Handmade by the maker. SCRAPD hand-reviews every storefront before it can list, and factory toys resold as craft are rejected. A listing here was sewn, stuffed, or assembled by hand.
It depends on the piece - some handmade plushies, dolls, and puppets are made as decorative or collector items rather than children’s toys. Check the listing for age guidance and message the maker if you are buying for a young child.
Materials and care notes are in each listing. Handmade toys often need gentle or spot cleaning - if anything is unclear, the maker can tell you exactly what went into the piece.
Often yes. Many makers here take custom requests because they work piece by piece. Reach out through the storefront to ask about a custom design, color, or size.
Toys here are one-of-one or small-batch. One-of-one pieces do not restock; for small-batch designs, a repeat may differ slightly because each is made by hand.
Apply for a storefront and a real person reviews it, usually within 72 hours. Your work needs to be genuinely handmade by you; SCRAPD does not allow resold factory toys.
Play and Pretend on SCRAPD is handmade toys and imaginative play - soft plushies, dolls, puppets, felt creatures, dress-up costumes, and educational toys, each made by the maker selling them. These are the things that get loved hard and kept for years, made by hand by a real person rather than stamped out by the thousand on a factory line.
Each piece is one-of-one or small-batch handmade. Because a plushie, a doll, or a puppet is sewn, stuffed, and finished by hand, every one has its own character - the face, the seams, the small choices vary each time. A handmade toy is made for a child or a collector, not for a warehouse shelf.
Because SCRAPD hand-reviews every storefront before it can sell, this category is genuinely handmade - no factory toys resold as craft, no dropshipped stock. You can ask the maker about materials, age suitability, and care before you buy.
