Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Wow , great job ladies!
Now I can't wait to see my copy. It always comes late, though I never thought the mail lady might be looking at mine too! :doh:

That's what I do too! I usually hit the dollar stores every two weeks looking for goods for shipping bears, and for packaging bears for sale. I love the tiny gift bags for selling bears.:cool:

Hi, Donna

Reno is Five hours one way from my house that is no stops. I live closer to Salt Lake City Utah, I went to that Crossroads Show in April. It was not bad. I met some really great bear makers there. Very Generous, Sweet wonderful people.
I can't go to anyshows this month I have other commitments with family.:|

I think the whole point is the operator.spealing for myself here, just not that bright I guess. :lol:

:DThat is too Funny! I have TWO Teenage Daughters, and we all seem to go one right after the other unfortunately my poor husband never gets a break from the PMS around our house. One of us is either crying, screaming or looking to kill someone!!:D:D:D

I love mine because of the same reason, not a very clean cook. I was always boiling over my pots. This stove is a piece of cake ( HA) to clean. My other stove, I was always having to take apart and clean. This one I just have to wipe up when I am done. It is easy to clean too not like the old glass tops, It just comes right off.
I use a little baking soda and damp cloth if anything sticks and it comes right off.

I have to drive hours to go to a show, usually in another state, because there aren't any here where I live. Totally rural, I'm in cow country. I love it but there are no supplies here, no bear shows. They wouldn't know a bear magazine if you hit them with it.
I love to go to shows because I love to see the other artists and see their work. It is always so much better to feel and see a work of art!!!!!
I spend alot of money on shipping, because I have to order all my supplies....

Hey guys,
I have one of those glass top stoves too! I really do love it but I do the same thing all the time. I turn on one burner and stand there thinking why isn't this getting hot:mad:then I realize that I have turned on the wrong burner.
The problem is you have to use a picture diagram  to figure out which burner your turning on!:|If it would just say front and back I would get it:P
I better pay closer attention to those road signs too!!HA HA!

Hi,
I am always lurking about reading the posts. Great Family! Your pictures are nice.
I am totally with you all on NEIL DIAMOND, my teenage daughters can sing Hot August Night from memory, and just about any other Neil song, I love Carol King too!!!!
My daughters keep me exposed to new music too, Christian rock, and others, We listen to the KIllers, Green Day, Cold Play, I actually like Lincoln Park.  I like to listen to in Loud!!!!!!

I think the way it works on Ebay is you don't get charged a relisting fee if it sells the second time around that's all. If you edit or change it they sometimes charge you for the changes you make to the auction relist.

tiny teddy hugs,

The cat toy thing I thought that was a great idea too, until my cats thought that the bears were cat toys too. I only make smaller bears and a few that I really hated became cat toys, that  started the cats on a hunt for others. Twice while I was working on a new prototype the cat stole it off the table. Once she stole a head I was working on. That put an end to giving the cats unfortunate disasters or scraps.

I don't really know if they are picking up or not, it seems to go in spurts and leaps. Some weeks the bears sell as fast as you list them, some I have to list two or three times.
This week I have two bears listed one sold the first day the other I have listed twice before.
