5 out of 5 starsRuth has made SEVERAL bears for me and this one matches the others I had made 7 years ago!!!!!I TOTALLY love this bear!!! She was available for all the details and it is great!!!I know my newest granddaughter will not get the meaning but Chris will be floored!!! I found one of my late husbands scrub shirt by accident and figured there was no way to replicate what I had made for the rest of my large family but SHE DID!!!

5 out of 5 starsI had 2 memory bears made and couldn’t be happier. One of the bears was for my daughter and one for me. They were made in memory of my son with some sweat pants and pajama pants if his. The embroidery is beautiful and they both turned out beautiful . We love our new bears and I will be ordering another when I find out what my grandson wants. Thank you so very much Ruth ❤️❤️

5 out of 5 starsThe bear that Ruth made me was ABSOLUTLY PERFECT and even more amazing than I could have ever imagined. She turned it around super fast and I can't say enough how amazing of a job she did.

5 out of 5 starsThey were perfect, I sent the shirts I wanted to use with additional notes. The bears were made exactly how I wanted. The email correspondence was great and she's quick to respond. Thank you so much!!
OK, I have to add to this because I can't really put into words how perfect these bears were. The little touches Ruth puts on them, ties everything together and they really were quality. If you want something made from a shirt you provide to her you won't be disappointed.

I got started first making soaps and lotions in 2001 after losing my full time job. I decided it was time to go out on my own. Since then the business has evolved into my passion. Not everyone gets the chance to chase their dreams and help others while doing it. My memory bears have brought many good memories back to their owners and given solace when needed.
My bears have been featured in Teddy Bear and Friends magazine in 2012, 2014 and was again in the articles section in the July 2016 issue. I love teddy bears and I love making them. I am always working to bring new things into the shop that are different from the rest.
I have decided to add Custom Tumblers to our offerings! We can now make Memory Tumblers so you can use and enjoy your memories all the time!
I will also have all kinds of tumblers, coffee mugs, flasks and hydrosport bottles soon in the shop.
So stay tuned for more additions!
