Description

Our gorgeous Weighted Memory Bear is a really timeless way to treasure the clothes you can't bear to part with. Made from baby grows or clothes that you want to keep and treasure, each bear will be a lasting reminder of those precious times and will quickly become one of your most beloved possessions.

Your bear will be lovingly handmade by our team, ensuring each bear is completely unique to you. Choose your favourite items from when they were young - make sure you send us enough material according to our guidelines. If the baby grows are premature or newborn size, we’ll definitely need the maximum. You can leave us special instructions at the checkout so we know which are your favourite items, and we’ll do our best to include them how you wish.

Size

  • One size. Approximately 35-40cm Tall. Size may vary depending on the weight and size of baby grows sent to us. 
  • We suggest you send 8 - 10 baby grows or 2 - 6 items of older child’s clothing. 

This is a large animal keepsake, we need at least two of the 8-10 items to be slightly longer clothing (e.g. a bigger baby grow, a little blanket etc) as some of the pattern pieces are quite big. If you only have smaller items that is fine, but please be aware we may need to use more seams).

Adult Clothing: We only need one decent-sized item of adult clothing per animal, but people usually prefer to send more. 2 - 3 items per animal is ideal, 5 is the maximum we would suggest.

Please see the label on your finished keepsake for accurate washing guidelines. 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. The pattern is by LoveKeepCreate Ltd.

PLEASE NOTE: The weighted bear pattern has changed as of 1st October 2021. The arms and legs of the bear are no longer attached with joints. If you have previously ordered from us the bear will look very similar in appearance the arms and legs will just function slightly differently.

More Details & How It Works

There can be a real variation in the appearance of the animals depending upon the clothing that we receive. Please ensure that you do look through the full product photo picture selection in order to get a good idea of how the appearance can vary.

Once you’ve placed your order, you’ll receive an email telling you how to send us your 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.

Our images are to display what can be achieved with your clothes. All of our bears use the same pattern and can be made from any clothes that you send us, whether baby, child or adult.

Code:

We can make your animal weigh the same as your child did when they were born, up to a maximum of 10lb.

Weighting is only available on certain keepsakes, as shown in the table below. Where it is available, you must select the larger size.

Please be aware that weighted keepsakes will appear a lot bigger than they do in the main product photos and will generally have much chubbier looking limbs. As with all the keepsakes, generally the older/more worn the clothing, the more stretched it will look on the final item, but this is particularly so with weighted keepsakes. It does not mean that they are overstuffed.

Memory bear of my daughter’s first outfitsReviewed by Nicolakredpath on 18 Jul 2024

The bear arrived promptly and was packaged well with the bear in a blue cotton bag. A perfect way to remember the first few weeks with my daughter!

Perfect!Reviewed by Vicki.george on 10 May 2023

Although bigger than i expected, the amazing seamstresses have created the most perfect reminder of all the little clothes my daughter wore. We chose to have the bear weighted, and it made me realise how big she actually was. I had considered getting this teddy made for the past 4 years and im so glad we finally got it done. The teddy sits perfectly with the other two I ordered using my late parents clothes. Thank you

AmazingReviewed by Lovekeepcreate on 16 Apr 2023

We are delighted with the exceptional quality and appearance of the bear. Its impressive craftsmanship has left my wife and me amazed. The seams align flawlessly, despite one side being stretchy fabric and the other not. The inclusion of pockets from the clothing on the bear's ears is a charming detail that we love. We appreciate the meticulous care and attention you have devoted to creating such a wonderful product. Thank you very much
