How To Make A Kawaii Octopus Plushie Tutorial

Hello there everyone! Today we celebrate OCTO BABIES! Or at least in my case they are called that. Thanks to my awesomeness, I forgot to give this poor plush its extra legs to swim. So this week in plushie making, we are going to make this really cute kawaii octopus plushie. I was inspired by a picture I looked up on Google and fell in love.
I hope you guys liked the way I made this cute octopus plush. I am also thinking of having a giveaway for the glue I use in my tutorial since a ton of you can't get them in your country. I will have to do more research to see if this is able to reach you without getting confiscated at customs. Your other option is to sew as mentioned in the video, use craft glue that dries clear or a hot glue gun. Whichever way that works best for you.
Ok so that is all for pictures and text! Enjoy the video and don't forget to pick up the template on your way out. Enjoy and I wish on each and everyone of you a wonderful happy week!

    1. Hiya there! yes it is :) But you can customize the template according to the size you want by blowing it up or minimizing it. It will work perfectly either way :D

  18. Hi! Your octopus is really adorable <3 I'm making one for a sewing class as NY final project :3 And I suddenly realized, that this might not be sewn on a machine! So I was wondering. Is this adorable little thing handsewn? Or machine-sewn?
    And are most of your things handsewn? Because their all really adorable and I'd love to try them!
