Please visit all the Heir
Bears who came to this special event just to meet
you! I am Jane Woodard and I have been
creating real fur bears and other critters, using recycled furs, since 1999. My
real 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. You might
also find a few mohair and faux fur creations which have been added to the den.
I have been
featured in articles in Teddy Bear Review (including on the
cover)
Teddy Bear and Friends, Teddy Bear Times, and most
recently the March 2022 issue of Teddy Bear
Times and Friends magazines. Severa1 of my
bears have been the proud winners of the URSA Awards
in 2016 and 2020.
