Oh Paula! Congratualations Hon! We are all so very proud of you! You are so very deserving of this and should be shouting it out to the world! What a beautiful deserving accomplishment! The pictures are wonderful and I only wish I received that magazine so I could read the write up!Awesome!

Many Hugs Louise

Thank you all so much for putting up with my little burst of blowing my own trumpet!!

Now I'm blushing!! 

On a more serious note, magazine coverage is such a great publicist - don't forget to send in pics of your best work to the mags ... it can definitely be worth the effort.  There is so much talent on this forum and I for one,  love to see TT members emblazoned throughout the specialist collector's publications.

Incidentally, of the three monthly magazines currently available in the UK, I have a particular fondness for the Teddy Bear Scene magazine as I think the editor, Kathy Martin, is doing a wonderful job of promoting the teddy bear industry, during what could be construed as a difficult time.  She is achieving a very good balance covering all aspects of the bear world both here in the UK and internationally.

If anyone is interested in ordering a subscription to this UK magazine, please pop along to www.teddybearscene.co.uk

Hi Paula,
     You must be thrilled AND honoured to have the centre pages of such a wonderful magazine.  WELL DONE!!!!  You must celebrate somehow, even if you just buy yourself a nice bottle of wine - you deserve it!  I'll have to try and get to a Chapters soon to look for it.  I did save your post, so will try and enlarge to read it, if I can.  Keep up the great work.
                                                  Hugs,

                                                  Brenda
