Frequently Asked Questions

Who makes Bebito plush toys?

Good question.  Bebito is a brand of goods invented by Rachel Hedges, an artist in Indianapolis.  She creates them with the help of a studio assistant and a lot of coffee.  Bebito is also sustained by a strong community of supportive customers, friends, and family.

What do you make the toys out of?

Sweaters - mostly wool and cashmere repurposed from items that are found, donated or discarded

Repurposed Leather - mainly cut from used jackets or skirts

Vintage Fabrics - interesting or cool patterns or designs from fabrics or textiles from days gone by

Felt - wool or synthetic felt in bright or bold colors is perfect for details. 

New Fabrics - a small amount of new fabrics are used, usually plush or faux fur 

Embroidery floss - from the giant collection inherited from Rachel's grandmother.

Polyfil - the toys are given their shape when stuffed with polyester fiberfill, which comes from a recyclable source when possible, other times we use brand new.

Vintage Eletreo Grande Deluxe  - sewing machine that must be 60 years old but still works great! 

Do you do custom orders?

YES! Custom orders are always treated with special attention and care. We appreciate each opportunity to bring new inspiration to the Bebito work, so each request is considered thoughtfully and carefully.  We strive to accommodate each individual order, and look forward to hearing your ideas and collaborating with you on a meaningful project.
