About

Hello! Thanks so much for taking the time to visit our store! PeanutButterPigs is run by primarily myself (peanut) and occasionally a few helping hands. We aim to create products that are not only adorable but have a special spark of fun that will make you smile! 

PeanutButterPigs?

Many people ask the meaning behind our name PeanutButterPigs and it is a silly story! Throughout my time in school I was often referred to as "Peanut" because of my height. When I created my first art account on instagram I decided to use the name "Peanut & Pigs" as It was about me and my guinea pigs! A few years later I decided on "PeanutButterPigs" as a placeholder title as I considered only making food themed plushies but even after deciding what to do with my buisness the name stuck and now I have the silliest name!

History

All businesses start somewhere! I grew up seeing my mothers artwork all my life and always felt inspired by her creativity. I drew whenever I could and when I turned 13 I began making small armature plushies that I would sell to friends or family. Around that time I also aquired my first drawing tablet and began exploring digital art. In June of 2020 I decided to start an Esty shop with hand sewn plushies and in November of that same year I started the website you are on right now! Since then we have strived to create a variety of cute and fun products for the whole family to enjoy!

Goals

One of our main goals going forward is to be able to be in retail stores! But we have lots of other things that we would love to achieve such as making a webcomic and starting a non-profit guinea pig rescue! We would love it if you would tag along and root for us as we try to achieve these goals!
