My Bear Collection

I've always loved bears and had purchased a few many years ago.  Recently while browsing the internet I came across a website with some very beautiful bears.  I couldn't resist and ordered one ... which led to my ordering another ... and now I'm hooked.

Blue Bear
I purchased this adorable short haired mohair bear in 1999 at a Doll Show.  It was made by Jay Hadley, who was a very popular bear maker selling at New Jersey Shows in the 90's.  I wish I had bought more from him, but the last I heard he had retired and moved to Florida.


 

 

Winnie The Pooh
This darling Pooh Bear was also made by Jay Hadley which I purchased in 1997.  He's a growler and also a short haired honey beige bear. 


 

 

SnowBall
Snowball was custom made by Maureen Batt of MawsPaws Creations.   She is a 12" bear made from luxury faux fur, with polyfibre and glass bead filling.  She has mini bear fabric foot pads with stitched and shaded details.

 

 

Sienna
Sienna is an 8" panda, made from beige and light brown faux fur.  She is a OOAK bear hand made by Maureen Batt of MawsPaws Creations in England.  She is filled with polyfibre and glass beads, with black glass eyes and hand painted eye patches.  Her cashmare foot pads and nose are hand stitched.


 

 

Water Lily
Water Lily is a 6" panda made by Maureen Batt of MawsPaws Creations.  She is made of luxury faux fur and filled with polyfibre and glass beads.  Her eyes are solid black glass with painted eye patches.  She has ultra-suade fabric pads with stitched claws and a hand stitched lilac nose with a black outline.

This fun little group of miniature bears range in size from 2.5" to 5".  They were made by miniature bear artists Deb Canham, Crystal Smythe and Becky Wheeler.

Checkers is a OOAK 12" Panda made by MawsPaws Creations.  He is made from short pile luxury black/white faux fur with polyester and bead filling and black glass eyes with handpainted eye patches.  Checkers has sassy long pile fabric foot pads with stitched and shade detail and a black perle nose.

 

 

Fearne
And yet another MawsPaws bear.  Fearne is a 4" miniature bear made from sassy long pile of white/green fabric.  She is filled with polyester steel shote/grass granules and has black onyx bead eyes with ultrasuede foot pads which are stitched and shaded and a green nose with black outline
