Incense and candles, I’m pretty sure that by just watching these here pictures, you can already smell the perfumes and fragrances. Strange what colours and can do to your senses. It is something that Lise-Laura is very aware of. She is  aware of many things. Lise-Laura carries in her, many places and experiences. And in bear-circles, she might be called wise.

This lady is not at all shy of sharing her knowledge with other bears. In time, even you might learn something from her.

A puff of air,
the swing of spring.
Breezy and fair,
a swan’s wing.
“Ponpons, hair”,
Sinta sing!
All I can bear,
the cutest thing.

Sorry, a bear can only experience so much before turning into a proper poet. Oh well, back to the honey jar. In order to avoid any more of these extreme niceties, I’m just going to say to myself: “Sinta, gal, with that fluff of fur on your forehead, you could be a wookie.” Sigh, who am I fooling? -Bart the Bearded Bard

Do you know Dot? You think you do, but you might not. This Dot is sometimes called Stip by her friends, you know.. Dutch for Dot. Anyway, Dot Dot Dot, I could eat you here and now, but I’m not going to. I’m not that kind of bear, see?

Did you know that Dot is quite artistic in a sense? Last year she painted her mother on a canvas twice her own size. Quite an accomplishment, might I add. Mother however, was not entertained, she had to wash herself for almost 3 hours until she looked like a proper unpainted bear again.

Oh silly Dot, you are!

Wait, Dot.. Is that paint on your ears? Nah, it’s probably me and my bad eyes…

We actually wonder if Demmy is one of our own. She has that outlandish look on her face, you know? A nose to put into your business and a couple of those piercing eyes that look straight into you. On top of that, the boys can’t stop looking at her, sheesh! In that respect she is definitely one of ours, I must agree. It’s just… she makes me feel envious in a way, she has that flair not many bears have.

Demmy is about 40 cm tall

“Imagine you’re standing in a museum, looking at one of the old Dutch masters. Those dramatic skies, billowing clouds like the giant heads of bears from forgotten ages, hugging the near infinitely flat polders.

Faces of people long gone, but still lively and riddled with the seemingly endless detail of brush strokes come to life.

My, she really can get carried away by such things. The wonder in Aliza’s eyes, ever gazing into inspiring things around here sometimes gives me shivers. And that’s a good thing, it inspires me as well.

The Big Brown Aliza is ready to go out. She wears a brown linen embroided dress with brown satin ribbon and her favorite chique satin blouse with beautiful antique lace collar.

Aliza is about 50 cm tall.

Whaat?

You’re not going to share with everybody what’s in your handbag either, would you? See?

“Like a fiery sunset, or lava!”, she said about her colours.
It was hard to get in touch with Raphaelle, but no problem getting her to talk. She raved about how bland other bears look sometimes. “Look, I’m not going to sit and wait until something interesting happens. Live life, I say!”, she stood up and showed us her exquisitely designed dress. Yes, she’s definitely got the looks. “Any day could be your last!”, and with that, she turned around and left the room.

We were baffled. But soon enough we realized it was not necessarily Raphaelle’s drama, but her boundless passion that moves everybody. What a girl!

Before you say anything; Yes, it is a coincidence. It might have been snowing for a while now, but our Sweet Marie always looks like this. And, no, she’s not related to that other Mary you might know, but she’d happily play out the role if you like. Why? Because this here little candy-cake is just as sweet and cuddly as she looks.

(It must be a romantic time of the year, so many lovable bears! I mean, even more lovable than usually. Is that even possible?)

By golly! It’s a good thing the weather’s so cold out here. Otherwise I’d probably melt within minutes seeing this doll of a bear! (No pun intended). Oh no! I just discovered the cutest thing ever.

A regular, if a bit posh, bear-girl. Well-dressed and mannered. Who wouldn’t like this little lady. But “Freddie”, isn’t that a boy’s name?
I guess a little explanation would be appropriate. A while ago, she was chatting and laughing with some bear-boys. One of the boys suddenly noticed her furry collar. The other boys figured it had to be real fur and started joking about it. They imagined it was her pet mouse Freddy’s little white coat. Oh dear! That was rude! She started to boil in anger, but smart as she is, quickly cooled down again. You know, boys will stay boys and she laughed with them.  The name stuck, they still call her Freddy, but she doesn’t mind. She even likes the humor in it.

Freddie is about 39 cm tall.

Sometimes you stumble upon one of those priceless treasures. The moment you look at it, you know it’s going to change you.

It happened to Mabel, she was cleaning up the attic when, suddenly, she saw that big and dusty old suitcase. It was as if it was looking at her, saying: “Open me! Open me!”
It was filled to the brim with her granny’s lace collection she had been expanding since she was just a girl.
Mabel was rich!
Immediately she started draping the stuff all over her body, layer upon layer of nostalgia-loaded fabric, until she could barely carry herself downstairs.
And that’s kind of where this story ends; the suitcase is now empty, she still wears it all. And, boy, does she love it! (She’s pretty sure you like it too)
