As a child I grew up with antiques. My parents not only collected but also opened a business in the small historic town of Cedarburg, Wisconsin where we resided. I learned the appreciation of fine things and enjoyed the collections that adorned our home. My room, at one point, was the focus of the antique doll and teddy bear collection. (What a lucky gal I was!) This is probably where it all originated.

A special section dedicated to old bears trying to find new homes.

In need of repair? I have years of experience with old bears in need of a new lift. Restoration is part of my business. I not only color match the repair but simulate the condition of the fabric to be as close to the original as possible. This avoids the look of a new patch on an old boo-boo.

Learn more about me and what I do on my "About Laura" page.

This is as small as I get with recycled fur measuring in at about 5 ½". Made of black mink and completely sewn by hand. It’s hard enough to sew the small fur bears but when you put black in the equation it becomes more difficult yet. There is no machine work, hence many hours of time. All my fur work is fully lined for durability. I have only had one small mink collar in black to work from and this is what I got. This little prized possession sells for $195.00 plus the cost of insured shipping
