Blessing the Bear
I found her in a resale / antique shop.
Sitting there so prim and proper among so many other things. She stood out to me, almost saying....Hey, look this way. Over here at me. Wouldn't you like to take me home with you? As a matter of fact I would. ..said I. I kindly asked her price and the gentleman replied $5.00.
I'll take her please....in all her glory.
She was created by Teddy Bear artist Carol Black. Whom was Teddy Bear artist of the yesr in 1989. She was fashioned in an antique style from white mohair and fully jointed. She is a good size of at least 20 inches. I am just a little happy about finding this one. I love old or old style bears almost as much as I love my dolls.
So what kind of treasure have you found as of late? Anything worth sharing? If so please do! Blessings
Love your new bear she is great. I found two lovely 'lady' bears in our local charity shop last week as well. :-) They are my 'Ladies who Lunch' pair.

ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful, I'm in the process of 'dressing' my Momma's teddy bear. This teddy kept her company during her days in the nursing home. Your blog décor is beautiful!! I enjoyed visiting with you today and look forward to many more. Hope your day is happy and blessed.
