The Creation of Sunshine Bear

We like to get involved in the creation of our products ~ from tweaking existing designs to developing completely new designs, and from knowing what goes into making them to actually learning how to make them.

For our new series of bears which we'll be introducing in time for Christmas, we decided to pick up the needle and thread and sew one ourselves under the guidance of multi-talented Sunisa, our new-found bear maker who's a graduate in fine art, a florist and an entrepreneur. (Wow!!!)

The reason we chose to learn how to make this bear was because this particular bear is COMPLETELY HAND-STITCHED FROM HEAD TO TOE.

Since this bear is Sun-isa's creation and it has a bright and cheerful look with a sense of curiosity and wonderment, we're calling it our SUNSHINE BEAR.

SOCIAL MISSION FOR SUNSHINE BEAR
With the bear making skills that we now have, we'll be sending Sunshine Bear out on some new social missions we have in mind.

The Story of 'Creation': Sunisa's three wise bears waiting for
a miracle about to happen.

Lo and behold! A new bear is taking shape.
New bear is now able to sit with its head, arms and legs
finally attached to its body. In the background is Sunisa.
With ears, eyes, nose and a smile and ribbon added, new
Sunshine bear finally comes to life.
New Sunshine bear is the centre of attraction as everyone wants
to know the story of his creation.
