The uniqueness of a Memory Bear or pillow is that it is created from the clothing of your deceased loved one. The purpose of a Memory Bear is to provide you with a personal object that you can “hold and hug” while you remember. Memory Bears are created in memory of a loved one. They are meant to be held and hugged, but are not designed to function as a toy. What type of clothing is used to make a
Memory Bear? Most clothing can be used to make a Memory Bear. Remember, the stiffness and/or softness of each bear will depend upon the fabric provided. I recommend you avoid clothing that is loose knit (sweaters), stretchy, silky (slippery), or thin with wear. I can also use non-clothing items like blankets, table clothes, ect. If in doubt, let’s talk about it. How much clothing will it take to make my Memory Bear? Your Memory Bear can be made from any amount of clothing. They can be made entirely from one piece of clothing or from different articles of clothing to add variation and extra character to your Memory Bear. How do I order a Memory Bear? I like “requesting a Memory Bear” rather than “ordering a Memory Bear”. This is a ministry for me, so I want the entire process to be personal, not business. If you are interested in a bear message me here on FB or call me so we can chat about your bear/pillow. This way we can develop a more personal interaction and make sure everything will be as you wish it to be. How much will my bear or pillow cost? Most bears under normal circumstances are $50. Pillows are $35 also. Sometimes due to the fabric or style of clothing piece there will be an extra charge, but I will go over that with you and explain it before I start your piece.
