subject: The World Of Personalised Teddies Awaits To Be Explored [print this page] Teddy bears make up a fond childhood memory for everyone, and are still the ideal gifts for a small girl or boy as they are growing up. Little is known, however, on the humble beginnings of teddies, and how it has now become a fascination amongst adults as well, especially when it comes to romantic dates such as Valentines Day as well as wedding anniversaries.
As personalised teddies begin to dominate the dating world, it would be good to have a general understanding on teddies. Custom teddies are generally a stuffed toy which is filled with soft, fluffy and pliable white cotton, whilst being covered with a soft and furry exterior of fur. It has spanned a good 110 years since its inception in 1902, and has even got its own cult of collectible teddies. The creator of the teddy bear, Morris Michtom was inspired by a drawing done by the former President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, and initially named the stuffed bear after the latter, calling it Teddys Bear. The customised teddy became such a hit amongst his town members in that Michtom later came up with and founded his company, Ideal Novelty and Toy Co. Personalised teddies are generally made in four simple steps. The first involves cutting the segments of the bear, which is thereafter sewn and turned into the toy bears body parts. Once the parts are filled with cotton or synthetic material, it is assembled together to form the well known childs toy. Custom made teddy bears are such a hit that there are even teddy bear museums dedicated to the toy, the first of which can be found in Englands district of Hampshire. Although the founding museum was closed down in 2006, there are still numerous teddy museums across the world which holds some teddies which are now considered priceless. Why, it is not surprising to note that there are even teddy bear festivals which are held around the globe, and these include countries like Japan, Canada, Great Britain as well as Germany.
When it comes to the versatility of a gift, personalised teddies are an all time favourite. Take for example, a situation where a child is unwell and admitted into the hospital. The best way to cheer such a small soul would be by sending over a number of colourful balloons and a big cuddly teddy bear, with the words Get Well Soon, Amanda on the shirt which is worn by the teddy bear. There are quite a number of online stores as well as shopping outlets which are already providing these services, among others, to the awaiting client pool. Whatever the situation may be, nothing solves it better than a box of chocolates or a bouquet of flowers with a teddy bear and a personal message. This small gesture is bound to bring a smile to anyones face.
