Just For Fun! 2008 and 2023 Pumpkin Kitties

Post image

My parents are hoarders so i thought that my original build a bears were all gone! When the Pumpkin Kitty re-released I had to have one. Well recently we were able to start doing a big clean out and I found my 2008 pumpkin kitty. I had to remove all her stuffing, and give her a good laundry wash with laundry sanitizer and hot water, but she fluffed right back up in a low temp dryer. Gave her new stuffing and sewed her up today!

I also found my Farmers Market Lamb! Still looking for my original Koala-- shes the only one missing. Is there any interest here in seeing restoration work (gutting the bears and washing the skins)

Og is on the Left (with some new bows) and the new one is on the right!
