Hi guys! I've been gone for so long! But I'm still alive and I keep making plushies and art in general. I just don't use DA anymore... Well, I am posting some plushies rn, but still. I'm most active on IG. I share stuff daily on my multiple accounts.


I now have a small business!! I create merch with my own illustrations! I started in August last year and I recently started boothing and all that. I'm finally accomplishing the dream I had when I started this account about... 15 years ago?? lol


I don't know if the people I met here long ago are still around. Do let me know if you are! And I don't think there's anyone new since this thing was dead. So, I guess no one will read this;;;


See you~

Hi guys!

I hope you're doing okay during this pandemic. It's a hard time in many different aspects for all of us. I'm lucky I get to work from home so I'm still making some money. However, I'm 10 times busier and more stressed than when going to my work place. I'm an ESL teacher and online tutoring is killing me, especially when I have to deal with kids. 

Anyway, unfortunaly, besides the lockdown and this awful virus, my country has been struggling with economic problems for years and every month there are new limitations, fees, inflation, etc. Thing is, the government won't let us use our credit cards to pay for stuff in a foreing currency, so I can't pay for things I need to pay. My Paypal balance is 0.00USD right now and there's money I owe from before all this stuff happened.

All this intro was to say that I'll be offering 10% off in all commissions. I'm not working in any plushies atm so I'm free and ready to start sewing. Check my commission info HERE and send me a note if you're interested :)

Besides, I've been drawing a lot lately and I started practicing digital art. So, I'm also accepting drawing commissions. These are pretty cheap because I'm a beginner. You can contact me for more info. I'll be sharing some of my latest art here on DA but you can take a look at my INSTAGRAM.

Thanks for reading and stay safe!!

:star: COMMISSION PROCESS

1. If you're under aged ask your parents for permission to commission me BEFORE contacting me; take into account that you must provide your personal information and that you'll need an adult to send the payment to me.

2. Fill in and send the following form to me in a note (on Deviant Art) or by email to violet_lunchell@msn.com

Your first name:
Your country:
Method of payment:
Shipping: regular/registered (tracked)
Name of the character:
Reference pics: (full body, front and back, details if needed)

Details: (here you'd write specific details that you want me to take into account)

4. After evaluating complexity of the character I'm going to tell you if I can "plushify" it or not. If I can, I'll give you a quote including shipping and other fees.

5. If you accept the price all you need to do is give me your Paypal email address so I can send you an invoice.

6. I'll start working on your plushie after I've received the payment. Depending on the number of pending commissions and how busy I am, it can take me from 1 month to 3 months approximately to have your plushie finished.

7. When I finish your plushie I'll send it to you via airmail.

8. Let me know when you receive your order!

:star: IMPORTANT INFORMATION

*If your package gets lost or damaged I won't be responsible. I haven't had that problem yet, but I'm saying this just in case. The best way to make sure that your plushie will arrive safely is by choosing "registered mail". Regular mail has worked perfectly so far tho.

Advise: Use the tracking number! You're paying to get it so please make sure to keep track of your plushie can call your local postal service for any additional information about it.

*I'm not responsible for customs fees in case they apply in your country. Anyway, I mark all packages as gifts and also mark down the price on the customs declaration sheet. I usually mark half the real price of the plushie. If you don't agree with this please do let me know and I will mark the real value.

*No refunds nor returns. I will send you pics of your plushie before mailing it in case you want me to change/add something. Once you tell me everything is OK, there isn't anything else I can do.

*I will start working on commissions after I receive the whole payment for them. I'm happy to accept installments but I will start working on your order once you've paid the total cost.

*I don't mind answering your questions about commissions but please check this post before asking anything. Also, if you contact me by note on DA, try to keep it all in the same note (answer to the same "thread" of notes instead of sending a new one), that way it's easier for me to keep track.

*I have dogs but they never get close to my working place. Please, take this into account if you have a severe allergy to dogs.

*I don't do wholesales.

:heart: How to take care of your plushie

My plushies are completely handmade. I hand-sew their bodies and clothes and hand-paint their faces. They are not toys. They are little pieces of art. I use the best materials I can get to make them and I attach their parts the best I can. But you need to take care of them, they are not meant to be played with. You shouldn't let them get dirty either. In the case you need to wash them, do it very carefully, do not use a washing machine. The paint I use for their faces is water resistant so that shouldn't be a problem. However, I use glue to attach certain parts of their bodies and accessories. If these parts get wet the glue might come off. I always sew the pants/skirts to the bodies of the plushies. If these clothes get dirty and you need to wash them, I recommend you to unsew them and then re-sew them. It's not very difficult to do. 

:star: PLUSHIE TYPES

*Human chibi
*Kawaii characters (cute food, animals, etc)

That's what I can make by now. I prefer not to make mechas, mosters or anthros. However, I like challenges so if you're not sure if I'd be able to make certain plushie, send me a note and we'll see!

:star: PLUSHIE SIZES AND PRICES

*The sizes are in centimeters, if you want to know them in other systems this is a quick link to a converter.

*The price of the plushie depends on its complexity, fabrics and special details or accessories you want me to add. The following is only general information so you can have an idea of how much your custom plushie would cost.

*The following information is for "human" plushies only.

*I'm only making standard sized (30 cm) plushies at the moment.

:heart: Small kawaii plushies: US$20-US$50

:heart: Simple plushies: US$50-US$70

:heart: Detailed and/or accessorized plushies: US$70-US$100

:heart: Plushies that require intricate details and patterns: US$100-US$250 or more

:star: PLUSHIES IN STOCK

I don't usually have plushies in stock but if I happen to, I'll list them here.

:star: SHIPPING

I ship from Argentina bya Correo Argentino (www.correoargentino.com.ar/). 

Shipping cost varies depending on weight range (up to 100g, from 100g to 500g, from 500g to 1kg, and so on) and location, of course. A simple plushie usually weighs 150g which means that I can mail up to 3 simple plushies for the same price. The shipping options I offer are: Regular (without tracking number) and Registered (with tracking number). I offer regular mail for tiny cheap plushies. For regular plushie wich usually cost over 50USD, I'll only ship via registered mail for safety. If you are in a rush you can ask for a estimate for Express Mail (EMS), but take into account that it can be quite pricey.

Contact me for a shipping cost estimate!

:star: PAYMENT

I only accept payment via Paypal.

*ALL PRICES ARE IN USD. I WON'T ACCEPT ANY OTHER CURRENCY. To convert your currency to USD you can use this.

Thanks for reading and write to me if you have any questions! :)

Hi guys! 

The last time I posted here was in 2016... I'm sorry I've been absent. Although I randomly come around to reply to notes. Believe it or not, I still continue making plushies. In fact, I never stop! Every time I finish one, there's another one to work on. I'm just not posting them here. I sometimes share them on my Instagram and sometimes I'm commissioned so many times for the same character that I just don't post it anymore lol

I got back into drawing too! :D

If you're interested (or you wanna make sure I didn't disappear) you can follow me here:

I hope everyone is doing fine! If you read this, let me know what you've been up to!

Hugs,

Hi guys!

I'll be coming back home from Japan in a week and I'll be ready to start working on plushies as soon as I arrive! I really miss sewing! So, if you want me to make a custom plushie for you, this is your chance! For the first time in years I'm completely free with no pending commissions. I'll give 10% off of the total of your order (including shipping) if you request a commission within the following week.

Here's my commission info

Don't hesitate to ask for estimates! Send me a note or an email to violet_lunchell@msn.com

Thank you! :heart:
