There have been so many times that I've just thought I'd give up the whole making/selling bears thing because it was too much disappointment when one didn' sell.  Well, today I finally caught up with my friend and gave her my little bear Emmerson.  She cried...then dang it I cried...all is good!!!  She absolutely loves her and that makes me feel sooooooo good about my bears.

Yey,  If my bears don't sell then I know they are meant for someone special and when that person comes along I always know it and it feels so good.

Shantell your bears are gorgeous you shouldn't feel about not selling ..... I know it is dissapointing when you don't sell....... I used to be the same feel really bad and think it was my bears that were no good... but they sell in time ..... I am so glad that your friend loved Emmerson :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Isn't that what it's all about Shantell!?  That is the best feeling in the world!  How wonderful that you were able to experience it in person right there with your friend!  That's one of the reasons I'd really LOVE to do a show sometime... to see and experience the reactions, rather than just through a phone call or e Mail!  Don't get me wrong... it still feels great to just know that something you've poured your heart into and made with your hands has the ability to evoke emotion, but I'd love to see it!   Lucky thing you!!!! Congratulations!   bear_wub  :hug:

Shantell, i'm so glad your sweet Emmerson found new loving home!
That means you did a great job no matter your bear was sold or not.. He found a new home and I'm sure it gives you more inspiration then just to sell the bear through the e-bay.. bear_grin  bear_tongue  :hug:

Firstly I can't belive Emmerson didn't sell in the first place, and secondly... lucky friend!


Glad it worked out well in the end.
