I feel like I have been so inactive with my online and bear presence recently. I had been busy preparing for the show at Sheffield in November and after all that preparation and hard work, I am sad to report I have had to cancel my stand. It is nothing too serious and I am glad Katherine the show promoter understood, she is such a lovely lady so as you can imagine I did feel bad about letting her down and I still feel disappointed I wont be there, but "sometimes that's just how the cookie crumbles!"
Accepting I wouldn't be at the show left me feeling slightly deflated and my mind was preoccupied somewhere else and I felt I needed some personal inspiration. Have you ever looked for something, but you're not quite sure what you are looking for? . . Well, a few weeks ago that was me and I took a recommendation from a friend to purchase a book, which lead me to other books and further curiosity into other subject matters I have considered several times in the past but never looked into. Much of my time has been spent enthralled between the pages of three different books and suddenly my mood lifted and "hey presto" back to working on the bears, with a new personal inspiration and mind set.
Yesterday I put Jaydon and Franky on my website and I am thankful they both found new homes quickly. I am now working on new bears and I aim to try and up date my website on a more regular basis.

Melanie, I'm so glad that you've found your muse again. The new bears are simply wonderful.

They are both fantastic bears, I can see why they found homes so fast.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are feeling inspired.
Well done your bears are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love Jaydon He's a great samall bear
ReplyDeleteBoth fab wee guys, love Franky's fur (perhaps because his hair is rather like mine in it, err, multi-directional orientation ;o) )
