Absolutely stunning! It would be fun to have her ringside at a show, just brushing away

Artists may only sell a few soft scuptures each year. I made mohair teddy bears and did bear/ doll shows for years. It is truely art. My bears we all my own patterns. Everyone was one of a kind, all hand work. Handblown glass eyes imported from Germany. Hardwood joints, The best mohair (often hundreds of dollars a yard). Glass pellets and stuffing to give a real weighty feel. Real leather and suede for paw pads and so on. My Bears sold for around $400.00 each and like most artists you have to have a 'real job' too. Now my bear making is a hobby.

Sounds amazing! Any pic of your bears to admire?

I was like "Dang that is one expensive Yorkie!"

Until my stupid self actually read the text..

Then it turned to
"Dang that is on expensive stuffed animal!"

Did you all see the part about the artist? She was born with only one hand! Amazing!

That was just too mean ...I am looking at the pictures thinking "Christmas" presents for my two girls.....

then I saw the prices.

I am not saying it's not worth it but so out of my league

They are very beautiful and well made. Sprinkles on her site is mine. She was a gift from a very special friend a few years ago. She is a very pretty girl, but I actually love my Dainty Dogs from Kim much more. I guess because they are made after my own babies.

I totally agree with every one else. If I were going to pay that much for a Yorkie it better be breathing. Can you imagine spending that much $$ and not even getting any kisses for it???? lol
