Hi
I've attached some pics of the four most recent bears I have made (I've made 6 or 7 in total). I would like to start selling my bears; well actually I don't really want to part with any of them at all because I love them soo much but I need to fund my addiction and my partner is not a fan of what he calls 'dust collecting soft toys'.
I would really appreciate some honest feedback as to if people think they are sellable as I don't want to try and sell them and look a fool because I have seen some of the amazing creations on here and on other websites and I fear people may buy one of mine and be frightfully disappointed when it arrives.
Wow, they're absolutely gorgeous!!!! I love the first one with the clown ruffle the best. But then again, the second one has such a sweet look on his face! Hmm... the third one though, his expression is tooooo cute! Love the little scarf. And his cute nose!! And of course, now that I think about it, your fourth one is so sweet with the tiara! All hard to resist!!
They are all very cute! But my favorite would be #3.
Your bears are all very charming. They look professional. Their bodies and limbs are straight, their faces are even and the fur lays in the correct directions. I would say go for it. Who knows what collector will see them and fall in love??? Good luck!
Though I'm not a collector(yet), I'd definitely say that they avre loveable ad sellable. No.1+ 3 won my heart! Congrats on Your great work!

Karen, you have serious talent as a bearmaker! Your creations are well-made and have nice, appealing "bearsonalities". So, I'd say go for it and good luck!
Thank you everyone for your feedback. I think I shall have a go at selling them :-)
I've seen in the library there is a section on selling so am going for a read now.
