  i thought of spotlight too.

  they have to buy and make themselves.

  I nv walk in to see, i duno whether u can learn how to make bears from them or whatever. But I know u can design ur bear, as in, mix and match the clothes for the bear.

  eh hello all, very excited to see many helpful replies. as to how many bears i will plan to make, it's still early for me to decide as many details are yet to be planned.
  
  but more importantly, i hope to get at least some training on bear making by someone who has the know-how. if not, i cant imagine people like me who has failed art during sec sch times, making a bear.

  wtf i thought uwere talking about real bears. teddy bears are useless. real bears are totally awesome, they can rip off your face. we need more real bears so they can go around ripping people's faces off, now that would be so cool, right? need more bears!!!
