Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Have you tried a reflector?

You sometimes see professional photographers with silver or gold-lined umbrellas - they point the light into the umbrella which is positioned usually above and to one side of the subject.  They sometimes have an assistant standing holding a gold reflector at weddings.  Gold gives a softer colour, but you could try experimenting with silver cooking foil

You could try:

Just tile your design on the computer, then print a sheet and cut out.

They do washable and non-washable fabrics to print on.

Check the Hugglets directory to see f there are any coming up in your area.  It'll save you the postage, but might induce you to spend on stuff you didn't know you needed!

I had a flu jab a couple of weeks ago, my arm was sore and had a large red area around the injection site.  Following day all my joints ached and I felt about 90 (actually just turned 50).  All effects wore off after a couple of days.

I tried the single eyelid once (ultasuede) to get a wink.  The poor bear just looked lecherous!

If it's very fine, you might need to protect yourself.

I used one once where I coughed so much I had to wear a decorators face mask from the DIY shop so that I didn't breath in the fibres.  The faux fur looked great and felt wonderfully soft when made up, but was also a health hazard!

Don't forget that all the bears will be excited too and will be trying to choose a new family. 

If you do the rounds first, but don't spend, and then go round again to look again at the bears that were calling to you, you may find that a bear will have already sold.  Don't worry, it just wasn't meant to be, and the bear has chosen someone else.

Enjoy Hugglets, I always do, but haven't been for a while now,

Cheers,
