'''Plushie Gift Shop''' is a plushie retail chain of [[Juravista]] origin. The chain was created by plushie expert Blockysumo in 2025 and operates shops in several cities around The Shire. Each shop offers custom plushies designed to match the themes of its city, while still functioning as a souvenir shop.

Some shops also feature Plushie Lab, an experience inspired by chocolate-making courses in chocolate museums.

== Branches ==
Plushie Gift Shop has opened seventeen shops in various cities, towns, and builds: [[Juravista]], [[Cherrymont]], [[Found|Found City]], [[Terumbu Nagaram]], [[Gravont]], [[Zhaozhou Valley]], [[Oranjestad]], [[Calisidia]], [[Squidonia]] (two shops), [[Beauregard]], [[Johannesville]], [[Fox Valley]], the [[Archives of Time]] museum, [[Zenophalia]], [[Kibarra]], and [[Festive Village]] (seasonal). All shop openings are announced through The Shire Discord.

Each of the Plushie Gift Shops in Gravont, Calisidia, Beauregard, and Kibarra, as well as the Squidonia Underwater shop, also include a Plushie Lab, a make-your-own-plushie lab for curious customers. The idea of Plushie Lab comes from chocolate museums, which usually provide short courses for customers wanting to make their own chocolate bars. Customers can sign up for Plushie Lab by contacting Blockysumo through sending '/mail' in-game, or through Discord DMs, findable on The Shire Discord. All Plushie Lab locations are equipped with a plushie-making tutorial book and accompanied with "The Lab" signs on or near their entrances.

Plushie Gift Shop [[Juravista]] is the chain's first shop, with its address on Nebber's Street. It is opened on July 30th, 2025. Its design is inspired by an open-style souvenir shop in Palanga, Lithuania. This shop features a full living room on the second floor, accessible from under the shelves, as well as two basements filled with custom plushies. To attract customers, three or four custom plushies of a person are added to the shop when they are personally invited to visit. One of the plushie heads was made from the head of an unidentified person who was described as being too nosy on the source of the plushies. The person was subsequently killed in-game and the player's head was made into a plushie theme.
