Description
My new venture, which is primarily a labour of love. As I am Irish, all my bears have Irish names. Pictured are Aodh (blond), Síomha (brown) and Odhran (mink/pink).
My bears are 100% wool (and two plastic eyes), made of ethically sourced, mulesing free wools. I mostly use Merino and Corriedale, but there's some Blue Leister and Alpaca wool.
These bears are needlefelted, and each one takes about 15 hours to make. I designed them myself and they were inspired by a friend having a baby, for whom I wanted to make a keepsake.
Not properly depicted here as I'm still developing them, are fabric envelopes which the bears may hold, and which may contain a personalized note to the recipient.
The inclusion of envelopes/personalization is optional, as is the colour of scarf that comes with the bear you choose.
I currently can be found on Instagram and Facebook www.facebook.com/threadbearsie… and www.instagram.com/threadbearsi…
My Etsy shop will be opening June 2019.

These bears are gorgeous, I'm a Collector, so depending on the price, I'd be interested once your store goes live.

Thank you so much! Best thing to do is follow in Instagram if you use it, but I'll post another announcement on DA when it does go live.

Not difficult, just time consuming!
