I thought that I had better get a little baking done for the kids and granddaughter. Even though our kids are grown they still think that I am suppose to make goodies and send to them. :) Lots of work but it is always nice when I know they really appreciate all of the cookies and fudge. I forgot to get photos of the cookies. The last two photos are of the fudge !!!

"NEW PANDA BEAR AVAILABLE"

I have finished a new Panda Bear that I named CoCo. I made him out of a longer dense black alpaca fur and a wonderful soft brown German plush fur. I love the combination of the black with the brown tones !!! CoCo has German glass eyes with eyewhites. Hand stitched nose. He is filled with polyfill pellets BB's and coated glass beads. He has a wonderful weight to him...I made him a neck piece out of bells and wired ribbon.
He is 13" tall and a OOAK creation. His price is 230.00. For more information email me at teddytoo@cableone.net

CoCo has been SOLD ~~~

The Forgotten Bunny !!!

Well I must say that this is a funny little story. For over a month now I have been going through boxes and lots of stuff to get ready for a garage sale. I opened a box full of old bears and dolls and pulled out this sweet little rabbit that I made in 1989. I had taken the eyes and nose off because I was not happy with the way it looked and decided to wait for another day to fix the poor little bunny. Well this time when I took her out I was tired and did not want to mess with it so I came very close to just tossing her in the trash....I know, not very nice. Instead I took her up to my workroom and put her in my basket of (to do) things. I took a look at her the other day and thought OK lets see what we can do. And WaLaaa she was re-born. You have seen the re-born dolls, well now you have seen a re-born bunny!!!!


Oh I called her "MERCY". Doesn't that just bring a tear to your eyes. :)

Thanks for stopping by !!!
Hugs,
Bonnie

Mercy will be on Ebay for five days ending on Mon. the 28th at 7:00 p.m. PST ~~~ I am sure she would love for you to stop by to say Hi ~~~Mercy  Mercy has a new home !!!

Sifting through more papers !!!

Well I have not gotten to anymore bear making yet since I have still been going through stuff in boxes in the garage. :) MEMORIES ~~~ it seems.

MY BUDDY !!!!
