Dogs are the most wonderful creatures on earth (apart from bears of course)! Good luck with your little one I'm sure she will be spoilt rotton and get away with murder with one look from her gorgeous eyes

Hi Peter

Thank you for your kind welcome back.

I have been sooo busy making bears (I think I must have 23 to take to the show) that I completely forgot about taking photos! Some of the bears are on my website, however the camera I used for the photos was not great so the bears look much better in the fur!

I have all sorts of shapes and sizes this year from minis to a couple of large bears - hopefully there will be something to please everyone 

Look forward to speaking with you all very soon, and maybe even seeing a few of you tomorrow

Thanks Becky - bikes and bears - heaven!  :crackup:

Maybe if we win the lottery Lenora, we can happily drink wine, eat biscuits and make bears all day 

Oh what a shame.  I am putting some nice sweets on my stall so at least that might encourage people to 'come closer'!

We are all hoping that the economy will pick up soon, I hadn't even thought about swine flu and the effects it may have on others approaching and cuddling bears and I will be sending my good luck wishes for success your way 

Hi Sheryl

I wouldn't lose heart, I think eBay is generally quite slow at the moment from a selling perspective.

Have you considered making enough bears for a local show?  This is a great way to exhibit your work, make contacts and hopefully sell lots of bears!  Although if you anything like me I end up spending more than I make!!

I used to sell my bears on eBay, however have not put much at all on there for quite a few months as I am attending a show instead - people can really see the quality of the bears and pick them up for a cuddle.

Good luck anyway, your bears are beautiful  :clap:

Thank you so much Tammy that is really sweet of you.

I have just been admiring your bears on the website - they are absolutely gorgeous

Hi Everyone

I joined this fantastic forum a while ago, however have been so busy with bear making, life, and especially work etc that I haven't communicated with you all for what seems like ages and ages -so just wanted to let you all know that I have missed you all and I am still alive!!  :dance:

I have been really, really busy lately bear making as I am exhibiting at the National Motorcyle Museum in Birmingham this coming Sunday, hence no eBay selling activities for Boogaloo Bears and last night I completed the final bear for the show. So I am all ready to spend a lovely day with other bear makers and their wonderful creations.

Now life has calmed down and I am a little less manic I have time to spend with you all on Teddy Talk - so, how is everyone and is anyone on the site also exhibiting on Sunday?

Lots of love and hugs

Lisa

Thank you all very much for your kind comments, i hope he finds a nice new home  :dance:

Thank you very much ladies x

Hi everyone

It has been a while since my last eBay bear submission as I have been busy with a couple of orders and our 8 month old labrador puppy hasn't been well. The vets thought initially that she had an intestinal blockage, however it turned out to be severe gastroenteritis.
Unfortunately the vets had to operate and open her up (just in case), so I have been busy looking after her and you know what dogs are like....the moment i even thought about bear making.....puppy wants attention!!

Anyway, I am pleased to have finally completed Oscar, he is a large, faux fur bear and is looking forward to the summer with his little red basebal cap and sunglasses. Hopefully he will prove a good omen and summer will start to come our way.

As always, any feedback is gratefully received and as I have not had a chance to comment yet on the gorgeous bears shown on TT  I would love to say a huge congratulation to everyone on such amazing creations.

I think he looks very striking and handsome indeed. I haven't been brave enough yet to experiment with vibrant colours, however after seeing your fabulous bear I think I will be less conservative in the future!  :clap:
