Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Thank you both for your help.  I've read some people have their local trading standards say yes and others say no.  I've sent an email to my local trading standards explaining what I'm hoping to do, so fingers crossed!

Hi all,
I've only recently started making bears, but I wanted to ask a quick question for those making and selling bears in the EU, specifically the UK.
After researching, it appears that anything sold that looks like a child would want to pick it up and play with it, which I think it is safe to say that teddy bears do, needs to have a CE mark to show that it has passed various safety tests.  Apparently just saying 'not suitable for children' is not enough.  I was wondering how you went about this, especially with one-off bears.  Or if there are any loop holes It seems such a shame to have to make an additional bear to pull at, put in a washing machine, and set fire to!  Especially considering the cost of mohair, and the time that goes into making them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you everyone! :)
I agree, faux fur is great for many things, especially when needed to be soft and cuddly.

This is Clarence, he's made with a rather sparse mohair.  He has cotter pin joints and stands six inches tall.
This is my first mohair bear, after making a couple with faux fur, I definitely prefer the mohair.  I've been sewing and making various things for years, but I've found making bears is so much fun!
Clarence was a gift for my partner, she named him, and I hope to make many more!
