🐰 Hoppy Easter from us at the Toy Hospital 🐰.
These two twin bunnies came to the hospital at the same time from two separate owners. They were reunited for a spa appointment just in time for Easter weekend!
We hope you have a relaxed and fun weekend ahead - spring has sprung and the sun is out ☀️

Jack the Monkey was a hugely popular toy produced in the UK during the 1950’s - 1970’s, famously sold exclusively through Woolworths.
The loveable chimp had a stuffed body, rubber face and hands, vibrant outfits and an expressive smile. These monkeys became a nostalgic staple and “constant companion” for many children who grew up in that era, and we see some come through our studio from time to time for a refresh!

Do you remember Jacko the Monkey? 🐵

Hey , thanks for visiting us in Edinburgh! We were so sorry to hear you had broken your arm while on holiday, but glad we could help get you stitched up and back on your travels. What fun it was having a celebrity in the studio!
Visit us again soon Tiny Chef. And look after that arm! 🧑‍🍳

Little monkey Chimpy came to visit us recently looking for a few holes to be fixed up 🐵.
He needed some reinforced stitching under his arms, legs and chin so that he could remain a durable and playful friend. We were able to match the material and crochet some patches to get him back on his feet. He'll be swinging from branches for years yet!

We're sure you've heard of nesting dolls before, but have you heard of nesting teddies? 🐻 🐻
Before the end of last year we had a donation teddy sent in, and when we went to repair him, it turned out he wasn't the original but rather a skin for a very loved vintage teddy. From one bear we have two!
1) Both teddies repaired and looking clean and happy.
2) The original donation teddy sent to us. Who knew there would be another secret teddy inside!
3) Discovery of the inner teddy.
4) Both teddies side by side, ready for adoption.
The siblings have been fixed up and are looking for their forever home. If you would like to adopt, all we ask is that you take them together (we can't 'bear' to separate them!).
To adopt the nesting teddies, head over to https://checkout.square.site/merchant/8DJ031KSNRDW7/checkout/EGVQPJ64EMVBT35BFSE2ZOMK and select 2 Regular Teddies. Indicate at checkout you would like the 2 Nesting Teddies.

Leith Toy Hospital - Bear repairs and more

Do you or your child have a favourite cuddly toy who’s just been loved and cuddled that bit too much? A teddy full of holes, a bear with missing limbs, or someone who’s just lost their smile? Don’t panic! Here at Leith Toy Hospital I’ve seen worse! I can give them a careful operation (under anaesthetic of course), and make sure that they come back to you healthy and strong enough to withstand many more years of love and hugs. We carry out teddy repairs every day ranging from much loved childrens’ toys to antique bear restoration.

I make toys all day every day, so have a very thorough understanding of how they are made. Favourite cuddlies are the centre of a child’s world, and it can very upsetting when they become damaged. I know how important it is that retain the same character and expression, so will make absolutely sure that this is preserved.

TEDDY REPAIRS WE CAN DO:

Surface clean – £10-30

Opening and closing per compartment – £5

Seam repair/ reinforcement – from £4.50

Joint Replacement – £15 per joint

Replacing paw pads -£7.50 per pad

Limb replacement (matching fabrics as closely as possible) – From £25

Patching/ Darning – from £8

Re-embroidering nose & mouth – £12

Replacing safety eyes/ noses £5 per feature

Restuffing – from £5

Making new clothes – From £25

“New skin!” Well, snakes do it, so why not teddies? I can make a new skin in a very similar fabric to exactly the same size and shape as your teddy, and put the original teddy inside the new skin (including the soul, of course.) It’s the same teddy, but with a complete makeover. – from £65

Or in the most drastic of cases where the teddy has been lost, we can recreate it from a photo. From £130
