Meet Etta! She’s a beautiful pink cable knit bear with suede accents. She was commissioned by a customer for a family member’s birthday. Our customer picked out the material and sent it to us to use to make this very special bear. This is the first time we’ve done this and we just loved the personal touch it added!
Etta is floppy, huggy, pretty and sweet. We hope she has many happy days with her new friend.

Wilson Bearson stared out the window longingly. The cold winter wind had blown away the dusting of snow from the previous day. The pretty icy powder had retreated once more to dry green grasses. He sat back down to polish the runners of his little wooden sled. “It’s ok,” I told him, “The winter will come.” I pushed a tiny steaming cup his way. “Have a sip of cocoa….”

Wilson Bearson is a soft and beautiful chocolate brown velvet bear made from a wonderfully classic, vintage inspired pattern. He’s 11 inches tall (7 inches sitting).

Wilson’s accents are a classic cherry red flannel plaid, perfect because he loves the winter and loves to snuggle!
Wilson is stuffed with wool, and weighted to make him pleasingly heavy when held and hugged. Wilson is button jointed with lovely, vintage wood toggle buttons with a pretty basket weave texture and matching chocolate brown color.
Wilson’s sweet nose and smile are handstitched with cotton floss. His eyes are beautiful amber glass safety eyes.

Wilson loves to wear his soft, cream colored merino wool hat decorated with rustic, old fashioned jingle bell.
Wilson Bearson is one of a kind and individually made. He would make a wonderful gift for someone you love who loves handmade bears, or add him to your own treasures.
Wilson is made with much love, and is safe for anyone over the age of 3 (due to small parts).
Teddy bears are wonderful friends, so even if your little one is very small, Wilson would love to sit on a shelf in their room as a decoration until they get old enough to play.
Wilson Bearson is made with high quality new and repurposed, natural and hypoallergenic materials-he’s beautiful and a responsible way to reuse lovely, “forgotten” fabrics~something we just love!

And handmade is the very best way to say “I love you”!
Thank you for visiting!

Jubal Westingbear fit right in. He colored a picture with the children and other bears this morning during school time. Then he ate all his peanut butter sandwich at lunch, even the crusts! He laughed at all the silly parts of the story at storytime, and curled right up and went to sleep on his mat at naptime.
He loves to wear his comfy cotton overalls and snuggle under the covers a little extra long in the morning, but just ask and he’ll help with anything he can around the house.

Hide and seek is his favorite game and he’s so agreeable, he’ll even be the first to do the counting and seeking while you hide. What a nice, sweet bear to have around!

Jubal is 13 inches tall from head to foot (about 8 1/2 inches sitting). He’s made of a soft black wool and he has buttery soft, wheat colored suede accents.

Jubal’s pretty eyes are amber glass safety eyes. His sweet nose and smile are handstitched with black cotton floss.
Jubal’s stuffing is weighted so make him feel pleasingly heavy and “real” when you hold and hug him.
Jubal is 5 way cotter pin jointed with extra strong galvanized steel cotter pins we made right here on the Moor. His joints are 1/4 inch hardwood disks. He can pose in many cute ways.
Jubal is wearing a set of homespun comfy cotton plaid and flannel overalls with cris-cross straps and snaps at the shoulders.

Jubal would make a wonderful bear friend for anyone over the age of 3, or add him to a nursery as a beautiful decoration. He’ll wait patiently till his little friend gets old enough to play; He’d also love to just come home and be your friend!
Jubal is one of a kind, and individually made like all the sweet bears here on the Moor. He’s made with much love, and comes with a card dated and signed by the artist.

When I opened my eyes the whole world was new! First I saw the soft glowing light from the lamp on the dresser. Then, I felt soft hands turn me this way and that. Then a hug from a small child made me feel cozy and warm. I smelled the delicious smell of morning coffee brewing and heard my name for the first time. What will this wide world bring? I love it already!

Kinder Bearmingham is a wonderfully classic, 5 way cotter pin jointed teddy bear! Made of a beautiful caramel colored wool and perfect for dressing in your favorite outfit, and very sweetly poseable. Kinder’s head turns, and limbs hang and move in different natural ways. This type of wobble jointing technique makes Kinder floppy like a baby, but sturdy and able to go on all sorts of adventures.

Kinder is 11 1/2 inches tall from head to toe, 9 inches sitting.
Kinder has buttery soft, coordinating caramel suede paw pads.

Kinder’s sweet nose and smile are handstitched with black cotton floss. Kinder has lovely amber colored glass safety eyes.
Kinder’s stuffing is weighted with pebbles for a pleasingly heavy and “real” feeling when held.
Kinder’s joins are hardwood disks, with extra strong galvanized steel cotter pins we made right here on the Moor.
Kinder is one of a kind, individually made, and perfect for young and old alike. Kinder is a neutral bear, ready to be dressed as a girl or a boy.

Do you love making doll clothes? Kinder is the perfect bear for you to add to your collection, or give as a gift with your own personal touch!
Kinder will come lovingly packaged with a card dated and signed by the artist.

UPDATE!! Sandy has been adopted by Anja and is getting ready to travel to Massachusetts bright and early tomorrow morning!
******************************************************************************************************************
Sandy Bearington sat and thought. Today was a new day, and the sun was streaming in the curtains. What would today’s adventure be? A story, a walk in the woods? First he must ask his person for a sip of tea…

Does anyone need a high spirited, incredibly loveable teddy bear with an incredible penchant for chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream? Grabel tries to be good, but we keep catching him in the freezer…he says its just because he likes the cold, but we know better!
Grabel Bainbridge is a wonderfully floppy polar teddy bear. He’s 10 inches tall, 6 inches sitting. He is made of a beautiful white and black cotton fleck repurposed sweater material that really gives him softness and personality. He has a buttery soft wheat colored suede muzzle, and lovely coordinating navy plaid cotton lining his paws and ears.

Grabel is button jointed with lovely, unfinished blonde wood buttons that match his muzzle nicely. His sweet nose and smile are handstitched with black cotton floss.

Grabel has shining navy blue cat’s eye bead eyes. We love the unique “moving” glint of a cat’s eye bead!
He has a velvet ribbon collar with a sweet little heartshaped swing tag that reads “handmade with love”.
Grabel’s stuffing is weighted to give him a delightful slightly heavy, “real” feel when held.

Grabel is so huggable, and he loves to pose in so many cute ways (he really is a ham when you get the camera out!)
He is wonderfully unique, individually made and one of a kind (all our bears here on the Moor have their own sweet look!). Grabel Bainbridge comes with a card with his birthday and artist signature. He would be perfect as a gift, or add him to your own snuggle of treasured friends.
Grabel is securely made with new and repurposed, hypoallergenic and natural materials, all gently cared for here on the Moor. He does have small parts, so please use your discretion when buying for the very young.

Handmade is the very best way to say I love you!
Thanks so much for visiting!

He sure is small, but he has a great big heart! Meet Eli Bearington! He’s just right to fit in a pocket and tag along on all kinds of adventures. At the end of the day he’s perfect to share a little snack (he promises not to take too big a bite-being a bear of very small size)

Eli is a modest but adorable 6 inches tall (4 inches sitting). He’s made of super soft, irresistibly huggable blue cotton velvet. His paw pads are a pretty, vintage inspired cotton plaid with stripes of mustard, plum and wheat.
His stuffing is weighted to make him delightfully heavy and “real” feeling when you hold him.
Eli’s eyes are shining, navy cat’s eye beads. His sweet nose and smile are handstitched with black cotton floss.

He’s button jointed with engraved, silver metal bead buttons at each joint. His collar is black suede with a sweet heart shaped charm that reads “handmade with love”.

Eli is individually handmade with much love. His materials are repurposed and brand new, natural and hypoallergenic. He comes with a card dated and signed by the artist.
He’d make a wonderful, unique gift for someone you love, or tuck him into your own special treasures.
Handmade is the very best way to say I love you!

Our sweet Betsy Bearhardt went to her new home in San Diego, and her family of new bear friends (with the help of their Mama Molly) did a blog of her first outing! We are so honored and happy to see a story about one of our sweet bears:

Molly is such a wonderful lady, and someone I’ve really enjoyed getting to know. Thanks so much Molly for including Betsy in your family of bears. I hope she has a wonderful long life with her new family!

Benjamin Bennington Woolbear might be a young cub, but he’s full of ideas and innovations! He thinks of all kinds of helpful and thoughtful things. For instance, he shared with me that it’s always good to use a straw when the cup of milk is too big for little hands. He quietly suggests holding onto the bannister when the stairs are too tall to span with little legs. He also thinks its very wise to finish one’s green beans because dessert always follows close behind. Benjamin must go to a very special person who just needs a quiet, soft and practical sort of bear, for that is just the way he is.

Benjamin Bennington Woolbear is 9 1/2 inches tall (6 1/2 inches sitting)
He’s made of wonderfully soft, repurposed cashmere/wool blend material.
He has lovely caramel colored suede accents.
He has a touch of dry lavender in his tummy for added sweetness.
He is also weighted with steel bbs deep within the stuffing of his tummy and feet to make him pleasingly heavy and “real” feeling when held and hugged.

He has button joints with beautiful, vintage metal buttons, whimsically mismatched to give him a unique and folksy appearance.

Benjamin’s sweet nose and smile are handstitched with black cotton floss.
Benjamin’s eyes are lovely amber tiger eye glass beads, and both his eyes and his joints are securely string tied.
Benjamin would make an endearing gift for someone you love, or add this sweet little bear to your own snuggle of extra special bear friends.
Benjamin Bennington Woolbear is individually made and has his own sweet look. He comes with a card dated and signed by the artist too.
