So it took me until Tuesday to open what we bought at the Build a Bear Workshop
Yes, that is two bears
The bears are gifted in a box, that has been sketched to look like little houses. I imagine the idea is that the boxes can be an activity in themselves - colour them in or decorate them.
Oh, that is not one of the bears.
Build a Bears, have Build a Bear buddies.
Isn't it cute, lamby
You can't have too much sheep, or goats for that matter
Sombrita are you in there?
Build a Bear Buddies have their own wardrobe as well
This is a dragon onesie, the bears have a similar outfit option - I think this is supposed to be sleepwear. The spikes will glow in the dark.
I had seen this outfit in my weekly browse pre-Monday 25th, and thought it would fit Horsey
But if it was meant to fit a Buddy, I had better find that out too.
nnnnnnnnnn, inhale, nnnnnn
Oh, thats for the back leg,
Ta da. Lamby's ears are lower on the head then the Buddy Bears, so the ear holes don't match up
The velcro for the opening in the back, kept snagging in his lamby fleece, and there is a little hole under the dragon tail for the teddy tail.
The gift for its intended
Now for the bears................
I forgot to take a lot of pictures of the bears in store, but they ranged from plain colours, to rainbows, green, characters, just take a look at the website
http://www.buildabear.com.au/ for all the options.
I wanted a bear to dress. part of the idea was to see if the clothes would fit My dolls, Pippa suggested that maybe a plain colour would be best, as the other options were way too busy, and the outfits plus the colours of the bear fur would be too much
Sneaky, or sensible, we had already decided from the website who would be coming home.
Two?
Pippa informed me that bears usually have twins
and well there are outfits suitable for girls and for boys, and
so we have Alex and Aleisha
after being stuffed, they got a little heart put inside them, and their unique bar code, the opening is closed, and then to the instore computer to register them. If the bears are lost, their unique bar code will identify their owner and where they belong, hehehe, bit like the pound for stray dogs. They come with a birth certificate.
And well whats a dressable bear without an outfit?
Undies to cover a bear bottom. A little hole in the back of all things for the sake of tails.
Aleisha got a pair of floral girly pants, Alex a pair of tighty whities
T-shirt, why not a birthday shirt for your birthday
A denim skirt
tail
Skinny leg jeans
tail, the undies can be pulled up so you see the band, that's the trend isn't it?
We did want shoes but they had sold out of the ones I liked (just a pair of sensible sneakers).
and well, a little bit birthday overboard
a hat. a bow tie, a felt birthday card, and a sash
Happy Bearthday to You
Happy Bearthday to You
Happy Bearthday Alex and Aleisha
Happy Bearthday to You
