Bear Bear

that seems to be going around, I'm feeling very much the same.

They look so good already! 😍

A brown little teddy bear with their arms up, wearing a white T-shirt with "bear bears" on it, in front of an ad for next month's Teddy Bear Total fair in Münster.

A woman holding a white crate with five little teddy bears in it. The bears are modelled after fruits and vegetables.

Yay! We'll be at Teddy Bear Total again next month! 🧸

I'm really looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones too, of course. I'm also excited to see all the wonderful bears there!

Second photo is a little sneak peek of some of the Bear Bears who'll be going to the fair with us! 🫐🍊🍎

Accurate.

Word of the Day is ‘ingordigiousness’ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.

I'm up and not crying.
I also have all my hair and haven't started any fires as of yet, so yay for us I guess! 😅

Every artist I know is really struggling right now. Financially, emotionally, their confidence, in general.

If you like an artist's work, support them any way you can. Buying their stuff or subscribing to their Patreon is great, but words of encouragement are also incredibly helpful.

Jee jee jee! ❤️

I look forward to seeing how trumps election influences the next season of Law and Order: SVU

Listen I know shit sucks but PLEASE find the things that make you happy and keep doing them.

It is not frivolous. It is how you survive.

Two teddy bears on a dark wooden table, one pale pink and one green. Both have fabric draped over them, the pin bear has pale pink tulle and the green bear black wool.

I didn't get these two done for Valentine's like I wanted.

I did get upset with myself about it, but in the end the deadline was arbitrary & I'm late to all the Wicked whoop-de-doo anyway.
So instead I’m doing my best to be kinder to myself. I'll finish these when I've the time, and that's fine. ❤️

Meet Heart! ❤️

Heart is full of heart, and has so much love to give! She loves all her loved ones & always has room in her heart for new people.
If you have room in your heart for Heart, you can find her in my shop.

6 hand stitched tiny teddy bears with embroidered bellies to all resemble the care bears. They are a rainbow of colors. There's grumpy bear, cheer bear, loves alot bear, sunshine bear, luck bear, with the caption "the only minorities destroying this country are billionaires "

Me too Jekku, me too. ❤️

Jee! Ihanaa! ❤️

It's only Tuesday and I'm already done with this week. Is it too late to become a bear and just hibernate through the winter?

The only correct answer is to pack all of them.

Meet Mocha!
Mocha celebrates this year's Pantone colour of the year, Mocha Mousse, a warm, rich brown hue. This shade of brown nourishes us with its hint of yummy chocolate & coffee, answering our desire for comfort.

Bear Bears turn five years old today! 🥳

It really doesn't feel like it's been all of 5 years since I started making the Bear Bears, time really flies when you're having fun! 🧸❤️

Congratulations! Here's to many, many more years of your amazing work! ❤️

Paljon lisää nukkekuvia, kiitos! 😊
Uudessa työssä on aina paljon, noh, uutta, mitä oppia, ihan varmasti ajan kanssa pääset siitä laiturilta veteen.

Oh this is so exciting! 🤩❤️

This is where I post from:
(This is from Camilla Mickwitz's book "Emilia and the three little ladies", one of my favourite picture books.)

What is this feeling, so sudden and new?

Why, it's me back at making bears after a rather long hiatus!

I'm hoping to have this popular duo done in time for Valentine's Day, or Friends' Day as it's called here, to celebrate their friendship and my love for Wicked.
