What is it about a comforting hug from a Teddy bear? French researchers found that the emotional bond one shares with their own teddy bear elicits a strong perception of comfort. For their <\/span>study<\/span><\/a>, they looked at participants\u2019 experience with their own Teddy bears vs strange bears\u2019 physical and sensory characteristics to determine if they make a bear more comforting. Unsurprisingly, participants preferred their own bears over a \u201cstranger bear.\u201d The results of their 2022 study were independent of participants\u2019 age, meaning plushies can provide comfort at all stages of life.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n That explains the connection we feel with our plush toys\u2014even as adults. But what about what to do with our <\/span>collections of stuffed toys<\/span><\/a>? We can help. Keep reading for creative plush display ideas to keep them organized and keep the nostalgic feelings flowing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Stuffed animals, stuffies, plush toys, plushies. Whatever you call them, they seem to multiply. The truth is, it\u2019s actually easier to display these items than store them. Displaying plushies helps to reduce clutter and protect them long-term. There are myriad ways to display plushies\u2014from <\/span>boxes<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>bins<\/span><\/a> and bags to <\/span>shelves<\/span><\/a> and other vertical space-saving solutions. And with adults and teenagers holding onto their treasured <\/span>stuffed animals<\/span><\/a> for sentimental value, it makes sense to consider a variety of plush display ideas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Make sure every last one of your plushies is on display by using <\/span>acrylic risers<\/span><\/a>. Items placed on that second (or third row) are elevated for better visibility. This works particularly well with a grouping of smaller stuffies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n For larger plush toys, and for ones that are frequently played with, consider a <\/span>wooden crate.<\/span><\/a> It doesn\u2019t get any simpler than this. It\u2019s perfect for shared spaces in your home, like the family room, as well as a child\u2019s play area. It\u2019s easy to quickly pick up and dump the plush toys in the crate when it\u2019s naptime or bedtime or when company is on its way. You can even add casters to easily roll out of the way when necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n Whether it\u2019s a Squishmallow or a Steiff, collectors want to keep their investments safe while on display. Showcase and protect rare plushie collectibles in an acrylic display box or case, such as an\u00a0<\/span>acrylic display box 6″H x 9″W x 9″L with white base<\/span><\/a> or an <\/span>Acrylic Display Box With Black Base for American Girl Doll (<\/span><\/a>which will comfortably fit a cuddly bear as well).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Use built-ins and bookshelves to get stuffed animals off of the floor. Line them up on shelves using risers if necessary. You can also use <\/span>cubby display boxes<\/span><\/a> to store an assortment of plush. If your child is older but she doesn\u2019t want to part with her plushies yet, install a high shelf around the perimeter of her room to display her fave childhood friends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0If baskets and bins on the floor take up too much space, mount them on the wall as pockets for plushies. They\u2019ll do double duty as wall d\u00e9cor.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Keep a collection safe from dust, UV rays, pets, and even from taking a tumble off of a shelf by using a <\/span>display cabinet<\/span><\/a>. Lighted cabinets, such as our\u00a0 <\/span>4′ Wide Wooden Lighted Floor Standing Display Case with Sliding Doors and Mirrored Back<\/span><\/a>\u00a0or <\/span>Hex Shaped Showcase Tower With Lighting and Shelves<\/span><\/a>, are also a smart option. You can arrange your collection by height, type, and color, and even intersperse other toys and books to flesh out the collection.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n An <\/span>Exhibit Case<\/span><\/a> or <\/span>Wall Mounted Display Case<\/span><\/a> can keep a treasured childhood friend safe from dust and other dangers. Consider placing other memorabilia inside to create a memory box.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Organizing your plushies not only keeps them neat, but it keeps them safe and clean.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Take a cue from toy retailers to curb clutter from plush toys.
