Hello everyone-As I have mentioned before,I am technologically challenged and still can't figure out how to send pictures of my bears for you all to see.However ,a store in Shakespeare,On.has agreed to take some of my bears on consignment.This in itself was thrilling as I never have much luck at shows, only selling one or two.Everyone tells me how wonderful they are but proceed on and buy someone else's bears.Sue, the owner, emailed me to tell me that my bears are up on her web-site, www.bearsami.com. I finally feel like an artist!! If anyone has an extra few minutes to look at my bears today, I would really appreciate it and if you have any ideas for improvements or ideas on how I can sell please let me know.I don't want to have to give up but I need to have a market in order to avoid the discouragement that I was feeling.Hopefully something good will happen at the bear store!

Congratulations Jane! You must be so excited :dance:
My only advice on dealing with stores (on consignment) is to make sure that you have a very detailed contract that outlines what happens if...say for instance a piece is stolen or damaged. Don't worry though, it is strictly a precaution and I'm sure your bears won't be there long enough - they'll fly off the shelves!
Best Wishes

Jane, I just checked out the web site and your bears look great! My only advice is that it would be nice to know the size of them - at least I didn't see any sizes listed - hope I didn't miss that???
