I love my little hobby and have been blessed to make so many bears and blankets over the years. I have been withholding the increase of cost of materials it takes to put into making these creations.
If you are currently on my waitlist (the ones who have currently messaged me and we have meetings set for your orders), I am keeping the price as is but starting next month I am going to need to slightly increase my prices to make these worth my time, effort, and materials (stuffing, thread, stabilizing fabric, safety eyes, and noses.) One bear takes on average 6 hours and 22 different pieces for stabilizer and 22 pieces of main fabric plus the time it takes to hand stitch each piece closed as well as other handstitching that ones may require.
My standard bears will be $65 if you are interested in another size or if these are made from sheer fabric, lace, or sweater there is an additional $20 charge as it requires a lot of added prep work to make it stable to work with.
Also due to be almost scammed I only take cashiers check if these are out of state and not local meet ups and will be charging shipping to ship to you. Meet ups - I am limiting to 20 min from my town in East Fayetteville, AR or in my town in Elkins area only. Unless I am planning on going further that day then we can work something out possibly. I am keeping my prices very competitive and even on the low end of whats listed on Etsy for other bears.
I am a very busy working mom of a normal 8-5 shift and need to make this easy for me in order to continue to be able to make these keepsakes for you. Sometimes I need a weekend off so turn around times may vary but I work as much as I can on my days off to get them done in a timely manner.
Thank you for understanding and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
