Father's Day - June 16th

It's Father's Day on the 16th June.  Why not buy something a little different so that when your Dad unwraps his gift it turns out to be something unexpected and quirky!  That's where our Sock Buddies come in.  Great little cuddly (and manly!) monsters are available at Dawanda.  They make great accessories and companions for your Dad's home or car! 

Check out our hot picks for Father's Day.  Meet Bentley.  Bentley likes theme parks, being naughty and being tickled.  His favourite colour is green and his favourite word is "dweeb".  Bentley likes to eat nothing but marmalade and is afraid of garden gnomes.
Introducing Walden.  Walden loves adventure, thrill seeking and puzzle solving and longs to be like his idol Indiana Jones!  Walden is often getting into trouble and has difficulty paying attention. Walden's favourite word is "nugget" and his favourite colour is orange.
Finally check out Walter.  Walter likes chocolate brownies, is addicted to cereal and dislikes sushi. He loves to build sandcastles, dislikes the word “moist” and has a phobia of octopus.
Why not go a step further and personalise your buddy.  Just give us your Dad's name and a few of his personal details, likes/dislikes etc and we can create a personalised bio tag for your buddy FREE of charge.  Be sure to order your buddy soon.  Postage takes 1-2 days in the UK and 2-5 to Europe - be sure your buddy arrives for Father's Day!

Bovey Tracey Buddies

Here at eckel and noo we are very excited to have been invited to stock some of our sock buddies at the new Porters of Station Road Art and Craft shop in Bovey Tracey. 
It can be tough and sometimes disheartening trying to compete with mass produced cheap toys/collectibles.  Not everyone appreciates the time and effort it takes to create something, or are unwilling to pay slightly more for them, so it's great to find a store that specialises in locally hand made crafts. 
We dropped off our buddies today in time for Porter's opening day this May Bank Holiday.   For all you locals you should go and pay a visit - well worth taking a look!  Alternatively go visit their Facebook Page for more info.
happy shopping.......

Valentine Love Buddies

It's that time of year again, Valentine's Day is rolling around.  We've been busy working away on creating a new collection of Valentine Love Buddies.  So why not give your loved one something a little different this year....a cuddly and cute little love buddy. 
 
Meet Chloe.  Chloe is a bookworm and loves the smell of the books in the library.  She also likes bubble baths, Krispy Kreme donuts, reality TV and breakfast is her favourite meal of the day.
 
Introducing Barclay.  Barclay is a superstitious little buddy who likes to pop bubblewrap, loves the sound of rain and enjoys playing poker.  His favourite colour is blue and he is afraid of lemons. 
Or how about a little valentine mini monster?  Great travel companion, key or bag charm.
Say hello to Dale.  Dale is a socially awkward little alien. He likes to read comic books, collect blue smarties and is afraid of cheese.
Check out all our Valentine Love Buddies at Dawanda
