○Memory-Teddy HISTORY

“Peahawk” Kimono Teddy Bear_memoryyteddy

I was happy that he was happy when I gave him a teddy bear made from his precious kimono, which had a family crest and beautiful embroidery on it. It was also impressive that I made it with clothes that my mother used to wear and gave it to my mother as a gift, and that she was happy with it.

Children's clothing is an item that is full of memories, so everyone is happy with it.

<Plus art comment>

Teddy bears have different expressions depending on the materials they are combined with.

When combined with leather material, you can feel coolness, and when combined with pale colors, you can feel a gentle atmosphere. Also, please pay attention to the details such as the teddy bear's claws being expressed as zippers.
