Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

I got 95% and 82%; now if they were teddy bear faces I would have scored 100%, I'm sure!! Thanks for the fun. 

I think we are always very hard on ourselves. Me especially, when it comes to my art and "putting myself out there." You are very brave to do that and I encourage you to go for it! Note my little quote below     Vicki

Thanks for another smile added to this day. Wonderful work! Vicki :clap:

I wish I could just HUG him! Lovely! Vicki

I am in awe, for the patience it takes to create such an incredible piece. Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks for the suggestion, Peta. I will list my bears under the "Dolls" category in Etsy from now on. I seriously thought about starting another eBay store, just because sales were so slow on Etsy, however, now I will reinvest my efforts towards the other sites.

I did the Macarena with your Mom because I think I need some serious help!!! 

THIS IS FUNNY!!       

I'll definitely list on B4B and Teddy Patch. I am currently listing on Etsy, but I find they aren't really bear friendly... as they have no category for artist bears. I like hanging out with you guys and I'm excited  ! Vicki

Hi everyone;

This is a "pet" subject of mine, too. Finding a place other than eBay to sell my bears. I had an eBay store for a while and did quite well, but the higher fees and lower traffic forced me out. I listed two for auction recently, no luck. I'm not a huge seller, either. I make bears because I love them and can't stop creating. Anyway, I'm here to find out what other people are doing and trying to get new ideas and share my own. 

Oh, one more thing..... that was my FIRST post; although I've been lurking in the background for a few months. Glad to meet all of you 

Hi all!

I was very interested to read through this post. I listed on eBay (I had a storefront) for about 9 months and did really well; until they started making all the fee changes, etc. I then went over to Etsy. Not many sales, but I think that is because I need to "advertise"; so I'm working on that. I checked out bid4bears; I'll go over to the teddypatch also. It's great to be part of a teddy bear community!
