Not long time ago I have found my husbands’ old cigarette box collection. The boxes are old , rusty and fits to my bears very well. I’ve got inspiration for my mini bears collection
I present the third from my mini bears collection – Mr. Blue Ed Laurens – almost 5″ bear, made from special bear material – mohair, has got German glass eyes, 5 joints (double for the head), embroidered and waxed nose, shaded with oil paint, stuffed with fiberfill. On the neck Mr. Blue has silk bow aged with coffee and rusty bell.
He is so cute. So much character.. Love the first photo...looks like he is posing.
Actually he does Thanks, Anna
He's very cute and I love the old, rusty boxes! Perfect!
Hugs,
Janice
Awww...sweet! Did you dye the mohair yourself?
Becky
He is wonderful! I love his sweet smile!
Thanks Janice, Becky and Melisa
Becky, I didn't dye mohair, it's blue pile with brown base. I simply shaded it with oil paint as finishing touch I have made once a bigger bear from this mohair (Valery)
Aww, he's so sweet
Thank you , Katy

Many thanks Majon, Joanne and Dagmara Sometimes it's really strange how you get an inspiration to make bears..it can be an old rusty tin..
I just adore this little bear, wonderful colour and I love his rustic charm Hugs Lynne x
Thanks, Lynne
