Competitions!

Right this year after a lot of deliberation I have decided to enter some competitions!

Just have to sit back and keep my fingers crossed! 

The Cornwall Bear Fair!

I had an amazing time this weekend at the Cornwall Bear Fair run by Urchins bears, the atmosphere was amazing and full of such talented teddy bear artists! I met some really great people and it was lovely to meet some of my collectors in the flesh; its always nice to put a name to a face!

 My display 

had a great slideshow created by my husband 

(you can just see him to the side, hehe) 

and my son was a great help! (he is hiding!)

I was extremely lucky to win first prize for best bear as voted by the public and exhibiters; I came away with a lovely trophy and a big bottle of bubbly!

And Hazel with the frog was bought by Charlie of Charlie Bears, I was so chuffed! 

Great start to the year!

So sorry I haven't done my blog for a little while but 2013 is so far a fantastically busy year and I'm loving every minute!

Well these are a few things I have been up to:-

-I now have a website up and running so when you can, go and take a look!
