Iced Raptor Makes - Keepsakes and Commissions

School is ending in 3 weeks for the summer and for lots of you, you'll be saying goodbye to your school and moving up to a bigger school!

✨ You could preserve your old uniform and memories in a memory bear! ✨

Bears are £35 each, not including post or packaging, and Lions are £45 each.

Got a favourite animal? Ask me about potential patterns too!

I had the pleasure of painting these two beautiful pups recently ❤️🐾

They are watercolour and I had the best time cuddling the subjects beforehand (and after too in Harper's case!)

They are A4 prints on watercolour paper and I am open for painting commissions at £40 for a single pet with your choice of flowers to border and £60 for a pair of subjects.

A5 paintings are £30 for a single pet and £45 for a pair.
A3 paintings are £60 for a single pet and £80 for a pair.

I'm open to any and all pets, with a 20% discount on white pets (as they use less paint!)

I have had the utmost pleasure of creating some very special memory blankets this month. They felt incredibly special and I know that they will bring some warm hugs and warm memories as they are snuggled under.

Thank you for trusting me with this project - I would love to do this again!

These blankets are just under 135 x 200cm - the size of a single duvet.

DM me for information about prices if you are interested in your own memory blankets. Base material cost per blanket starts at £25 for this size here.

I made some bunting from bedsheets and baby clothes for a wonderful customer~

Bunting is £3 per triangle, additional £8 fee minimum for bunting that is made from any material not provided by yourself 🪡🧵🦖

🐻 PRICING INFORMATION 🐻

Each beautiful bear costs £35 when using all of your own chosen clothing.

This includes my offer to pick-up the clothes chosen to make them, dropping off the bear, stuffing, eyes and nose, and finishing touches.

I am also currently offering a free small scrap heart with each bear to help prevent waste of leftover fabric.

I recommend 4 different fabrics for a truly patchwork bear, with at least one of the pieces being roughly A4-sized to accommodate the pattern piece sizes. However, a very sweet bear can be made with two different fabrics or one medium to large sized shirt. For children's clothes, more is better; I will send any unused clothes back to you!

Depending on demand and the size of your order, please allow a turnover of 5 working days from your pick-up time to complete the bear and return it to you. I will discuss pick-up and drop-off times, as well as any design ideas you have before starting the bear, of course.

Payments made by PayPal or bank transfer.

Please do ask any questions and don't hesitate to send me a message about the process!

Please do also ask about other animal patterns!

I have had the absolute honour and pleasure of creating these beautiful bears this month. They're waiting to go home and are so soft and cuddly.

I hope that holding them can bring back precious memories to remember fondly and that giving them a squeeze feels like a special hug from up above 💜💜💜

Hoping everyone has had a fantastic start to the new year! I've had the amazing opportunity to start the new year working on a very special set of bears.

Wishing you all a great end to the week!

This pattern is called Larry the Lion by FunkyFriendsFactory on Etsy. Feel free to take a look at their collection of patterns!

I currently have these gorgeous lions available!

These two lions were made from precious baby clothes that the mother of wanted as a memory of her two beautiful boys.

Each lion is made of a variety of baby grows, leggings and dungarees, then stuffed with a mix of the leftover scraps and polyester filling. The scraps are cut small to work as filling so nothing goes to waste or landfill.

On Blue, I also used buttons from the clothes to give them eyes and a button detail on its tail!

Blue is also sporting a bow tie made from part of a dungaree set!

The lion pattern is called Larry the Lion from FunkyFriendsFactory over on Etsy. Feel free to look at their collection of patterns if you think you could make them yourself!

Hello!
My name is Megs and I make keepsakes for you out of old clothes, like these gorgeous lions!

I am currently based in Herne Bay and can only offer my services to those within 15 miles as a pick up and drop off service. Hopefully, if things get busy, I can expand to a postal service!

Drop a message if you are interested in these gorgeous lions and I'll have an information post soon!

The pattern I use is Larry the Lion Toy by FunkyFriendsFactory over on Etsy. Feel free to look at their range if you are a seam-master yourself!

Have a great day,

Megs x
