A Special Bear

Memory Bears are a wonderful keepsake

Memory Bears are bespoke handmade keepsakes which are made from cherished clothing or blankets that belong to yourself, a child or to a lost loved one.   


These bears are unique to yourself and family.  Over time they become a treasured heirloom.


School uniform bears make gorgous gifts for teachers and school leavers.
