Paper or Taba?

Okay, so I've been wrestling with a big crafting dilemma lately: should I keep making my beloved paper squishies or finally dive into the world of Taba squishies? It's a tough choice! I've spent so many hours perfecting my paper squishy designs, and there's something so satisfying about bringing a flat drawing to life. For anyone looking to make their own cute paper squishies, the design possibilities are endless! I always start by sketching out my ideas. Think about vibrant colors and adorable characters. I've seen some amazing designs like little FRUIT PIECES or even fun pop culture icons like Woodstock. The key to making them super cute is paying attention to details – big eyes, rosy cheeks, or tiny accessories can make all the difference. Don't be afraid to experiment with different patterns and textures using just markers or colored pencils. Now, about templates – these are a game-changer, especially if you're like me and love to craft on the go! Finding a good iPad paper squishy template or an iPhone paper squishy template can really streamline the process. I often search online for printable outlines that fit my device screens perfectly. You can print them out, trace them onto thicker paper, and then decorate them. Some people even use their iPad or phone screen to trace directly! It's super handy for making things like a Cellphone Case shaped squishy. There are tons of free resources out there, so don't feel like you have to be an artist to get started. Just searching for 'iPad paper squishy template' often brings up a treasure trove of ideas and printable guides. So, back to the big question: paper or Taba? From my experience, paper squishies are fantastic for beginners. They're inexpensive, easy to customize, and you can make so many different shapes and sizes with just paper, tape, and stuffing. Plus, the satisfaction of making something totally unique is huge. On the other hand, Taba squishies (which are typically made from foam or memory foam) offer a different kind of squishiness and durability. They often feel more 'store-bought.' For now, I'm leaning towards continuing my paper squishy journey because I love the creative freedom and the ability to churn out new designs quickly. But who knows, maybe I'll try a Taba version of a RKB (whatever that is!) design in the future! What are your favorite designs to make? Do you have any tips for finding the best cute paper squishies templates? I'd love to hear your thoughts and see what amazing creations you've come up with!
