Celestial Buddies is an original line of plush characters each personifying a celestial body occupying our heavens. The Celestial Buddies' "Big Bang" moment occurred after the creator of this miniature stuffed universe saw a documentary series on the Solar System and realized that there were no plush toys depicted our planetary neighbors. So she set to work, and Celestial Buddies is the result.
Have you ever noticed that there is so much variation among the planets and that each has its own unique characteristics, identity and personality? We have designed each Celestial Buddy to stay true to these unique variations through careful selection of fabrics and decisions regarding size, shape and features to create an artistic interpretation of each celestial body. Each character comes with a tag showing the actual object it personifies, along with some vital statistics and fun facts to give the Buddy educational value. So is your ideal Buddy energetic, playful with a sunny disposition, like our Sun? Cool and calm with a zest for life, like Earth? Feisty and friendly, like Mars? Or a loyal companion, like the Moon? Or why not collect them all? . |
The Creator

My name is Jessie and I am the creator of Celestial Buddies, an original line of plush characters. I currently live and work in New York City in the fashion industry as an apparel designer for a large company that manufactures luxury goods spanning bags, shoes, jewelry and clothing. This project originated in my free time from the desire to create something that was entirely mine but that utilized the same skills I have honed in my career.
The Celestial Buddies’ “Big Bang” moment occurred after watching a series of documentaries on the Solar System. The Universe is fascinating in its staggering immensity, ruled by complex laws of physics, complicated theories and bewildering phenomena, most of which we take for granted. The creation of the Buddies is to make these extraordinary celestial bodies more accessible, more down to Earth, so to speak. I believe there is a niche for my Solar System stuffed sidekicks. Most Solar System toys focus on the scientific and are mainly mobiles and models geared towards older kids who are science buffs. Celestial Buddies are entirely different . . . they are cute, cuddly, personable, but also educational, traits which I hope will appeal to a wide audience. So if you are passionate about planets, ecstatic for stars, I encourage you to be the master of your own universe and find your match made in heaven! |
