Tina and I were at Target when she spotted a whole display of Peeps merchandise. Can't find any reference to them online, but there they were in all their peepy glory. Peeps pens, pencils, purses. The best were little super soft Peeps bean bags. I wanted to fill a pit with them and jump in.
In college we used to roast Peeps over a fire--similar to roasting marshmallows. The sugar would get all carmelized and blackened and then the flames would actually change colors. We used to call them Flaming Screamers...cause if they're Peeps when they're not in the fire you can only imagine the noise they make when they are =).

Sounds like the plush peeps maybe rare and collectible.
Linens-N-Things has Bunny Peep shaped skwishy pillows. It's making me think I might be able to make felt Peeps.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely going to have to check those beanbags out. They sound cute!

I bought my brother peeps lights for his dorm room at Target an Easter or two ago- super cute little bunny shaped, glittery lights!
ReplyDeleteI just saw those pillows and Peeps bean bags in Linens-n-Things in Las Vegas. They didn't have a yellow beanbag though. I am very relieved that other stores have them, I will have to start looking in NY!

ReplyDeleteI like the Peeps bunny necklace that I've seen on Paris Hilton before. I remember going to the designer's website and almost ordering one, but for the life of me I can't find it on google. Woe! It was either pink or lavender, and shaped kind of like those squishy pillows. Super cute!
