Primrose

Thank you so much for visiting my page. I’m so excited to be back for another Ebearshow:) I do hope you enjoy taking a peek at my creations.
A little about me: I’ve been making bears and other friendly critters since the early 1990s, concentrating on small and miniature bears in recent years. I love to search out special fabrics and trims for each creation wherever I go. My creations have won the TOBY Industry’s Choice award several times, and appeared in magazines in Australia, New Zealand, the USA, Germany and the UK, but the most rewarding thing for me is when a wonderful collector adds one of my pieces to their hug:)
Unfortunately due to the worldwide situation with the coronavirus, parcels need to be shipped via express mail to prevent them being badly delayed. As a little thank you to my lovely collectors, I’m absorbing the extra cost for express. Postage still may take a bit longer than normal, even though it’s express, but I’m sure you will understand.
I do combine shipping- If you purchase more than one piece, I will refund any postage after the first piece.
I hope you enjoy your stay on my page. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can:) If you see something you like that is already sold, I might be able to make another similar for you, so please don’t hesitate to send me a message and I can see what I can do!

P.S, I’m going to get my Emil list back up and running, so if you’d like to be added to my email list, please just send me an email.
Stay safe and well and enjoy the show!
