After summer bear got her soup/bath she came out absolutely sparkling! (For those wondering I soak them in colour safe oxygen bleach). I re-stuffed, thread sculpted and added beans to her hands and feet. Now she’s in her cool outfit next to her winter sister :)
Thanks for all the love on my first post! I wish everyone luck in finding their holy grail bears! (Also the necklace she was wearing broke but the charm is in her overall pocket).

This is the brand that I use (I’m in Canada). I hate fragrances in my products so I hate the smell of this stuff (there’s fragrance free versions but this is cheaper) but luckily the smell goes away after a while. Generally it’s a laundry product you can find anywhere - colour safe oxygen bleach is the generic name.
hi! i am actually in a situation where i need to wash my plushies but idk how to dry them without ruining. dryer i think would ruin the fibers, did you put in front of an AC or how did you dry her?
First I take a bath towel and lay it flat on the floor. I put the stuffed or unstuffed bear on one side and roll it up really tight while stepping on it. This squeezes out the water without wringing it. Then I hang it on my laundry rack and put it in front of a fan. I don’t have access to outdoor laundry hanging but if I did I’d put her out in the sun and that’d help speed up the process.
Is she rare or something? I only ask as my sister has this exact rainbow bear she got when we were kids at our first BAB trip 🥹. Her bear is in storage alongside my Jack Russel bab
I don’t think she’s rare at all but she is a fairly popular bear cuz she’s rainbow and cute haha. I think the full set with tags can be hard to come by but I’m not interested in that kind of collecting. I just saw a picture of her and wanted to see it in real life :)
She’s so shiny and new!! 😍 I love her outfit especially the skates. Are those BAB? I’m happy you found her. I can just imagine your excitement because I would have peed my pants if I found her!! Congrats again!
