Kept by Heart

Stories of hand-stitched memory

Read how families have found comfort in their custom memory bears crafted from their own sentimental clothing.

These are the words of people I will carry forever in my heart! To be trusted with such precious materials & memories is a gift. These testimonials are the encouragement I've collected along this journey & I'd like to share some of them with you. If your curious about having one made for yourself or a family member, I encourage you to listen to their words. I love my "Papa Bear!" I'd love for you to have one of your own, & these recipients can share with you, their thoughts on receiving their own bears.

Heartfelt Comfort

Keepsakes handled with care

Brenda on her Pink House Beach Money purchase

I truly enjoy listening to your stories and viewing photos of how you gift your bears to your loved ones! It has been an incredibly surprising part of my own healing journey, witnessing the comfort these bears bring to those I've been fortunate enough to see receive their keepsakes.
