Now that Valentine’s Day has come and gone, we’re looking ahead to the next special occasion on our calendars – Easter!

Knowing Easter is near gives us a creative spark and helps us look forward to brighter, warmer days. Easter symbolizes new life and can be an opportunity to refresh and renew – even when it comes to embroidery!

Planning on embroidering some new Buddies or other pieces to help celebrate this special holiday? Here are some fresh ideas to try this year.

Easy as 1-2-3 Chic Stockings

That’s right – stockings aren’t just for Christmas!

This year, skip the traditional Easter basket in favour of an Embroider Buddy® Easy as 1-2-3 Chic Stocking. Choose from gorgeous jewel-toned fabrics like soft pink, lilac purple and ice blue that are perfect for spring. Embroider them with names, Easter greetings, or some of your favourite things about the occasion. With lots of embroidable space, you’ll never have to worry about making room for all your creativity! Plus, they have ample space inside to hide all the Easter goodies from a big egg hunt.

Embroider Buddy® Stuffed Animals

What would Easter be without Buddies? Bunnies and lambs are some animals that we traditionally think of during Easter. Luckily, we have both!

Simply unzip our 16” Lambton Lamb Buddy, Buddy Bunny, Bella Buddy Bunny or even Monty Monkey Buddy to start creating your unique Easter keepsakes. Self-contained stuffing pods for the head and belly are removable through a hidden zipper on the bottom of the animals making hooping and embroidery easy on any embroidery machine.

What sort of messages will you choose to embroider? Here are some we’ll be trying this season:

• Some bunny loves me!
• Hoppy Easter
• Follow the bunny – he has chocolate!
• Wishing you peace, love and happiness, at Easter and always
• Happy Easter, Happy Spring, Happy, Happy Everything!
• My first egg hunt

Try something new this Easter – Embroider Buddy® Blankeys

Looking for a smaller keepsake for a new baby or a young child? Our Embroider Blankeys are a wonderful gift that they will cherish beyond Easter. Hop on into the season with the 16” Mini Lamb Blankey Buddy, the 20” Lambton Lamb and the 10” Buddy Bunny – these sweet designs are cozy for year-round cuddles and are perfect for a special embroidery design or message!

More Easter Items to Love

Did you know that our sister company, Parkdale Creature Comforts has even more plush Easter items to love? It’s impossible not to think Easter when you see the Lamb Cuddle Pal, who just happens to fit our WhatzUpWithThat!® Bearwear perfectly. For an undeniably cuddly Easter bunny with embroidable ears, Bertram Bunny and Buttercup Bunny make adorable gifts for baby’s first Easter or a baby shower around the holiday.

Take a peek at the Parkdale spring flyer to see the entire product line, and for added convenience, we can ship Embroider Buddy® and Parkdale products together. Just add them to your order form!
