When I started my business in 1997, we were living in the Canadian prairies and the majority of the memory bears I made were from fur coats. Many people had kept their Grandmother's, and in a few cases, their Grandfather's fur coats. These coats had significant sentimental meaning for families as they were often entwined with stories of adapting to the harsh prairie winters. So rather than the coat simply hanging in a closet it would come to me to be lovingly repurposed into several bears so that many family members could have tangible visual reminder of the past.

"OMG! They are so beautiful Andrea. You have magical hands. This makes my heart so full!"
"The bears are incredible! The whole family is pleased with the quality of your workmanship as well as how much love and attention you showed throughout the process.
We know this is something we'll treasure & pass along from the children to the grandchildren!"
"Thank you for making it possible to give my sisters a piece of my mother. Your a wonderful artist. The Bears are beautiful and very well made."
"Awesome bears! An awesome artist! A great combination!"
Many people hold on to clothing items that are precious to them whether it be a child's first baby sleeper or a shirt worn by a loved on who passed away. These sentimental items can be transformed into memory bears and bunnies that are comforting, huggable reminders that evoke memories of the past.

"The bear I had made for my Granddaughter was beyond beautiful. The thought that was put into making the bear with the special baby outfit I brought was evident. I would certainly recommend anyone wanting to have a bear or bunny made to message See More Bears."
"I am in love with our bear. Andrea was wonderful to work with, quick communication, answered all of my questions and her craftsmanship is excellent. I am so thankful she was able to preserve my little guy's sleeper in this way. "
"I absolutely love my bear!!! I couldn't be happier with the final result, the communication with Andrea and the shipping time. Would absolutely recommend and have done so to every new momma I know! Such a special way to preserve a favourite sleeper. Thank you so much Andrea!!."
"Omg I'm in love with my bear! It's absolutely perfect I can't stop looking at it! Andrea did beautiful work and was wonderful to work with, I could not be happier. She turned my daughters favourite sleeper into something she'll always have! Thank you so much!!"
