Today is THE day!

"A Beary Blue Christmas Event" opened today on my website with my first bear, Christopher, being offered for adoption.

No sooner did I get him to the event and he was adopted. Christopher will be making his way to Tennessee to warm the heart and home of his lovely new owner this holiday season.

If you would like to see more photos and details on Christopher or to find information about "A Beary Blue Christmas Event" go here. Hope to see you there!

A Successful Show

My first online show of 2015 was a great success and I am very pleased that my bears all quickly found new homes.

Mikayla is making her home in PA.

Reese is making her home in IL.

Kota is making his home in TN.

Thank you to all those who visited the show and stopped by my showroom to see my new collection of bears created exclusively for the show. Also, many thanks to the collectors who chose to bring my work home.
