Panda Bear


For some reason lately, I have been fixated with little clothes that fit my bears. I have been trying out different patterns, and came up with this cute little jacket. It fits most of my little bears, which are usually in the three inch range. I have been collecting tiny vintage doll clothes, but it's hard to find really tiny pieces. I haven't decided whether I'm going to put this little panda on Etsy, or eBay. I haven't done eBay in a long time now, and I feel like if you don't list regularly, you won't get enough interest to sell them well. I have gotten myself a little stockpile of bears, now, because I was planning on doing a show sometime this year. There are 2 fairly local ones this fall.

Vintage Trifles and a long overdue post


This is a long overdue post and a little shoutout to Martha of Vintage Trifles. I purchased a little crown from her at Christmastime for one of my larger bears. (The lavender bear in the shoe).This spring, I happened upon her during an errand run, and found out about her Four Friends Sale, which I had to attend. It was so very beautifully set up, and I came home with a little bag full of goodies! She had graciously saved me some more crowns, of which one of my tiny bears is now wearing.

Here are a few pics of my goodies including French dictionary pages & pink glass glitter. Martha is such a wonderful artist. If you ever get a chance to visit one of her events, don't pass it up!
