Don't forget these guys, not quite as cute but still kinda popular in a weird way..

I have had this lavender scented TeddyBear on my nightstand for years .... and he still smells so good.

Love teddy bears.
I bought my daughter one just like this when she was about 3 years old.
She is now 63 and she still has him but he missing an ear now.
We never can remember how that happened

My oldest teddy bear which I still have in our collection, is 58 years old. A bit skint of fur in few places and is missing one eye.

Did you know that these were made in honour of USA president Teddy Roosevelt?

I just love Teddy Bears and Teddy Bear shops, or a woman who collects Teddy Bears. We had a Steiff Bear shop in Arundel where I live which has hit the wallet a few times over the years.

Yes I did. Mine is made from a copy of the original pattern. Thinking of doing another with some white velvet I have.

I adore teddy bears and have a few. When we were dating, my husband gave me a handmade Italian music box that played "The Teddy Bear's Picnic". I still have it, and it's one of my most treasured possessions.

I still have mine, a present when I was one year old. Less part of its nose which the dog bit off. And still have the little wooden chair my Father made. Cute what.

Got monkeys on the bedroom curtains but guess they do not count.

I used to crochet teddy bears to send overseas. Wish I'd kept one for myself.
