Custom order available. $40

Her name is Violette. I made this plush bear for a little girl. I created the pattern myself, sculpted the nose and eyes from polymer clay, and coated them with glossy varnish. I sewed a little skirt for this cutie and, of course, tied a bow. I added decorative stitching on the arms and legs to give the bear a more vintage look. I'm currently actively taking orders! Feel free to reach out — I ship worldwide.

Violette is ready to go to her new home, but I'm already taking orders for the next bear! Everything is handmade — from the pattern and polymer clay face to the little skirt and vintage stitching. I create custom handmade dolls and bears and ship worldwide. If you dream of a one-of-a-kind doll or bear — now is the perfect time to reach out. Send me a message, and I'll be happy to bring your idea to life!

So here's how she turned out. I'd like to experiment with the pattern a bit more, but I've run out of glass eyes so will have to wait till the ones I've orderd arrive. Working with mohair fabric can seem quite daunting to someone who's never tried it before but it's not! I remember having to work up my courage to attempt the first bear I ever made (I'd had a pattern and some mohair fabric for months before I finally decided to throw caution to the wind and just give it a go), and boy, did I ever kick myself in the butt for not trying it sooner! Piece of cake and so much fun too!! Hope you'll find yourself itching to learn and do new things this coming year! Go on, go and knock your own socks off!💗 #gingermelondolls #gingermelon #handmade #anime #kawaii #bearmaker https://www.instagram.com/gingermelongirl/p/Br3Ur3yhhHP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14d781d5pxmyq

The little bear is finally done and I'm ready to begin uploading all the photos I took of the making process, editing them all and then writing the instructions for the pattern tutorial. These babies (kitty and bear) measure about 6 inches tall and are entirely hand sewn using mohair fabric. I'll include a link for the fabric and glass teddy eyes in the supplies list so you can find them easily. Hoping to have it ready for release in about a week or so #teddy #bearmaking #bearmaker #dollsewing #dollmaker #dollmaking #dollmakersofinstagram #handmadedoll #handsewing #handmadedoll https://www.instagram.com/p/CeobRtLFofZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Day 3 of #marchmeetthemaker is beliefs and values 🤩 One of my beliefs is that we all have a responsibility for the future of the planet. I do my best to make sure that my packaging is recyclable or reusable. The only plastic that I do use is packing materials salvaged from @colourstreambrighton’s recycling bin, with the aim to give it another life before it is eventually recycled. 📦📦📦 Something I am currently working on is finding a new toy stuffing to use for the bears that is better for the environment. (If you guys have any suggestions please do let me know!) Other than that the materials used for the bears are all natural, the eyes are made from glass and metal and the fabric is 100% natural. 🐻🐻🐻 📷 @lbphoto.uk #marchmeetthemaker #meetthemaker #ecofriendly #ecofriendlypackaging #bearmaker #etsy #etsyshop #etsyseller #handmade #bossgirl #smallbusiness #etsysellersofinstagram #btnetsy #toymaker #toycollector #shophandmade https://www.instagram.com/p/CL9vyz0nBq-/?igshid=150dukuxerz61

What do you guys think? Do you prefer this little face or the one in my last post? Mainly the difference (other than the type of mohair used and larger eyes) is the shape of the snout. This one's short and stubby vs the slightly longer, pointier snout of the previous bear. I think I'm leaning more towards this one, but would love to hear your opinion please! 😙 #gingermelon #gingermelondolls #teddybear #bearmaker #sewingcommunity #dollmakersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/gingermelongirl/p/BsByEcABCN_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d8534rwuetum
