After the original Lily bear... I have the pleasure of owning the first of Kays bears, Beth bear, so beautifully made, holds such happy memories, a wonderful idea. Thank you x
Cant thank you enough for the wonderful memories pieces together to create phoebe bear... it has pride of place in our little girls room. Each bear is individual and as unique as the fabric its made from full is of sentiment and created with love.
Weve recently had a memory bear in memory of a dear uncle this is providing great comfort to his devistated wife. Kay made her feel at ease handing over precious clothing. there arnt enough words to describe what Kay creates x I just no how special they all to our family.
Thank you again Kay x heres to more memorys being created from old to treasure forever x
Absolutely amazing, was definitely the best thing I could have done with my grandmas clothes. The bears we had made can sit on show as opposed to clothes in a closet. In doing this I can look at the bears with happiness rather than looking a pile of clothes that my grandma used to wear. Thank you so so much xxx
I have had 2 bears from the fabulous Kay at Memory Bears by Lily's Love. The first, made from army clothing was for my mum in memory of my dad who died a year ago. After speaking to Kay I got together a bag of clothes and delivered them to her. We sat down and talked about what bits could be used where. The result is amazing and the bear now sits in pride of place next to my dads chair at home. The 2nd bear was for a happier occasion, the Christening of my god daughter. This one was commissioned as a surprise for her parents and once again after delivering a bag of clothes I sat down with Kay and discussed the options. Kay listened to my ideas and of course brought her own creative thoughts to the table. The result is truly amazing, she even added a photo of the baby on the label along with date and place of the event. Kay is a true genius and her bears are unique and original. I would highly recommend these lovely souvenirs to anyone. xx
