INTRODUCING HENRY

I would like to introduce you to my latest Toy-Box Treasure called Henry who is looking for a home as he is not very happy living in the corner of the dark old Toy-Box.

Henry is a One of a Kind 8 inch, traditional style bear from my award wining Toy-Box Treasure range, he has all the characteristics a classical style bear should have, hockey stick shaped arms, long straight legs, long snout, embroidered claws and not forgetting a hump.

Henry is made from an antique looking, chestnut brown German mohair, his paw pads have been made from a rich brown looking suedette.  This little  bear has small, aged amber glass eyes and a black embroidered, thread bare nose which is also slightly waxed.  Henry has been aged and distressed, replicating the places where a much larger bear would have been a little worn from years of love and cuddles, he even has the odd spot of darning to add to his old world charm.

I have made Henry a small old looking ox blood leather collar with tiny little bells that I have also aged to complete his much loved look.

Henry is fully jointed and firmly filled with a heavy weight stuffing.


Adoption Fee:  £85

EPHRAIM A FURGOTTEN BEAR

I thought you might like to see Darren's latest Furgotten Bear called Ephraim. Darren is not happy unless he is making a perfectly good piece of mohair look like it has seen better days :-) This poor little bear looks as if he has been well and truly loved, and even perhaps left un-noticed in the corner of an attic somewhere. Ephraim has been in the wars with one boot button eye and the other is an old black button, but as you can see from the pictures he can still manage a slight little smile! I must remember not to leave Darren alone for too long with any of my mohair...goodness knows what I will come back too :-) If you would like to see Ephraims details please click onto my website JAC-Q-LYN BEARS and visit the Furgotten page. I must get back to my own sewing now as I have a sweet little girl bear waiting to be photographed.
