Typo and Mrs Blackbird

Keith made a mistake on the price of Tara, he has now corrected it.
For the past couple of weeks we have been noticing our plant pot liners being decimated, we now know who is responsible, Mrs Blackbird.
I have just been out into our garden and only 3 metres from the house, Mrs Blackbird is sitting on a well hidden nest, so well constructed considering they only use their beaks.
We will have to wait now to see if we get any baby blackbirds, cant wait.

You are special to us

Over the years I have had some wonderful compliments about my creations, this week we have had a number of very complimentary and touching emails.
I just wanted to say a very big thank you to everyone for their support and friendship.
Both Keith and I really appreciate them, it is sometimes hard to put into words just what you mean to us.
We have a wonderful mawspaws family of friends.
Thank you.

exciting week

Precious, now renamed Lily has been adopted and moved to Finland, the first time we have had a creation go to Finland, very exciting.
The web site is in the process of getting a fresh look.
A pair of "beary" named pandas go onto the web site.
Just wish the weather would warm up here in the UK. chilly yuk.

Precious added to web site

Thanks for the interest in my last Prestige collection bear, Chester has now found a lovely new home.
Just added Precious to the site, adding her at a different time of the day, just to give as many of you as I can a chance to adopt her.
Bearst wishes.
PS, managed some lovely retail theraphy today, great fun... especially as Keith at work all day, and he had a nightmare of a day.

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.
Bearst wishes

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.

bearst wishes

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.
