Summer is here with many fun times ahead. Picnics, parades, drives to the lake and trips to the local Dairy Queen for hot dogs and ice cream will top the list. Come along with all my friends.

As a bear designer, I entered the world of bear making in 1993.  Two of my bears, Harrison and Hattie Harrison, are Golden Teddy Award Winners.  I love to "bear talk" and share stories with exhibitors and collectors at shows.  It is great fun creating sweet bear faces and then scouring antique and second-hand stores for just the right complementary accessories. 

I hope you enjoy my site and see a friendly face you can't live without!
