Organic cotton candy corn stuffy 🍂🧺

This pattern is really easy to self-draft simply by drawing out a triangle to the size you want, then cutting it into three sections (top, middle, and bottom)

We’ll have a small batch of these up on our website this weekend available for purchase 🤎 100% natural fibers. Organic cotton & wool. ☁️

What is the difference between our organic cotton & wool stuffing?

We love both equally and it really comes down to preference! We like to stuff all of our animals to feel the same initially (firm but lovable) the difference between the two stuffings really shows more overtime.

Organic cotton stuffing may feel a little bit denser, easily settles, and gives more of that “rag doll” well-loved stuffy feel overtime.

Wool stuffing may feel a bit springier or squishier, and holds its shape a little bit more rather than settling as it gets loved on overtime.

Both are great options and my kids genuinely love both! I hope this helps when deciding which stuffing would be better for your little ones. Let us know if you have any questions! 🤎
