I absolutely love our bear! Thank you for giving me a piece of my Grandpa that I’ll cherish forever. To have something that reminds me of him to hug and to hold is just priceless.
Memorial Bear
Our heirloom Memory Bears each take a full workday to complete, and are custom designed with artisan care.
To create one Standard bear you can use half of an adult medium shirt, or 3 baby outfits. You can mix and match several shirts, and we return the remnants to you.
To preserve your clothes we manually bond each cut piece to a stronger no fray fabric before we do any sewing. Although it is labour intensive this step reinforces the clothes, so your bear is firm, huggable, and going to last for years to come.
Complimentary Services for each bear:
- A custom design highlighting the special fabric.
- A fabric printed felt heart on the pad of one of the feet.
- A special name, date, phrase, or photo custom printed in that heart.
- A satin ribbon, windsor, or bowtie in a fabric matching the color scheme.
- The inclusion of special memory items, such as a vial of ashes, a sentimental trinket, a letter from you inside the bear, or cologne infusion into the stuffing.
Additional Services:
If you have an mp3 of a voicemail or other recording a voicebox can be installed for $35.00
There is a fur bear surcharge of $15.00 for bears made from vintage fur coats.
