I had great fun making bears for both Mrs Maine International 2011, Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino, and for Mrs Texas International 2011, Aneglique Hoover.
The pageant bears each wear a crown and the one for Mrs Texas International 2011 was made from a photo that was provided me. The dress was made to match, a little mini-me in bear format.
If you have any exciting moment in your life that you would like to hold fast, contact me and let me have a photo of you in your gown/costume or whatever is relevant. The bear can also be personalized with names and dates.
