I started making teddy bears after having worked with dolls' houses and miniatures for some years.  I have always been very fond of various kinds of hand crafts. One day I felt, that I had to try making a teddy bear, which was one thing I had never done before. One bear lead to another - and I have been making bears ever since! After one year I went to an international  show and I found that people wanted to buy my bears. This has brought a whole new dimension into bear making, and I enjoy it. My bears are mostly one-of-a-kind as I want to give each bear a unique personality.
