Please visit all the Heir
Bears who came to this event just to meet
you! Some of them will be dressed up in their favorite outfit,
and some of them will just be themselves, with no frills, but ready to
enjoy the party.
About the Artist: I am Jane Woodard and I have been creating real fur bears
and other critters,
using recycled furs, since 1999. My fur bears are
heirloom quality, fully lined with a cotton fabric to stabilize and
reinforce the fur. They are created to ensure you can pass them on to
your children and grandchildren. Recently I have added some
faux fur and mohair bears to the den and they are all getting along just fine!
My bears have been featured in
articles in Teddy Bear Review (including the cover), Teddy Bear and Friends,
and Teddy Bear Times magazines.
My bears have also been proud winners of a 2016 and 2020 URSA award.

Bears.
