"Daisy" - Vintage Dreams


"Daisy" 7 inches

Please meet "Daisy" a 7 ins lady bear from my Vintage Dreams Collection. "Daisy" is just a tad over 7 ins tall, a traditional little bear (extra long arms/legs just like the old style bears), as are all my Vintage Dreams Teds. She has been created from a lovely pink mohair with co-ordinating paw pads, fully jointed, black boot button eyes, cotton nose (worn), cotton claws/stitching. "Daisy" has been gently aged to give her that worn/loved look. If you like old looking bears then "Daisy" is just right for you. She is now on my website and in my Etsy store!



Hope you like her!

"Will" - 7inches

I have been really busy the last few weeks while Casper has been re-cuperating from his knee surgery, trying to catch up with all the bears who weren't quite finished so that I can continue with my new designs. Below are a few of them. Hope you like them!


"Will" 7 inches

"Will" is from a traditionl pattern (same as Sophie and Jodie below) and stands at just 7 inches tall, fully jointed, poly filled, boot button eyes. needle felted nose, cotton mouth. He has been created from a lovely vintage gold mohair. He reminds me of "Wee Willie Winkie", hence his name. He comes complete with his beige/white plush jacket and hat ready for the winter. He is a cute little bear with a lovely smile. He is now on my website and in my Etsy Shop!


I hope you like "Will"
