This handmade memory bear is lovingly created from your most meaningful clothing—baby clothes from those fleeting early days or garments from a loved one you want to keep close. Each bear is a one-of-a-kind keepsake, thoughtfully sewn to preserve the memories stitched into every piece of fabric.
Designed to be both sentimental and practical, this memory bear isn’t meant to sit tucked away in a box. It’s made to be hugged, displayed, and cherished for years to come. Every bear is crafted slowly and intentionally in my home studio, with careful attention to detail and quality.
As a mother myself, I understand how irreplaceable these items are. Your clothing is handled with care, respect, and love from start to finish. From selecting which pieces work best together to sewing each seam with purpose, your memories are safe in my hands.
Whether you’re celebrating your child’s early years, honoring a loved one who has passed, or creating a meaningful gift for a mother, this memory bear offers a beautiful way to hold onto what matters most.
Creating your memory bear is a simple, thoughtful process designed to keep your experience easy and stress-free.
1. Place Your Order
Once your order is placed, you’ll receive instructions for sending your clothing items. This reserves your spot in my current creation schedule.
2. Send Your Clothing
You’ll ship your selected clothing items to me using your preferred carrier (USPS, UPS, or FedEx all work well). For baby items please include 10-12 items. For adult clothing please send 1-3 pieces. Please note, some pieces you send might not be used.
How to ship:
Place clothing in a clean, dry bag (zip-top or similar)
Pack securely in a shipping box or padded mailer
Include your order name or order number inside the package
Ship with tracking for peace of mind
Turnaround time begins once I receive your clothing, not at the time of purchase. I will confirm once I have your clothing pieces.
3. Creation Process
After your items arrive, I carefully plan, cut, and sew your memory bear. Each piece is thoughtfully placed to highlight special details like patterns, pockets, or small design elements whenever possible.
4. Your Bear Comes Home
Once complete, your finished memory bear is packaged with care and shipped back to you—ready to be hugged, displayed, and treasured. Please note, any scraps of fabric not used will be sent back in the package.
Clothing That Works Best
Baby onesies, sleepers, pajamas, burp cloths, or baby blankets
Cotton or cotton-blend shirts
Soft knit fabrics
Light to medium-weight materials
Multiple sizes or outfits (great for visual variety)
These fabrics are easier to work with and allow for a smooth, durable finish.
Clothing to limit
Very thick fabrics (jeans, heavy jackets, thick sweaters)
Slippery, thin, or delicate fabrics (bamboo, silk, chiffon, satin)
Heavily embellished items (sequins, beads, thick embroidery)
Stiff or leather materials
If you’re unsure whether an item will work, you’re always welcome to include it—I’ll assess everything once it arrives and use what’s best for the final piece.
Turnaround time begins when your clothing is received, not when the order is placed.
Because each memory bear is handmade and created one at a time, current turnaround times are listed at checkout and may vary depending on demand.
You’ll be kept informed throughout the process, and communication is always a priority.
