My First Keepsake Memory Bear

$ 175.00

RECYCLED: Save the memories your clothes hold

REMADE: Place your order, we send shipping instructions & order form, you send your clothes

REMEMBERED: Perfect for celebrating milestones, honoring loved ones, or simply to clear closet clutter


A keepsake that holds all the memories of when they were little- made entirely from their clothes.

Send us your baby's clothes and we'll create a memory bear to remember all those special moments: coming home outfit, receiving blanket, first steps, first holidays... Perfect way to keep those memories close to your heart.

Choose at least 8-12 baby-sized clothes (if preemie size, please send a few more) to make this heirloom bear. 

Finished bear measures approximately 17 inches tall with embroidered eyes and nose for added charm and safety (no plastic parts or buttons!). Allow 6-8 weeks to create your keepsake (+shipping time).

This memory bear does not include personalization. If you would like additional personalization, you can add ADD PERSONALIZATION HERE. 

 

NOTE: This bear is $25 more than the Original Memory Bear due to the additional labor required to piece together smaller size clothes.
