Valentines 'Cupcakes'

'Valentines Rose'

These are the latest 'Cupcakes' to join Teeny Bears just in time for Valentines Day! They are available on my website Teeny Bears I have just got back into sewing after the Christmas season and not forgetting the snow! which gave us all something else to think about, our boiler broke down in the middle of all it, great time to go wrong, I don't know how those without central heating cope. Next bears I will be working on will be some Easter 'Cupcakes' and some new Gollies, watch this space!

Christmas Presents & Christmas Cakes

I'm so pleased with these, Needle case, Scissor keeper and pin cushion, which I have made for a Christmas present. I am hoping to make some more for my mum for Christmas and of course I want some for myself as well!

I have also been busy decorating these little fruit cakes, which I am taking to the Christmas Fayre on Sunday. And the weekend after I will be at Hove Bear fair with some of my mohair teddy bears, new photos coming soon.

And a bigger Christmas cake, I'm really pleased with how they have turned out.

I cant believe Christmas is only 3 weeks away, I have so much I still want to do, places to visit etc, I love visiting the garden centres and seeing all their Christmas displays, it puts you in a real Christmas mood, I cant wait to get the tree up, I'm hoping to do it next week.

Teeny Bears Christmas Pudding

This is the latest Teeny Bear ready to make his way to Hove Bear Fair, he has steel shot in his tummy which gives him a nice plumb feeling! He does look like hes eaten all the pies!

Last weekends event was at a local craft fayre where I took a selection of Christmas Cupcakes, unfortunately the weather was awful on Saturday so not many people ventured out, but I had an enjoyable day all the same. I have another one in 3 weeks time at Sarisbury Green Community Centre which I'm looking forward to.

Golly Gosh!

These are the Gollies I have been busy making since Hugglets fair in September, they are a special order from Asquiths Bear Shop in Henley-on-Thames. Hopefully they will have arrived now and will be on sale in store shortly. My next bears I will be working on will be a selection of 'Cupcakes' to take to Hove in December, watch this space for a sneak preview!

'Christmas Cakes'

Hi, I know you may think its a bit early to be thinking about Christmas but I need to get baking early in time for the Bear Fair at Hove which is at the beginning of December, I also need to update my web site with some Christmas cheer. This is my first batch of 'Christmas Cakes' finished this weekend, they will be appearing on my web site very soon. The only problem is unfortunately you cant eat them!

Mum's Birthday

This is my latest 'Cupcake' made especially for my mums birthday, I have named it Gateaux, it really does look good enough to eat. Since the bear fair at Kensington last month I have been really busy making Gollies and working on a new selection of 'Cupcakes' in time for Hove Bear Fair in December.

Mums Birthday cake, which is vanilla sponge with a butter cream icing, it didn't last long!

This piece of brilliant art work is what my husband has been working on. He got this idea from a little pottery we visited on our holiday last year to Denmark, he has been planning it ever since, it looks really good in front of the rockery.

Cakes & Bears

'Mince Pie'

I had a wonderful day at Hugglets on Sunday, I sold more bears on the day than ever before and have lots of orders to complete. Hugglets is always a great fair, well organised and very well attended, its great to catch up with other bear artists and regular bear collectors and even better when you sell some bears, my 'Cupcake' bears sold like Hot Cakes! Also my Gollies went very well, I have an order for 10 for a very well known bear shop in Henley Upon Thames.

'Strawberry Tart'

I have also been busy making real cakes, here are a few pictures, there are 108 cupcakes on the stand, I had great fun decorating them.
