Tony had this baby clothes keepsake bear made for his wife from his Grandaughters (Princess Farty Pants!!😁) clothes. This is their 6th bear and they are all happy ones! Did I tell you my bears can become addictive? 🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻

Thank you for these wonderful wedding photos Kirsty. I hope you all had a lovely day with your Dad bear 💙

This is Tony and Denise's 6th bear (I think, I've lost count!) It was made from their granddaughter's bunny themed baby clothes, so Tony suggested bunny ears to match! I attached an oversized bunny ear headband onto the neck ribbon, to make it truly unique!

Hi Kay, we received the bears yesterday and my mum and nan were so happy with them! Originally I was a bit concerned that the clothes wouldn’t go well with each other, but they look amazing! Thank you again! X

Lovely to meet Karen this morning who is having a bear made from her lovely Dad's clothes. Karen was saying that her Dad learnt sew in the army and had sewn the inside leg of his trousers up! I just have to include this in her Dad bear, a very unique personal touch!

I'm about to cut these clothes today and turn them into a fabulous bear! Very fitting after yesterday's win! Had a great afternoon watching the match with my boys #mancity #champions2019
