 I've almost finished painting on this old vintage collar box. Just some more work to be done on the little annie brooch I've added on ted's collar. Also I have to decide what to put on the front of the lid as it needs something, but I'm restricted with painting because of the strap coming over the top of the lid. Any suggestions??

Farewell Little Bears!!

Mum's little bears have now been adopted and are now on their way to new homes. Was sad to see them go, but am grateful they're on their way to a new home where they'll be loved and cherished.

But keep watching as there will be more bears up for adoption in a week or two.

Enjoy your week-end! Robyn.

Sweet Little Thread Bears

Well I've just listed these sweet little collectable bears on Ebay. Just click on my Ebay link to pop over and take a look.

Aren't they adorable?

They are all completely hand crocheted by my dear Mum. She has been making bears for many years now. She used to always make the mohair type, but these have now been passed on to my sister and me for safekeeping, as she no longer has room for them to live with her.

These days she gains much pleasure in makeing these tiny bears, especially since they don't take up much room. Also they're great for keeping secrets, they never answer back, and don't cost anything to feed!

What more could one ask for in a companion?

I'm gradually getting on with my painted items and hope to have them up for sale soon. Hopefully I can get a clear space over the next week or so, without too many interruptions.

The necessities of life always interfere with the pleasurable creative activities.
If only there were more hours in the day!

Check out my current items for sale on my Ebay!

Hi just wanted to let you know I've just listed a batch of items for sale on my Ebay. Just click on the Ebay link on my home page to take you straight there and have a look.

I've added another of my Busy Bee boxes, this time it's a bear maker one. I thought it would be very useful for a bear maker or sewer.
This one features another vintage image from http://jraesshabbycottage.blogspot.com/  Julie has some beautiful images to share, so please do take a look at her blog. I think this box is really my favourite of the three boxes I've made so far. Let me know what you think.

I've also finally completed my 2 sweet prim shabby pink bears. 
One is "I Love You" bear, she carries a wooden heart, which I've painted with these words on it.

The other is "The Key to my Heart" bear.

 I've really enjoyed making the bears and am pleased with the way they turned out. I used a pattern from Sheila over at http://thecraftaholiccreations.blogspot.com/. Take a look at her blog, she's very talented and has some lovely designs for sale.

These items have now been sold thankyou!

Farewell Rosie & Poppy

Today with a little twinge of sadness I farewelled my bears Rosie & Poppy.
They've been adopted and are on their way to a new home in Queensland. 
I'm so glad they're going to the home of a bear collector where they will be appreciated.
Farewell my little friends!
