Birthweight Teddy 4lb - 6lbs

There's something precious about being able to hold that newborn weight in your arms again.  Choose the most precious items of clothing and I'll handcraft adorable teddies for you to treasure.  Several of the teddies can be weighted, up to 9lbs.  This listing is for teddies weighing between 4lbs and 6lbs.

The weight is provided by clean steel shot, which is securely encased in pouches and distributed evenly inside the teddy.

PLEASE BE SURE TO MAKE A NOTE OF THE WEIGHT REQUIRED IN A NOTE AT THE CHECKOUT.

Please do ask if you'd like any help deciding which garments would work best from your selection. Blankets etc can also be added if you do not have a larger sized garment required for some of the teddies. All the fabrics are lined during the process, so even delicate fabrics like chiffon and knits can be used.

Included in the price:
- Add an extra personal touch with names, birth details or a short verse or message. You can even add photo patches or a printed patch with your replicated handwriting at an additional cost.
- You will receive full Design Consultation and I will use my 'artistic licence', however I am more than happy to work with you if you have particular design features in mind, items you’d like me to do something special with or favourites you have seen in my previous work. I can update you with my ideas before I start work, or you can choose a surprise and let me decide what will work particularly well.
- UK P&P (Royal Mail's Tracked 24, or Parcel Force's express24 for larger orders).

Stuffed with a little magic along with premium grade carded hollow fibre filling and while I cannot CE certify these keepsakes (I would have to burn your fabrics!), eyes, noses and joints are always “safety” standard and carefully fixed in place. Where needed, fabrics are lined to ensure their stability and durability, and seams are triple-stitched for extra strength. Weighting is provided by steel shot, which is secured in fabric pouches inside the teddy.

Once you have placed your order I will get in touch with your order confirmation and further information about where to send your fabrics and by when. The current waiting time is approx. 6 months, although I can often accommodate if you need your order sooner.

If you need your keepsake by a particular date, please add a note to your order in the checkout.

If you change your mind about any of the details after you have ordered, please just get in touch.  I'm happy even to swap to an entirely different keepsake.  Any difference in price can easily be refunded or invoiced.

CHARITY DONATION
All keepsakes now include a donation to your choice of three charities - Hope House/Ty Gobaith Children's Hospice, St David's Hospice or Idlewild Animal Sanctuary.  You can find more information about the charities here.  This donation is at no extra cost to you, and you can choose the charity to which you'd like to donate at the checkout when you're placing your order.
