Solo ~ Another baby black bear!!

I seem to be focusing on black bears lately.  I had some new black synthetic fur that I just had to try and here is the result...

 

I created Solo to look like a black bear cub that has just recently opened his eyes.

 

Solo is available on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170573597929.  I hope you can visit his auction to see more cute photos and all his details.

Hugs,

Our mountain

I hope you enjoy this view of our mountain taken just up the hill from our place.  This was taken in the summer.  I love this mountain - it has so many moods!

5" Black Bear Cub!

It's been a busy couple of weeks!  Yesterday I finished my newest creation... a miniature baby black bear named Saud by his new mom :o)  He will be traveling to Qatar!  I hope you enjoy seeing him!

Even though these little bears take a huge amount of time and energy, they are so enjoyable to create... I love seeing their personalities come out as they take shape.  I also enjoy hearing what you think of them so please comment if you have a chance :o)

Hugs,

12" Black Bear Cub!

I'm so happy to introduce Theodore to you!  He is a sweet black bear cub created from black faux mink fur.  I hope you enjoy seeing him :o)

Theodore has been adopted, but I am taking commissions.

~ Shadow ~ a recycled mink Pomeranian puppy

Good afternoon!  I'm excited to introduce my newest creation... Shadow - a miniature Pomeranian puppy!  She is available on ebay at http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170566411470&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT.  You are invited to visit her there to see many more photos and all her details.  I hope you enjoy seeing her!

Winter

It warmed up a little and now the snow has mostly vanished.  It'll be back soon though. 

I wish I was more of a winter person... the kind that enjoys skiing or hiking through the woods in snowshoes.  But I'm more a sit by the fire with hot cocoa and a good book type.  The nice thing about winter is it gives me plenty of time to create.

I'm just finishing up my little Pomeranian puppy and am also working on something to go with her... I'm looking forward to sharing her with everyone!

Hugs,

First Snow!

It snowed this morning!  As much as I don't look forward to bringing in firewood, dealing with mounds of wet, snowy kids clothes, and the early darkness... I do love the beauty of the first real snow. 

~ Tetley ~ available on ebay!

Hi everyone!  I've decided to list Tetley on ebay today.  I hope you will visit his auction to see more photos of him.  http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170563451138

I finally figured out how to use a frame in my auction - yay!  I hope this makes it easier for everyone to see my auctions :o)

What am I working on now?

Some were wondering what I'm creating right now, so I thought I'd let everyone know that I'm working on a miniature Pomeranian created from recycled mink fur.  Ever since we adopted our Mini Blue Pomeranian this summer, I've been wanting to create one.  Our little girl is named Penny and is such a sweetheart!  This is Penny when we first got her...

This is her now....

What I was wondering is... what is your favorite name for a Blue (Black) Pomeranian?  I may use the most popular name to name the puppy I'm creating.

Hugs,
Melisa

~ Bao Shen ~ a commissioned baby panda

He's done!  I'm so excited to share photos of Bao Shen!  He took me longer than I expected, but I think the time I took paid off.  I hope you do too!

"Bao Shen"  means Baby Smile.  There are more photos of him on his web page at http://melisas-bears.com/Bao_Shen.html .

~ New Commissioned Panda - almost done!~

It's been a crazy couple of weeks around here.  End of school term and with home schooling it's a busy time.  I've been concentrating on finishing up a new tiny and realistic baby panda.  Those details take soooo much time but I'm very excited about how this little one is turning out.  I'll be posting photos soon... hopefully later today :o)
