Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Shelly  he is stunning!!!!! :clap:  :clap:  :clap:  :clap: 

Never thought if that Katy. I will tell her that.

Kelly she did try the rubber band method, but found it would slip off the face and wrap around the fur. She is using mink. It does seam like the rubber band way.

Michelle I showed her how to do it with the tape and that is what she is doing now, but wanted to know how to do the cup method. She is just learning how to make bears and of course she loves the way the mink bears face goes with the puffy cheeks.

Does any one know how to use the paper cup method to trim bear faces? I have heard of it but don"t know how it works. My sister inlaw wants to try it but I don't know how as I have never tried it.

Hi Jenn, Blog give are aways fun. Do you make bears? I am going to pop on over to have a look.

I can't wait to meet all of you. Going and seeing how it all goes will be good for me as I have not done a bear show yet. For years my husband and I did craft shows. He did the wood working and I did painting and sewing and finishing of stuff. I will bring my camera as well. I did a craft show last fall with my husband as he does wood turning and making pens and all sorts of stuff.....I did me in I have to say. But it was fun to do and meet the buyers.

Thanks everyone. I won't be selling bears but going as a collector. Who knows maybe in the future I will,but going to check it out and have fun and hpe to bring home a furry friend!   Who all is going to attend the show?

I am so excited that I am going to the Philadelphia bear show in May!! :dance:  :dance:  :dance:  :dance: I have been to the Toronto one but not like this one and I get to meet the other TT artist. I got my bags packed and ready to go!!! :)

Can any one tell me about this bear.....who might of made it ect. It has like a rubber snout and rolly eyes. Thanks

Jane that you for posting the pictures of the show. From one part of the world to all. Wonderful bears!!!!!!! :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Nichole sugar is sooooooooooooooo cute!!!!    

Andrea it is now on the tree. Geraldine maybe Therese can find something out for you.

An other ornament made it to the tree!

Joanne they are awsome!!!!!                                 Some day I am going to own one!

Tami I do and I use the black nose wax.

Andrea, Jane, hang in there.  :hug: Sometimes things happen and ornamnets get delayed. But the good news is that it is on it's way and as soon as you get it post a picture and I will add it to the tree.

I hope it is in the mail for you.

Is there any way to find out who had your names and talk to them to make sure they had the right address and when they sent the ornaments? Maybe they can help shed some light on the issue.

How many of you that did the ornament exchange still waiting for you ornament to arrive?
