Memory Bears

Bears  are handmade using treasured clothing from a loved one to keep as a reminder of happy memories. Your bear will be lovingly made by me and I will ensure the clothes you send are looked after and treated with care.  

Bears are £45 each.  

Take a look at some of my work in the Bear Gallery - it might help give you some ideas for your bear.   New bears joining all the time, so keep checking in!

What materials work best?

I can make a bear using 2 -3 adult pieces of clothing, but they can be made using more - it's up to you!  

For this bear  I used 1 x flat cap,
1 x pyjama top, 1 x jumper,  1 x sun hat
and because Lauren's grandad always
loved a wool handknitted jumper,
I made him one to go over the top.
Most fabrics are fine to use but please avoid very light fabrics like silk and chiffon, and heavy fabrics like leather or anything with a very open weave.  Chunky knitted wool jumpers don’t really work but I can make a jumper that goes over the top.  It's always best to send a photo so I can check the fabrics will work.  You can also include a design detail but please discuss these with me.  

All bears go home with a red love heart sewn onto the chest.

Bears can be handwashed with lots of care. 

The bears sitting height is appox 12 inches. 

Currently 3-4 weeks turnaround time. 






IMPORTANT:  As each bear is made from different fabrics they are not CE tested and not toys to be played with.
