Hello, I'm Sandra Marie, the face behind "Bear Hugs Originals".  Welcome to my page.   This year is my 30th anniversary creating and designing bears, so keep an eye out for some exciting things throughout the year!  All of my creations are 100% handmade using my own patterns I design from my own sketches.  Every single creation I design takes me several days, sometimes weeks, to complete as I put all my heart and soul into each and every one.  I hope you enjoy the bears I have created exclusively for this show.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at bearhugsoriginals@gmail.com 

 

Warmest Bearhugs,

Sandra Marie, xx
