My husband was over the moon with his memory bear made from his mums clothes. Sarah was very prompt efficient and professional and I will be placing another order very soon. Thank you Sarah
I ordered 3 bears in memory of my Nan who recently passed. The beautifully made bears are such a comfort to myself and the two family members I ordered them for. I added a voicemail message from my Nan to the voice recorder which has been a really special touch. Thank you so much!
Excellent service from start to finish and happy with the results
recommended by my sister in law I have ordered 2 memory bears. Material chosen by my two daughters from their nana's clothing. First one has arrived and it's incredible. So beautifully made, my eldest is over the moon, its like she has her nana with her. Her cat won't leave it alone and she hates cuddly toys but lives this. thank you so much. Can't wait to receive the next one.
I am very happy with the teddies made with my late husbands shirts. My grandchildren will love them to bits, having something of their grandad to cuddle. Sarah,thank you very much, nothing was to much trouble when I needed questions answering and for your hard work.
