Anyone know what's happening with these?   The website says "all classes being retired - new ones in September" but that was supposed to be in 2012.  Site does not appear to have been updated  bear_ermm

I love Teddys Bits http://teddysbits.com.au/.  I have also shopped at Bear Essence http://www.bearessence.com.au/a/Home__B … g_Supplies and occasionally at Beary Cheap http://www.bearycheap.com/.  I find Valma at Teddys Bits extremely helpful.  Josey and Kim at Bear Essence have lots of great products although their website could be a little better for those of us who have no choice but to shop online.

I like Youri - he looks like he's just had a smackeral of something nice and is very full and happy.  bear_wub

Fairybear

WOW I love them all!  Especially Jeremie  :love:
What beautiful workmanship has gone into these bears.  I am sure they will have a very happy home with you.

Fairybear

Thankyou all for offering your advice and thoughts bear_original .  You have made me feel much better.  I guess it is something that both my husband and I need to work on and Im sure we'll come to some agreement.  Maybe I could get him a great big teddy bear just for his own!  bear_grin

I never made them to sell them, they are not my design, only patterns I have made from other peoples work.  But that was never my desire, to sell them anyway.

What matters more to your husband: a happy and relaxed spouse with one cluttered room or a nervous and unhappy spouse with a perfectly neat room?

If I could make him understand that, all would be ok.  I suffer from depression anyway so I would have thought that anything that makes me calm and happy would be a good thing.  He's a good person, he's just a "man's man" who likes cars, football, stuff like that.  He would never ever love bears he's just not that kind of person.  My mother in law, whilst again a good person, does not see the benefit or attachment I have.  Like when my dog got run over and I was sad, she said "it's just a dog".  Don't get me wrong, she's a lovely person but she is very practical and I guess I am very emotional.  Maybe I can make my husband understand what they mean to me, I just don't quite know how to go about it.

My husband and my mother in law are always at me to sell some of my bears as I have "too many".  I don't wish to sell my bears for various reasons, I become attached to them, I don't feel comfortable in selling them as I don't think they are good enough etc.  I make bears because it is the ultimate stress relief, it makes me calm and happy and relaxed.  Yes, it is quite cluttered in the room where they are but it isn't the main living room.  I love moving them around and "playing" with them.  How can I make them understand that it's not something I want to do and get them off my back about it?  bear_angry

Fairybear

WOW I really love these, especially the rocking horse!  Great job  bear_wub  that rabbit too!

Fairybear

First thing that came to my mind  bear_grin

There's a song by They Might be Giants, called Somebody keeps moving my Chair that sings about Mr Horrible!  He can have his own song!  bear_grin

Fairybear
