This is for all of you looking for tips, tricks, techniques and tutorials for bearmakers. I will cover both basic skills like nose embroidery, paw detailing, eye placement, stuffing, cutting, but will also try to give hints and tips to help you sell your work. There will be photography tips, marketing tips, tutorials on how to make a banner and even fair preparation tips. I will also be teaching a couple of complete projects on this blog, like a penguin with double neck joint in December, a lying down bear with a very different design and another surprise design. I will also explain things about airbrushing, molding noses from ultrasuede or leather, eye-enhancements and fabric dyeing. <br />I have been making bears for over 12 years now and won many awards for my work. At this point I would love to share with you what I have learned through the years and be able to pass on some techniques, which will hopefully help keeping our beloved craft alive :)The fee is US Dollar 94 per year, payable in one time, to prevent me from spending too much time on adminitration. I am much better at bear making than administrative jobs I am afraid :)<br />There will also be monthly give-aways and enormous discounts on some of the bears I will be making together with you in this year. <br />Please note that you can join in all through the year, because you will be able to read through the archives. <br />SPECIAL NOTE: Most of the time I use etsy conversations to contact you, most of all because my dutch server gets blocked a lot. All passwords up until now have been sent out within 24 hours, but you might not have received them, if you have not checked your etsy conversations. I will try to send out passwords to the e-mail address you use for your paypal payment, but it it entirely possible that this e-mail could be blocked. If you would like to use another paypal address, please let me know in a comment with your order :)<br /><br />I hope you will all have fun!<br /><br />I will try to send out passwords within 24 to 48 hours after I receive payment. I am officially having time off now, so won&#39;t be spending as much time at the computer as usual, but will still try to get the passwords to you in this time frame :)<br /> http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25395061 Tue, 29 Sep 2009 05:13:56 -0400 94.00 http://ny-image0.etsy.com/il_155x125.71896140.jpg new 63
