Happy Easter

Just added 4 new creations onto the web site, busy morning taking the photos, we have also added some stunning photos onto their own page, can you see what they are made from.

Just what the teddy doctor ordered

Retail therapy, just how wonderful is it, I had a great day in the new shopping centre in High Wycombe, M&S great store, I am a little bias because I worked for them for over 35 years.
Just had the latest edition of Teddy Bear and Friends, very disappointed, seems much less reading in this edition, anyone else think this, or is it just me.

needed-Retail Therapy

What a nightmare of a week, started trying to work on 4 creations at one time, cut them all out, started work on the first one, then everything seemed to have come to a stop.
I will have to go back to my old routine of making one at a time.
However, found a solution.
When Keith is at work on Saturday, I will partake in some much needed Retail Therapy, can't wait.

From me to you panda chat

Hi, my name is mei-tou.

My mum just put my photo onto her web site yesterday, she spent a long time being very careful in creating me, she is a lovely lady, although she is still to find a supply of panda food for me.

My dad never stops eating, and is forever on the thing called a computer, playing with photos of my brothers and sisters.

My sister Beth says she is now available for adoption.

I had better go look for some bamboo as it is breakfast time here in England. If you would like to give me a lovely new home, please email, whatever that is, my mum or dad.

Panda hugs

Mei-tou

laughed til I cried, little naughty

Whilst we were taking pictures of my new creations this happened.
The floor in the conservatory is a little shiny, Keith only had socks on, when he started moving a chair, one leg started slipping in one direction, the other started going in the opposite way, doing the splitzzzzzz.
All of of sudden he did a Micheal Jackson impression, a loud high pitched yelp, jumping upright , his hand crabbed his crutch and he did a stock take, he happily reported everything present and correct, thank goodness for that.
I am sorry to say that I just burst out laughing and carried on for a few minutes, a real LOL.
Sorry no photos available LOL

do we all have a sweet tooth

Just been sent this photo, Justine was 33 on 3rd of the 3rd, she must have known team mawspaws have sweet teeth, has she seen all the photos of puddings and chocs on the web site.

Only one thing she did not reduce size of photo, so the pudding filled our computer screen, when are they going to invent, eat your screen.

We love our puddings, do you.

Crunchie is now available for adoption, as it is not now being held for the original collector.

easter bunny adopted

Keith will update the web site on Thursday, but just to say a big thank you for everyone who asked about the new bunny, but she has now been adopted.
Thank you
team mawspaws

spring has sprung

Working in the conservatory today was bliss, very warm and sunny, then a shock, when I went into the garden to have a close up of the bulbs that have bloomed, chilly willy as they say over here. Warmed up when we took the photos of the new Spring Bunny.
Just had a great laugh at a photo sent to us by the " 33 today " birthday girl.

Great feed back about the miniatures, thank you.
Latest news is that Milly has been adopted.
A couple of the others, Mandy and Crunchie are being held,
awaiting confirmation of being adopted.

All 3's today

3 new miniatures have just had their photos taken, and Keith is going to add to web site later today.

33 on 3rd day of the 3rd month, Happy Birthday J....

all the best Tony

Tony, just wishing you all the bearst and a speedy recovery from the double hip replacement operation.
Tony is my sister Elizabeths', husband.
She makes the fantastic hand made cards at http://www.nandecreations.co.uk/

don't ask about the spaghetti in the supermarket

Please do not ask about the spaghetti in the supermarket.

Spike is now moving to Michigan, USA.

We are having a chat about the next Prestige Collection bear being a draw for web update membears only.
I know some of you do not like that, but we want to give evryone a chance, hope you understand, will let you know what we decide.

Fred and Ginger, the pair of Goldfinches have returned to their feeder. Hopefully they will have some little fred and gingers later in the year.

Just booked up to see The Jersey Boys, if you have seen it, please let me know what it was like. The Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons show.

Did you work out how many individual pieces in a bear, all need marking out, cutting out, and each trimming. The answer is 23.
Do you think it is the same number for a panda.

here we go 1st entry

Here goes.

I have had a very busy week, last Sunday I went to a large bear fair in London, just looking and buying more supplies. It was great to see it so busy, lets hope it is the same in September when we will have a stand there.

I have been concentrating on another Prestige bear this week, Spike will be going onto the web site later today, Keith will be sending out a web site update email after he has completed the web pages. We took some photos of Spike yesterday before Keith went to his proper work, he is on lates this week.


Just to explain, team mawspaws, I make all my creations and Keith does all the computer work.


Just as a change from making a bigger bear, I have been cutting out some miniatures, funnily enough they take nearly as much time to make as a larger bear.


Would you know how many pieces need cutting out for a miniature, to give you time to work it out,I will tell you in the next blog.


Back to mundain tasks, just off food shopping now, so better go.
