide over a valentines bud vase of roses. What a great, eye-catching way to upgrade an otherwise ordinary sale!
Retailers can enjoy special pricing on quantity purchases for Valentine’s Day and everyday, at Anico Plush. Browse their Everyday product section to find a vast array of plush bears in all shapes, sizes, colors and species, any of which could be easily spruced up for the holiday. ‘Minky Bear’ is especially soft, as his name implies, and he’s available in standing or lying down versions. Their Valentine 2006 collection features an assortment of adorable bears and puppies, appropriately decked out in pinks and reds with hats, ribbons, and heart accents. One especially cute shaggy white 11″ bear, with red nose and ears, carries a red heart that reads “XO XO.” There’s no mistaking that message!
