Barney, Pedro and Candice
I have finally find some free time to update my blog =)
There seems to be soooo many things to do but so little time, i really wish i could have more time for myself...
I love weekends, both days are the only free time i can make my bears - 100% focus!!!
Here are the latest 3 bears that have been made which supposed to be ready 2 weeks ago. Hahah... i need more time!
This time round i tried needle felting! It was really cool.. but kinda time consuming but worth while! I have needle felted a carrot for Barney, a heart shaped candy for Candice, eye lids for Pedro (I think is not yet perfect, i'll need more practising) and designs felted onto Pedro's collar and hat.
Barney the bunny (My first male bunny!) 7.5"
Pedro the Mexican Bear! 9"
Candice 6.5"

Wayneston Babies - Jerry 5.5"
I have been thinking for quite some time to name a new edition of my bears.
I have finally got a name for these smaller bears size 5-6" inch by naming them Wayneston Babies. Smaller miniature (if i create in the future) will call Wayneston Minis.
This is the 2nd Waynestonbabies, Jerry. The 1st baby is just a few post below baby panda Gabbi.
Here are some images of Jerry. He will be available in my Etsy online shop =)

Celebrating Wayneston Bears 1st Anniversary!
I am proud to announce Wayneston Bears is 1 years old! Woah, time flies... I could never have imagined myself making bears and now... it’s 1 year old!!!
Its a difficult path to become a bear artist, there are so many hurdles and difficulties that I have had to face... every time I looked back, I smiled and said 'it's worth it!' I would like to say Bear Making has changed my life!!! There are so many nice people around me giving me a push to make this possible, if not I might have given up...
I am glad that I’ m still pursuing my dream to become a toy designer, maybe right now as a bear artist you would say it's totally different! But from my point of view, its still considered a small little part of achievement that I would like to conquer... Toys are too vague... soft toys, designer toys, legos, barbie dolls, Bandai, Tomy... etc, too many to define! Bear artist are just so exclusive =) They cannot be mass produced, this makes them special =)
Special thanks to my teacher Emen Chen who taught me the art of bear making =) Without him I wouldn’t have been able to fulfill my dream, get to know so many nice people around me, he is the greatest man I have ever know. I hope that I will become a good artist to repay his kindness.
Special thanks to Fabian Song, another teacher whom I have always called my grand master, pioneer bear artist in Singapore. Although he hasn't taught me any skills on bear making, he gave me some feedback on how I can improve my bears. If there is a chance, I would love to learn more tips from him.
Special thanks to my lovely mum, who gives me support, teaches me how to use a sewing machine and sew the lovely clothes for my bears.
Special thanks to my friend Katie, who purchased my first bear in Etsy =) She has given me lots of encouragement and this makes me feel warmly. I know there is always someone out there giving me moral support. Thanks for the gift you sent me, I really love it =)
Special thanks to Urenda, for giving me a chance to display my bears in A Bear Place =) I will continue to make better bears for your lovely shop.
Special thanks to Joanne. You might not know this... you are the source of encouragement too. Before I started bear making, I saw your bears and they really really touched my heart, I wanted to be somebody like you =) your work inspires me each time I see them. I was fascinated the first time when you commented on my work in facebook, the feelings could not be described, I felt noticed...
Thank you, you are a star =)
Bear making has given me soooo much... I love everyone that I know =)
Wishing everyone good health and good fortune =)
