When we lose a loved one, it is a heartbreaking experience and we don’t always know how to express our sense of loss. Grieving is an individual process for everyone and it may feel like the overwhelming emotions are never going to go away. One way to try and keep the memory of your loved one alive and fresh in your mind is by purchasing your very own keepsake bear, which the team at Grin & Bear sensitively design with input from our bereaved customers. They often ask us to use items of the beloved’s clothing and are designed to be kept as keepsakes for generations.
What is a keepsake bear?
As we have already mentioned, grief is difficult to process for many people and we all express these emotions differently. However, keeping the memories alive in your mind is an important way of acknowledging how much you miss your loved one. A beautifully crafted keepsake bear is one way of doing this, and will provide you with the most perfect bespoke teddy bear for you and your family to cherish forever and maintain a reassuring physical bond. Our keepsake bears are the perfect reminder of the special times you enjoyed with your loved one and will quickly become one of your most beloved possessions.
How do we create the memory bears?
At Grin & Bear, our keepsake bears are usually created by using old garments, such as a t-shirt, shirt or pyjamas to dress the bear in. This design will not only be completely unique and sentimental to you, but it allows you to hold onto your loved one in a different way, keeping their memories alive and sharing new ones with them through your wonderful homemade teddy bear. The memory bear will help you feel like you are still with them physically, keeping the spirit of that person alive, whilst reusing garments that mean something special and hold great memories.
It is completely up to you which of the garments are used, as we have worked on a variety of keepsake bears for people – it can be old shirts, silk scarves or T-shirts; however, most recently we have been contacted by two sisters asking us to create a keepsake teddy for each of them using their father’s shirts to turn into smaller outfits for the teddy bear themselves, so they are dressed in the same clothing as the person who passed away. However, no matter what design you would like, our keepsake bears can be lovingly handmade from almost any item of clothing you choose and is the perfect way to treasure special clothes that you just can’t donate or part with.
