Step into softness with Luxe Cuddle® Teddy-our most indulgent Luxe Cuddle® yet. With a rich 40mm pile and a weighty, ultra-plush feel, Teddy is reminiscent of our beloved Luxury Shag Faux Fur, but even softer and more effortless to work with. This Luxe Cuddle® Dreamy style features subtle tipping that mimics the natural look of animal fur, adding depth and a touch of wild charm to its flowing texture. Paired with a diverse color palette, it's ideal for elevated projects ranging from cozy blankets and statement pillows to fun stuffed animals and cosplay pieces. Washable, touchable, and unforgettable-Luxe Cuddle® Teddy brings imagination to life in the most beautiful way.

Share our images and videos across Instagram, Facebook, Threads, TikTok, and Pinterest. Pair them with trending sounds or seasonal hashtags (think #nurseryinspo, #cozyspaces, or #holidayhandmade) to extend your reach. Write captions that encourage interaction (saves, shares, and comments), and be sure to tag @shannonfabrics for a chance to be featured.
Short-form video continues to dominate in 2025. Try turning your favorite project shots into Reels, TikToks, or Shorts by mixing in fabric close-ups, behind-the-scenes clips, or quick tutorials.
Instagram Reels: Since early 2025, Reels can run up to 3 minutes, but shorter clips (15–30 seconds) usually earn higher completion rates and are prioritized in the algorithm.
TikTok: While the platform now supports up to 15 minutes, the sweet spot for performance is still 30–45 seconds.
Always add captions to maximize accessibility and reach.
Position your shop as the go-to source for Cuddle® fabric inspiration. Upload tutorials, unboxings, or seasonal lookbooks, and make your videos easy to find with searchable keywords like “DIY Cuddle baby quilt” or “Cuddle fabric fall sewing projects”.
Embed images and videos right onto your homepage, product listings, or blog posts to inspire customers and help them visualize projects with the exact fabrics you stock.
Bring your emails to life by featuring seasonal project highlights, announcing new Cuddle® arrivals, or linking to blog posts packed with inspiration. Don’t forget: GIFs and stills work just as well as full video if you want something lightweight.
Turn longer content into bite-sized Instagram or Facebook Stories with polls, stickers, or links (if your account has the feature enabled). Save your best Stories to a Cuddle® highlight reel for ongoing inspiration that customers can revisit.
