New Bear ~ Wesley

This little guy is 8 inches tall. He is made from German mohair and has worn out boot button eyes. I thought about making him into a clown bear but he just wasn't into the whole clown hat thing. He says he is too small for a big hat . . . so he won that battle, LOL. Funny how they get to decide !


He was OK with the rusty bells on his lace collar though.



His mohair has been distressed for an old bear look and I have squished his excelsior stuffing to give him a bit of a belly.


He has been listed in my Etsy shop
