We often feel low or sad because of the problems we are facing in our lives.
We should never lose hope and we should be optimistic in any situation, every moment is precious. Every downfall is a lesson and any uprise is a blessing. Well, we agree that there are some exceptions but to sum it all up, life is a blessing. Despite being said every time, we should cherish little things in our life.
This lady knows how to be happy, Mary Macinnes, who started to make Teddy bears from old clothes of people’s loved ones, so they can keep their precious memories with them.
Some people wish to preserve the childhood memories of their children while some want to keep memories of those who passed away. Some people are just away from their loved ones for some time, so they keep their teddy bears with them.
Mary, spends 5-6 hours planning, cutting, creating & sewing each bear and it’s all well worth it!
She started at just 21, and now she has completed for nearly six years in this business.

‘It can be emotionally draining some days,’ she tells us.
‘Recently I had a 37-year-old man pleading with me to make his two daughters aged 10 & 12 bears before Christmas. He insisted on paying in full and gave me £10($12) extra asking me to post them to his girls.
‘It turned out he has terminal cancer and won’t see Christmas. I cried the whole time I cut out, sewed and stuffed those two little bears.’
She says: ‘I love seeing their faces take on a character and I’m loving life. I enjoy meeting my customers when they collect bears – 80% burst into tears.
‘I think that’s because garments arrive as sad reminders of the past then it’s almost as if new life is breathed into them. They become something that’s much more acceptable to cuddle and talk to, and the feedback is they definitely can help the grieving process.’
