Teddy bears and furry friends often become a child's most cherished companion. Bella Bear Company creates luxurious teddy bears from vintage furs. Their creations, however, aren't your typical stuffed friend. Bella Bear Company's outstanding reputation is maintained by creating, designing, and stuffing each special bear by hand. The result, a sentimental keepsake, no matter what your age.







Julie Lamarre, owner and designer, begins the process by cleaning and preparing the fur from salvaged fur coats and stoles. The lining is removed, fully inspected, and then given a new, durable lining (to withhold all the big 'bear hugs' it will receive). Each piece is individually hand cut to its unique pattern, designed by Lamarre. Bears are then individually stuffed by hand for life-like movement and feel.







Go to Bella Bear Company's online store now to browse their endearing selection of luxurious bears. The Mink Bear Collection is created from the finest quality recycled mink fur. The Specialty Fur Bear Collection is created from a variety of stunning furs including fox and mohair. Bella Bear Company will also create Special Order Heirloom Bears from an old fur coat that has been hanging in the cedar closet for years now. Work with Lamarre to create a special keepsake for any occasion.

bunny love tees

Sweet Bunny Love tee from Dirty Laundry. The dirt on Dirty Laundry is that they believe a t-shirt is a statement that lasts as long as you like, and says nothing and everything about who you are! Their tees are super soft and each appliqu? is hand cut and layered onto each tee by heat press or hand appliqu?. Hand appliqu?d shirts are stitched by their fantastic team of stitchers in Vancouver, Canada. The quality of these shirts is top of the line and their inner cloth tag will make you giggle as well.
