Handmade with Heart, One Furby at a Time
Long Furby began as a personal obsession — a deep love for the iconic Furby toy reimagined in elongated, plush form. What started as a hobby project in 2019 quickly grew into something much bigger when photos of the first handmade pieces went viral in crafting communities. The response was overwhelming: people wanted their own.
Every Long Furby starts with premium faux fur carefully selected for texture, pile height, and color. We hand-cut every pattern piece, hand-sew every seam, and hand-place every detail — from the eyes to the tiny feathered ears. No two pieces are ever identical. Each one carries the personality of the moment it was made.
We opened our Etsy shop in 2022 and have since fulfilled orders for customers across the United States, Europe, and beyond. Our buyers range from nostalgic adults who grew up with the original toy to new collectors who discovered Long Furby through social media. Whatever brings you here, we are glad you found us.
Our studio is based in Santa Barbara, California. We keep our production small intentionally — we would rather make ten perfect Long Furbies than a hundred rushed ones. Every order gets our full attention, and we stay in close contact with customers throughout the process so that the finished piece is exactly what you imagined.
