Our military keepsake bear is a lovely memento of your time in service, or to remember a loved one who you've lost too soon. We can use camouflage clothing or other items that you send us, or we can use our own. Either way, we can add various detailing such as regimental badges and rank slides.
As well as being made from your material, we can add personalised embroidery to the feet of your bear for an extra special touch. Your military memory bear will be handmade by our expert team of memory makers, ensuring you get a beautiful, unique bear that will be treasured forever.
Sizes
While our keepsakes can be machine washed at 40 degrees, we would recommend that they are hand washed and dried naturally. Do not tumble dry. The stuffing is 100% CE tested polyester.
As these can be delicate items, often made from very well-worn clothes, they can not be CE tested and therefore come with the following: Warning: This product is not suitable for persons under the age of 14 years. Pattern is by LoveKeepCreate Ltd.
More Details & How It Works
There can be a real variation in the appearance of the animals depending upon the clothing that we receive.
Once you’ve placed your order, you’ll receive an email telling you how to send us your clothes. Once we receive your clothes, it takes approximately eight weeks to get your finished keepsake back to you, unless you choose one of our Express Options at the checkout - we can make them in as little as one week. If there is a special date you need it for, please do make a note of this when you checkout or send in the clothes.
If you have got a lot of special requests and additions then, depending on the complexity, we may contact you to request an additional payment to cover the cost of making these.
