Memories...

My friend Gina over at Florrie and Jack runs a fab little business making Memory Bears. These are friendly little bears lovingly made from your baby's babygros or clothes that hold special meaning or memories for you.

I loved looking at all Amelia's little babygros and remembering how small she was when she wore them or remember special event she wore them to and Gina takes these items and makes them part of a bear that you can keep on display rather than in bin bags in the loft (where mine were).

Heres what Amelia's bear looks like. I'm currently saving Ayrton's suits up ready to send of for his bear. 

The little elephant on the left side in included because every time she wore the suit Daniel would always say "hello elephant" to her. The spot bits are from the top she wore to Grandma and Grandpas 50th wedding anniversary, where they renewed their vows at the church they were married in when Amelia was just four weeks old. And the other items just because she looked so beautiful in them. Gina is great and working with you to see which items you like best and want to feature most prominently. She evens add a lovely personalisation of your choice.

Part of the experience is digging out the clothes and looking over them, I don't want to rush the process of getting Ayrton's bear done as he's still growing out of some of my favourite babygros which is just as well as there is quite a waiting list for these very popular bears.
