Aussie Product Review tests our soft toy kits!

Apr 16, 2010 | A day in my life, Blog, FFF News

I suppose you are always going to be a teeny bit nervous (and excited at the same time) when someone asks if you’d like them to review your products, so I was really keen to hear what the independent reviewers from AussieProductReview.com would think of my Gertie Gecko and Kiki Koala Soft Toy Craft KITS

Needless to say, I was really pleased to see what lovely things they had said about my toy making kits (and ME!) : )

I will paste the review here but if you’d like to see the original post on their blog, just scroll down till you find theFunky Friends Factory Review.

I was very impressed with the professional way the review was handled and would highly recommendaussieproductreview.com to other small Aussie businesses like me!

Funky Friends Factory Review – aussieproductreview.com

This weeks review is for Funky Friends Factory who supply kits to make your own soft toys – these kits are very funky and include absolutely everything you need to make a delightful creation of your own for someone special. They come with easy instructions that help you make your toy within a day! We got to make ‘Gertie Gecko’ as shown above and also the cute ‘Kiki Koala’. All of the toys available on the site are cute, cuddly, safe and definitely great value for money!

Pauline, the creator of Funky Friends Factory says “I began making ‘baby-safe bunnies’ for all my friends with sewn on faces and no chewable, chokable bits. They were so popular that I moved on to mass production and that’s where the ‘factory’ bit comes from!”

The patterns clearly take you through the process easily step by step and the kit comes with all the fabric and fiddly bits you need and a picture of the completed item. If you’ve ever thought of making something for someone then these kits are definitely the way to go. And because you get the pattern you can continue to make the toys in any fabric you like for as long as you like. Very economical and a wonderful gift idea!

They have so many great toys to make we thought we’d show you a few more of Pauline’s fantastic creations!



Well, the Gertie Gecko they made turned out great and I love the way they took the time to photograph him in the garden amongst the flower bed mulch! You can check out the other great Aussie businesses they have reviewed on their site – AussieProductReview.com .

If you’ve made Gertie or Kiki – I’d love to know what you thought of them too!!!
