Eyes and Noses

I made this little chap, maybe I should say chap-ess, last Monday but by the time I had finished him it was too dark to take any photographs, so a week later here she is. I bought some safety eyes and noses to try out instead of stitching on faces - Oh my god they are so so difficult to get on because of the small scale I wanted them in but when they are finally secured I think they look quite good. It gives quite a cute quality to the faces and brings the bear to life a little bit more (well figuratively speaking I suppose). I will probably invest in some new noses on a slightly larger scale to help make every bear face look that little bit different from the next, but that's for another time.

This one will be available in the new shop very very soon, watch this space!
