Soft n' Sweet as Sugar... the Fruit Friends are HERE!
welcome to... Fruit Friends Plushie Collection!
Hello! I'm Bunnie, an artist and designer, and I truly thank you so much for checking out my newest plushie designs and your interest in them! ♡ The Fruit Friends are an adorable collection of super sweet fruit-themed stylized animal-inspired plushies! I figured as 'StrawbunnyCake', a collection of Fruit Friends would be something cute that would be enjoyable to design and share with everyone!~
Meet the Fruit Friends
~The Fruit Friends~ consist of Taohua the refreshing peach-themed deer fawn, Macaron the ultra sweet cherry-themed hyena, Muffin the shy yet kind-hearted blueberry-themed fennec fox, and a fun addition being Tangerabbit, the peppy and energetic tangerine bunny who also happens to be my first character I actually ever designed; since she was the first one ever, I thought a brand new special edition version of her would mark this project as even more extra special!~
The rewards for the Fruit Friends consists of (in order of lowest individual price to highest):
Jumbo Holographic Tangerabbit Sticker
Holographic Muffin Heart Button
Taohua Wooden Pin
Holographic Acrylic Macaron Keychain Charm
(Approximately) 14" inch sized Super Soft Plush
Slightly discounted bundles will be available for rewards as well as a freebie jumbo Macaron & Taohua sticker set for early-bird backers and a small acrylic Macaron pin for returning backers as a big 'thank you' for the support!~ All rewards will also be available as add-ons so you may freely hand-pick your rewards and curate your own perfect Fruit Friends care package!~
