Justine and her mum Pauline,
on the right,
with 3 creations that are more than a little adventurous
 

The 3 creations above include Soya, the camera shy one, who has now become famous, having been mentioned on national radio, BBC radio Fivelive by Soya's new mum, thanks Justine

 

Pictured above, Monique in her new home,
she was adopted at the Hugglets Fair, Sept 3rd 07,
and has a fantastically talented owner.
We met Jena for the first time at the fair and have spent many an hour looking at his wonderful web site.Please have a look but be prepared to spend a long time on it, it is absolutely fascinating.

Griffin and his new girlfriends

Daisie in her new home

"Can you believe it? A creation having a better time than me, I wish I could be adopted and have Griffins lifestyle, not one new girlfriend but two.
A little knobbly-kneed for me though.
I will put myself up for adoption and hopefully move to Canada"
These are Keith's comments when we received these photos from Canada.
If anyone wants to adopt Keith, please email me, I am sure we can arrange something, although the postage will be really high.
Only joking, because I know that nobody can afford the excess baggage charges.
Griffin on the left is obviously having a good time and enjoying his new
surroundings.
The rather more suitable photo on the right shows Daisie in her new home.
Thanks Brenda-May for the images,
gave myself and Keith a good laugh
The original idea of this page was to show everyone
 where in the world new creations have moved to.
Well Karen from New Mexico has put her own slant on the page, it is spot the new creation amongst the fantastic scenery. The scenic photos show Smudge on his vacation, just in case you can not see him, he is sitting on the table in the first and sitting on the sign on the third photo.
Well, the centre photo has its own story. As you can see,
 Samuel took over the box! You probably can't see
from this photo but he has one blue eye and one yellow one! Is someone taking Keith for a ride, so to speak, as he was making up this section of the page, all he kept saying was,
they are just as mad in New Mexico as they are around the world.
Thanks for the giggles
Karen

Hello Maureen and Keith,
Mayerling asked me to let you have a couple of photos of her with her new friends so that you could be sure she is safe and happy in her new home. I'm sure it must be difficult at times to part with your creations but then the knowledge that you are helping to brighten up
someone's life must also be rewarding. Sorry, does that sound pompous?
I was browsing through your website again the other day - it is really nice to see where all the bears (and bunnies) have gone to live but I know that when I see one I feel I simply must have, just underneath the picture will be those words "sorry, I have been adopted"!! 
Mayerling is only the sixth girl in my collection (along with Augusta, Arabella,
Aimee, Faith and Tamar) and I think it's time I did something to redress the balance. I will,
of course, keep looking on your site.
Hope all is well at the Belfry.  Kind regards,
Maureen in the UK

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


         

Don't think you are going mad, this really is a mawspaws rabbit sitting on the dogs head, these creations have moved to Canada, and here are some of the contents of our collectors emails, reproduced with her permission.

"To be able to make the creations that Maureen does, is truly a gift, and I'm delighted to add them
to my collection."

"They are absolutely adorable! And the workmanship, or should I say "workwomanship"
(that really should be a word!!!) is incredible! Thank you so much! I am so happy with them"
Brenda-May in Canada

Good evening Maureen and Keith
At first, I didn't forget you with my pictures!!! In the last weeks, it was very dark outside. I told you that I will wait for more sunshine. Then, when the weather was better, we were in our ski holidays. It was wonderful in the mountains
with snow and a lot of sunshine. Today now, I could make my photos with Emma and her friends. She found here a boy
friend with a boat and now she is very happy! Have a look on these pictures.
And now, dear Maureen and Keith, I wish you all the best for the future. Perhaps we will hear from each other at an other occasion.
Bearst wishes from Switzerland
Anita and Emma


  
                                             
This is a message from our Children in Need bear that has found a new home in the USA.
Thank you Shelia

Dear Mummy (and Daddy),
    I've just arrived in America and it is a truly remarkable place! The first thing they gave me was a flag and a subway map so that I could find my way. It was such a big help but quite hard to carry.
Fortunately, "Middle Village" was clearly marked, right here in the middle of Queen's County. (I have not yet seen the Queen, but I will let you know when I do. I am told that Brooklyn is the King's County, so she may be visiting him there today.)
    As soon as I got to my new home, I got an enormous hug from my new
Mommy, and a courteous greeting by  a large brown dog. (I am not sure whether she likes me. I think I heard her mumble
"oh, ANOTHER bear" under her breath.)
    But that isn't at all important, Mummy, because I have the BEST NEW FRIEND in the WORLD!!!!! His name is Amos and he comes from New England, which is somewhere north of here. He didn't  explain what made it newer than the  England that I come from, but he's very well-travelled and assures me he can  show me all kinds of places from  Vermont to Toronto to Minneapolis to Virginia... oh, and lots of other places that I forgot.
    Amos gave me a red, white and blue sweater which he says will be very patriotic. It is also warm, so I am glad to have it. Tomorrow he wants to take me sight-seeing, and he will even let me use his CREDIT CARD and his camera! Amos explained that since American currency is confusing, he
will keep track of the paper money. That is fine for me. He has a backpack so he can keep track of all these things better than I can right now.)
    Amos is very well-read, too. He carries his dictionary always, so he will never be surprised by a new word. He says I may need it to help me understand that this kind of English is not always the same as
the kind I have been speaking before now.
    Oh, I must run because Amos says that it is time for vegetarian pizza, and that if we aren't quick, the dog will get most of it.
    Thanks ever so much for sending me  here, Mummy! I know I shall be very happy with Amos and all of the other bears!
                Yours Truly,
                Homer


 
         

Wynter,
and some new mawspaws friends now have this fantastic view of his new home, which is a guest pension in Saalbach, Austria. Wynter sits in the hall in the summer by a vase of flowers without his scarf. In the winter-time he is part of the winter decorations.
