ElJay Plushie: Review & Giveaway

My boys are in love.  I was in love too from the first time I looked at the ElJay Plushie shop!  I am very honored to share ElJay Plushie as my 4th sponsor for the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT event! 

Do you see that sweet giraffe?  It is 15 inches tall and SUPER soft, the material is soft, excellent craftsmanship, and totally squeezable!  Oh, and he makes a great "daddy" to the little t-rex that Monkey loves so much.  I guess he's adopted.  He's got several other adorable friends for sale on ElJay Plushie.  These guys are looking for homes where they can be loved on by other boys and girls... and they will be loved!  ElJay Plushie animals are a treasure, they're handmade by Leah, a full-time crafter.  She just loves knowing that her talents are enjoyed by children and their families. 

Handmade Bunny Baby Rattle $15
I wish I knew someone that was going to have an Easter-time baby!  I've got 3 cousins (at least) that are pregnant, a sister in law, and a step-sister in law that are all expecting between June and November!  If one of them was having an Easter baby, I would just HAVE to give them this fantastic rattle.  Leah's rattles are new to her shop and her own original design.  They're incredibly sweet and made of the same super-soft fleece as the stuffed animals!
You can win this set!
Leah also makes pillows that coordinate with her animals.  These are also the super-soft fleece.  I can only imagine they're snuggly and squeezey like her animals.  I know any kid would love to have one of her pillows with a favorite animal (designed by Leah) on the front and a coordinating polka dot on the back!

The back of the hippo pillow

WIN IT:
You can win the above set - a stuffed hippo and coordinating pillow from ElJay Plushie!  The hippo measures approximately 15x9.  The pillow is 10x8.  This is a prize worth $45!  This contest is open to residents of the US.  It will close on Tuesday, April 26 at noon EST.

  1. i LOVE the hippo!!! My favorite on the page is the orange monkey. As much as I would love to have it for my kids, if I won the set, I would give it to my nephew, CJ. He is Autistic and LOVES things that are super soft. I think I've done everything I need to to enter! Hope I win :)
