Buddies

Two of my favorite teddy bears from a collection of antique bears. I found them for sale together on ebay several years ago, and just had to have them! They are each about 100 years old. I don't know how long they have been together, but the character they acquired from lots of hugs and time is very appealing. :-)

Have a wonderful week ahead, my friends!

Thank you so much, Marj! I have such a large collection of teddies as well, but like you had to stop collecting them due to space. I have kept only the special ones like these little guys. ;-)
