If it Quacks Like a Duck.... You Might Need some Sunshine!!

It has been raining so much today, I feel like I should grow webbed feet, waddle outside, and quack away.  I could use a little sunshine, so I had a peek at some of my Sunflower Bear Gifts.  Here are just a few of these cheerful, sunny teddy bear gifts.

Sunflower Bear was my first sunflower teddy bear gift.  A cream colored sweater with a sunflower on the front, plus sunflower print fabric pants, and holding a bouquet of sunflowers.  A gift that would definitely cheer up someone.

Sunflower Lady Bear

Sunflower Lady Bear is a sweet lady that comes with her own watering can, and some sunflowers, of course.  She's just a fun gal that likes taking care of her garden.  Do you suppose she likes to grow sunflowers?  I imagine that she does!!

Sunflower Angel Bear

Sunflower Angel Bear is a smaller version of the lady bear.  Comes with her halo and angel wings, of course, as well as a tiny bouquet of sunflowers.






Mr. and Mrs. Sunflower Bear

I love the look of a bright blue color mixed with the yellow sunflowers. The combination reminds me of the blue skies of Kansas over a field of sunflowers. Thus, when I saw this fabric, something good had to come of it!  Mr. and Mrs. Sunflower Bear are that something good.  Comes with the white watering can that is filled with small sunflowers.  Cute vest and matching bow tie for the Mr. and a pretty little dress for the Mrs.





Sunflower Buttons & Bow Bear

Besides having an eye for colorful fabric, I also have an eye for novelty themed buttons.  So, how to use these adorable buttons with a teddy bear gift?  How about the Sunflower Buttons & Bow Bear?  We used a dark green vest for the background and then added the sunflower buttons, as well as a flower pot and some lady bugs.  Cute Stuff!!

These Are a Few of My Favorite Things... In Pink

I have loved the color pink since I was a little girl.  My favorite piece of clothing was a pair of "hot pink" corduroy pants.  If I remember correctly, I wore those with a pink gingham shirt.  The color of my favorite teddy bear?  Pink, of course.  I guess it is no wonder that I am drawn to pink fabric and pink accessories for my teddy bears.  So I decided to share with you some of my favorites in pink.

Cancer Kickin' Cowgirl Bear

Let's start with the Cancer Kickin' Cowgirl Bear.  Not only do I like her pink bandana print dress, I like her name as well.  Having been through cancer treatment twice, we like doing some "cancer kickin' " around our house.



Pink Ribbon and Hearts Angel Bear

Keeping with the cancer patient themed gifts, how about this new angel, the Pink Ribbon and Hearts Angel Bear.  The fabric is done in several shades of pink with bright pink hearts and a little lighter shade of pink for the pink ribbons.  So pretty on a white teddy bear.






Sick Day Bear

A funny, kind of quirky bear is the Sick Day Bear.  She is dressed in her light pink flannel robe with bright pink crocheted slippers.  She looks like she's having a bad day, but I'm pretty sure that wearing that pink robe makes her feel better!


Mom Angel Bear

I like bold shades of pink, but I also like the softer shades, such as in the dress that the Mom Angel Bear wears.  A delightful gift for mom as this comes with one of my original poems, and the fabric features tea cups with a pink floral design printed on a soft pink.  

Sock Hope Bear

If you are old enough to remember the 1950's, or at least the tv show, "Happy Days", this little gal might look familiar.  Sock Hop Bear, in her pink poodle skirt and pink scarf is having a blast listening to her records (remember those round, black, vinyl things?) and dancing with her friends at the sock hop.


Little Lady in Pink Bear






The final bear featured in my favorite things in pink is the Little Lady in Pink Bear.  She is not on my website yet, so there is no link to see more of to buy.  I love this fabric with the black and pink colors intertwined and some butterflies thrown in.  Topped off with a pink hat and some pink flowers.


So these are a few of my favorite things, dressed in my favorite color, using my favorite plush, the teddy bear.  What is your favorite color?  Many of the items I sell can be dressed in your favorite color, check with me to see what is available.  Easy contact form available on my Contact Info page.
