A Christmas Without Bears?
I spent the weekend decorating for Christmas like many of you. My husband drug out all the boxes, stacked them in the center of the garage and asked “are you doing the bears this year?” ” Think I’ll skip a year” I said. “Maybe they’re getting a bit old, year after year.”
And then tonight I found these pictures…
“So you’re done now, right? I can put all these boxes away?” “Yes, all finished!”, I said. But that was before I found the photos.
I don’t have the heart to tell him my little friends can’t sit outside in plastic bins. I don’t know where I’ll put them now that all the decorations are up, but they have to come in and be part of our holiday tradition. Call me sentimental. He’s put away all the boxes so I think I’ll just link him to this blog post. Who can resist these bears?
While I’m working on finding a place for my bears, I found another picture for you! Would you like to win a few of these tiny little bundles? Packages of 2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ squares of Lily & Will II!
Leave me a comment and 12 of you are going to win 3 little bundles each of yellow and aqua Lily & Will II! Oh the fun you can have with these little squares! I’ll announce the 12 winners Friday December 3rd!
Have a great week everyone!
Hugs,
Anne

Aah! after my heart! We have a collection of sweet bears too. They each have their own costumes dressed for each season. We bring one out at a time Bunny Bear for Easter, Surfer Bear for Summer, Whitchy bear for Halloween, Pumpkin Bear for Thanksgiving, and Santa Bear for Christmas. If your still thinking about a spot from them…how about around the tree! Thanks for another contest.

Oh I can understand the struggle, those bears are so cute to be admired by people of all ages. I also have a bear collection.They are away but not forgotten, I wont get rid of them even if my kids think I SHOULD.. oh no I PLAN TO bring them out again for display someday. I love your new patterns. Would love to use them to redecorate my bears. Or make a quilt to display them on. Sandi

Fun fabric! I need to start dragging the boxes out. I’m jealous you have decorated already.
