"Soft and Cuddly"

Plush and Stuffies, or also known as "Stuffed Dolls," really have their roots in pillows and the age old Teddy Bear. The simplest form of toy and design lies in filling two pieces of cloth with stuffing. Farmers stuff scarecrows with hay to give them shape, textile firms use all sorts of fibers for pillows, and designers fill them up with various goods to create unique creatures!

"Creatures Under the Bed"

Character Branding refers to the creation of a unique line of characters, or even just one character. Iconography and Pop Imagery are other themes artists have used to center their work around since Andy Warhol. The creation of these figures often lead to cultural icons, such as Astro Boy, Hello Kitty, The Incredible Hulk, and a vast array of other characters.
