The possibilities are endless.
Share your ideas with us, send us the clothing that holds a special place in your heart, and we'll craft a unique, handmade bear—a tangible hug you can hold forever. Let us help you create a piece of comfort and love that will last a lifetime.
- 12" Tall
It's the perfect size to be your child's best friend, ready for cuddles every night.
- Hidden Zipper on the back
We know how important it is to keep your child's favorite cuddle buddy clean, which is why our Teddy features a hidden zipper on the back, allowing you to easily remove the filling and wash it as often as needed.

We take up to 7 days to create your one-of-a-kind teddy bear with care and attention to detail. The sooner you send your outfits, the sooner we can start making your teddy!
- Signature Upon Delivery
Once it's ready, your item will be shipped via USPS Ground or USPS Priority, and every teddy will require a signature upon delivery for added security.
- Delivery Times 3 - 5 Business Days
Depending on your location (from North Carolina), it will take 3 to 5 business days for your teddy to arrive after it leaves our studio.

ORDERING IS VERY SIMPLE!

Add your teddy bear to your cart and complete your order. Be sure to include your personalized information so we can customize the foot pads—choose your baby’s name, date of birth, and weight to make this keepsake extra special.
- Step 2: Prepare your outfits for shipping
Choose the outfits you want us to use. For newborn clothes, we recommend at least 10 items. The more you send, the more colorful and unique your teddy will be! For the single color Teddy we recommend one L and up t-shirt. We'll return any unused items unless you request otherwise.
Once you've selected the outfits, pack them in a padded envelope or box and ship them to the address below. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE THE ORDER CONFIRMATION PAGE INSIDE YOUR BOX to ensure we match everything to your order.
