Les Guenilloux

Les Guenilloux are lovely soft toys made from upcycled textiles, for little ones and bigger ones. Handmade in Montreal since 2015, each Guenillou is unique and designed to accompany children through the different stages of their lives. It was while making a first stuffed toy as a gift for a mother-to-be, with what she had on hand (fabric offcuts and old clothes), that Chantal Huard began to imagine what would become Les Guenilloux.

Over time, the project became a family affair involving her daughter and her partner, and now her son Arnaud, who has created his own collection of playful, colourful characters.
