Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Lovely bear, Lynn !!!!

Very pretty Jo!! Lovely dress too.

I've been doing some digging around on this and the general reaction is: most people seem to think you can't sell from your blog, however lots of folk do, even adding paypal buttons etc, below is a forum response I belong to with the same question.

Hi 

You can sell stuff on your blog. You could put a contact number and/or email address on the blog. You could add a Paypal or Google checkout button, so that people can pay if you are going the mail order route. Don't forget postage/shipping costs.

The most important thing is that people should be able to trust you to deliver their goods. I can't see many people buying goods from a random blogger unless they can trust you to deliver. If you have an ebay account, add this to your blog so that people can see that you are trustworthy.
Hope this helps.

I was quite shocked to see how low some of the prices were at the end of auction, the harlequin especially!!

Hi Jo. Know that feeling "ho hum", lovely bear!

Thank you for your comments, your all very kind. I do have to admit I did enjoy making this little girl bear.... Sssshhhhhh "don't tell Jacqui" lol

After a lot of nagging from Jacqui, I have finally succumbed to making a pink bear.  Well here she is "Victoria" a bit of a sad "old girl".

Hope you are all having a super day!
Best wishes
Darren :hug:

Lol... Thanks Katy, now I feel really guilty.    Hope your collarbone is on the mend.

Hi Guys!

I thought you might like to see my latest bear I have created from a genuine 90 year old piece of mohair, which I acquired from Germany in immaculate condition until I put my hands to it :crackup:  :crackup:

If you would like to see more pictures of Ernest please take a peep at my blog for more pics and information.
Hugs to you ALL!!
Darren

Tammy..... " beautiful", love him.

Thank you all, kind comments as usual, your a very polite bunch!

He's a cute little guy. 

Truely beautiful    Love her. î –

Hi

It has been awhile, been really busy, broke my toe! door frame 1 - 0 Darren LOL!!  I thought you might like to see a lady bear I have just finished called Betty. I have also made this sad little lady a handmade collar from french voille and cotton and given it a little of my ageing treatment, normally women want anti-ageing treatment, I do not think my techniques would go down too well and would certainly bring tears to the eyes LOL!!!

Well I am now back off to put my feet up, and perhaps give another poor unsuspecting bear some of my ageing techniques, at least when I do this it takes my mind off my own pain :-)

Hope you like Betty and do not think she is UGLY  :crackup:  :crackup:

Brilliant work Kelly... So tiny too!  Love to see your new creations.

Brilliant !!!!! Fantastic bear. Respect because it's not the easiest medium in the world.  Super face, lovely
