Kevin the Carrot superfan decorates Christmas tree with over 50 of the soft toys
- 5 months ago
A Kevin the Carrot superfan has decorated her seven foot high Christmas tree with more than 50 of the soft toys.
Chevie Wells, 34, first started collecting the popular stuffed toys, which are sold at Aldi, when they were first released in 2016.
The mum-of-three now has 52 of the stuffed carrots - including several 'Kevin's' and his girlfriend 'Katie' - and she has decorated her Christmas tree with them.
Chevie said: "My mum used to work for Aldi and it started when the Kevin's first came out as she would buy them for the kids.
"As the years have gone on, we just go and buy them.
"We don't always buy the full collection, we only got the full one this year because it was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory themed.
"We normally get the Kevin and the Katie and the tree decorations, and then it's built over the years.
"My partner's mum wasn't using her Christmas tree this year, so we thought we would put the Kevin' on it."
Chevie's mum first started buying the stuffed carrots for Chevie's three children Kajetan, 14, Malakaj, 11, and Zikajzer, five as they 'really liked him.'
Even though she has been gifted some of the teddies by family, Chevie still thinks she has spent around £160 on them over the years.
Chevie, of Derby, Derbyshire,. said: "The kids liked him when he was younger.
"It's also for a good cause because I think they donate a certain amount to the Teenage Cancer Trust.
"He's popular and I've got three children so they really like Kevin and he's part of their Christmas.
"I've had lots of good feedback from people, all of my family love the tree and just think it's really cool."
Chevie, who is engaged to partner Andrew Warden, 40, has five Christmas trees in her house - including a Grinch themed tree and a Disney inspired one.
She has a range of decorations including Disney baubles, cushions, snow globes and Santa sacks - and estimates she's spent over £1,000 on the festive merchandise.
Chevie, who works at DIY store Wickes, said: "We've been collecting the decorations for the same tree for the last ten years.
"Every year, we would buy a pack of six baubles, then the glass one they bring out every year with the date on it and then a personalised one for the kids.
"Now it's got to the stage where it's just full of Disney baubles and ornaments.
"I'm a massive Disney fan, we took the kids to Disneyland in Paris just before Covid and loved it."
