Ol`Dumby



is listed on ebay now!
I forgot to tell about Fox!
At the show last Sunday the booth next to me was selling old Steiff animals. I´m usually not really into that - to be honest I sold the most of my old Steiff animals a few years ago - but look what I founf....this wonderful old Dog:
I asked about the price...but it was way too much out of my possibilities...but he´s so cute and well loved...I couldn´t resist to ask for taking some photos.
Ok...have a great day all over the world...will have to wake up the boys now...

Yesterdays teddybear-show


Ok...first I´ve to tell there is also a new elephant...to see more of him please visit my website and also something very new for me...I made a bear from mohair but kind of ragdoll...

Ok, yesterday we hab the "Teddybaerlinale" a teddybear show in Berlin.
I think there were more visitors than the last two years before - and for me it was a very fun and good show. I really enjoyed the kind words of my booth decoration and the special kind of my bears.
So here are some pics...






Today I finally updated my website...so come on over to take a peek...

Halloween





Hi - I hope everyone had a great Halloween!

We first went trick or treating with the boys and later stayed with friends at their house.
We had Nachos and Dips and lots of wine...and I did those yumme pretzel-rolo snacks...but I realized a bit too late I didn´t take a pic before we had them....so here are just the left overs....




We had a great Halloween!
