I’m so happy to do this DIY Shopkins Toy collab with two of my favourite Youtubers, SofiaStyled and Makoccino! I decided to create a sock plush inspired by D’Lish Donut. The donut itself was really easy to make, thanks to a brilliant method from IdunnGoddess (video linked below). I think it looks even cuter than the official Shopkins Donut plush :3. Of course, if you’re NOT a Shopkins fan, then you can easily adapt this DIY using other sock colours and simply make your own kawaii donut toy!

The hardest part of this DIY was definitely making the eyes out of clay. It required a very steady hand to get the paint in the right areas. So if you find it a bit too tricky, then you can simplify the eye design (leave out the outer black ring) or print the eyes out on paper/card and stick them on.
Please note, not all of my DIY videos are ASMR because many crafting techniques do no produce any sound. This includes sewing, clay or painting videos. That’s why those DIYs always have music in the background because otherwise they will be almost completely silent.

Hope you enjoyed this DIY Shopkins toy tutorial! This was my first time making a DIY on Shopkins toys and it was fun going away from kawaii and getting inspiration from kids toys / children’s toys. I was amazed at how many kids toy channels, Shopkins channels and Shopkins toy unboxing videos there were on Youtube!! So if you know a Shopkins fan, then I think they will love this DIY donut plushie.
