The Blissful Baker

Everyone harbours different hopes and dreams for the future. Some people take action when their plans and goals for the future have been decided upon; others just continue dreaming.

 

Regardless of who we are or where we were born, each and every one of us has our own potential, but without hard work and perseverance, this potential cannot be fully unleashed. It is therefore up to ourselves to discover our hidden talents!

I thus present Dear Bear's latest creation: The Blissful Baker, by teddy bear artist Elaine.
Her inspiration was drawn from a friend who is like a brother to us, who once mentioned in a conversation that his lifelong dream is to become a baker.

Even though it had seemed like a difficult dream to accomplish back then, he signed up for courses to try his hand at baking. Though faced with many challenges, all was forgotten when he saw the blissful looks on his family member's faces as they tasted his baking.

 

No matter what the outcome of a situation, giving something your all is what's most important (a habit which should be cultivated). Even if it was not the desired outcome, at least you tried your best.
 
"It is better to have tried and failed than to never have tried at all."
 
  

Dear Bear has had the honour of meeting many friends locally and from around the world. We gather more inspiration for our creations from the stories that have been shared with us!
 
We find happiness in our work by honing our skills and expanding our knowledge through it. This makes us want to share with others the value of this joy - of doing your best in whatever you undertake and having the feeling of bliss surge through you upon reaching self-fulfilment.
 
 
Here's to all our friends for not giving up on your dreams and goals, for success and happiness will always be there waiting for you!
 
~ Maggie

春來了~~

春來了作品 - 12cm


收到一位客人來信

想訂製熊熊給正在為生病所苦的友人

希望這是一份能陪伴'鼓勵對方的禮物

春來了~~

到處是櫻花盛開

.

.

黎明前的夜晚最是黑暗
初春前的冬天最是嚴寒

而櫻花為了真正綻放美麗的花朵

非經歷嚴寒的冬天不可!!

人生也是一樣

即便處在逆境'挑戰中就快撐不下去時

也決不可放棄

因為這正是要轉運的時候

!


願這熊熊帶給對方勇氣與希望

與你一起共戰

以絕對不輸的心

戰勝病魔

迎來勝利的春天
!

打盹的老奶奶

打盹的老奶奶 - 坐姿約13cm


前些天收到客人寄來的一張迷你搖椅

期待能為這張搖椅增添一位新主人


希望這隻熊熊彷彿像一位有年紀的老奶奶

坐在椅上打盹的神韻~


特別做了張布腳椅


好讓老奶奶的腳可以舒服又溫暖的放著^^


一邊做著她


也一直望著她 ..

好似看著自己的慈祥外婆


好懷念您阿!!!!


藉由泰迪熊作品

來紀錄年命中每一段過程


是那麼精彩又珍貴阿



也許..........


將來的某一天


我也會如同這隻打盹中的老奶奶


坐在搖椅上看著這些充滿回憶的作品


細細品味著~昨日的記憶

幸福角落

回顧這些年在這靠窗的小小角落裡

也創作了不少熊熊及完成一本"第一隻手縫泰迪熊"書


喜歡這裡的自然光線+小窗台

可以放些花花草草及心愛的熊熊們

很愛非洲堇的植物

但氣人的是花謝後從不曾在開過.....

所以就在熊身上開花囉^^


一些角落照片

.

做這隻小小熊時...心中好思念我最最最心愛的"may醬"

雖然已走10年...感覺你一直都在

好想能再親親你!抱著你!!!

最恐懼黑暗的夜晚了

無數次熬夜做熊時

看著你的照片心中就不再害怕

也是這樣順利完成許多帶給人幸福的熊熊

.

.

May醬,你永遠活在我心中

接下來

要繼續創作去囉~~~~~

Smile ^___^

Smile - 15cm


Good morning friends

!

喝杯咖啡要開始今天的工作囉

坐在桌前

第一眼看到的就是一個笑容

不覺自己也跟著笑了

用笑容開始這一天

今天會好事連連唷

人生不是有趣才笑的

而是笑了人生才變得有趣


照鏡子時別忘了給自己一個smile ^___^
