TURN YOUR LOVED ONE'S CLOTHING OR OTHER FABRIC ITEM INTO A KEEPSAKE BEAR.

 Bears can be made from nearly any fabric or article of clothing: grandma or aunt's special dress, grandpa or uncle's suit jacket or sweatshirt, mother or sister's favorite blouse or skirt, dad or brother's flannel shirt and jeans, baby's blanket or a child's favorite outfit.

  • You supply one to three articles of clothing that you would like to be fashioned into a special bear.
  • I will design your bear, combining your garments and using decorative features such as buttons, patches, pockets, lace and embroidery whenever possible.
  • Completed bears are generally between 12 and 18 inches tall, depending on design factors and the materials selected.  Let me know if you prefer a large or small bear, but please keep in mind that dimensions will always vary somewhat.  No two bears are ever alike!
  • Arms and legs of the bear will be jointed, allowing it to be freely positioned.  Nose and mouth are hand embroidered.
  • Eyes are carefully chosen for each bear and may vary in color.  Since most bears are made to be keepsake bears, glass eyes are used whenever possible.  NOTE:  Glass eyes should not be used if bears are meant to be played with by small children.  Please request safety eyes if your bear is for a very young child.
  • PRICE  $65 per bear, plus 6.5% MN sales tax (MN residents only), plus shipping, payable at time of order.  (Checks will be held until completion of bear.)
  • NOTE: Online payment option coming soon!
  • DELIVERY  Please add an additional $10 per address (for one to two bears) for packaging and shipping to destinations within the US.
  • Please Note:  Your patience is appreciated.  Each bear is given special attention and may take several weeks to receive.
