My bears are made from the finest quality mohair or alpaca, they all
have glass eyes, embroidered noses and I use tapestry or ultrasuede for
their foot and pawpads. They are filled with heavy polyester and
weighted in their feet with bagged steel shot and I use nut and bolt
joints.
I start talking to them from the first “snip” that I make in the fabric
so that by the time I am ready to create their faces I know who they
are.
I take a great deal of time over hand-making the wings as they are a very important part of my bears
and they are believed to
represent “freedom”. I am guided by each bear as to what they will
look like. They take a very long time to make as I only use top quality
sterilized feathers and have to attach each one individually. I also hand-make their accessories such as crowns
and garlands.
My Guardian Angel Bears are designed to stand so they can show off the
beauty of their wings, I have also created some cherubim and seraphim,
these have smaller wings and they sit.
My bears are for adult collectors and are not suitable for children
unless given as a keepsake NOT to be played with. They are all
individual (one of a kind) and named, the meaning of which is given on
their swing ticket which is signed by me.
If you would like to commission me to make
you a special Guardian Angel Bear please contact me.
Thank you for visiting the Guardian Angel Bears and I am sure they will
have made you smile. If you would like to invite one of my bears to
watch over you please contact me by phone of email.
