I used shirts of loved ones to create these bears

I heard about doing this from a newspaper article.

I recently made this one for my daughter's friend from her Dad's t-shirt.

I created this trio for my kids when their father passed away.

I use buttons, tags and whatever I can from the shirt to make it one of a kind.

Bear Hug

Each one has a tag that says this.

I'm only a bear, I'm

made out of clothes from

someone so dear who

from loving memory will

always be here, so when

you hug me up close to

you... just remember

Dad loved you too!

Just another angle of the three bears. I don't have a photo of a 5th one I made.
