Lion

£95.00 inc. tax
Choose the most precious items of clothing and I'll handcraft adorable teddies for you to treasure.

Why just pack away your favourite babygrows - when will you ever get them out to look at them? These expertly handmade creatures feature patches from any sentimental fabrics, from babygrows to school uniforms or even Grandad's cap.

The lion needs one (or more, if you prefer) adult garment or seven baby/child garments (based on 6-9 month sleepsuits). The lion measures approx. 30cm/11”.

Please do ask if you'd like any help deciding which garments would work best from your selection. All the fabrics are lined during the process, so even delicate fabrics like chiffon and knits can be used.

If you would like your lion to be made using a wedding dress, please use this option: https://www.neverlandcreations.co.uk/product/weddingbear, and include a note at the checkout that you would like the lion.

If you would like your lion to be made using a bridesmaid's dress, please use this option: https://www.neverlandcreations.co.uk/product/bridesmaidbear, and include a note at the checkout that you would like the lion.

Included in the price:
- Add an extra personal touch with names, birth details or a short verse or message. You can even include 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.

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.

The lion is made using a pattern from The Funky Friends Factory.

Wonderful attention to detail and considerate nature
5/5
Louise Alder
Absolutely fantastic items received today. Clare was tasked with making 9 memory bears, 1 memory lion and 1 memory fox out of my late dad s clothes. After parcelling up a large box of clothes made up of predominantly blue shirts, trousers and jumpers. Clare used her creative genius and made every bear individual and different making them look like they are wearing little jumpers which just personifies the man they were made in memory of. Clare s wonderful attention to detail and considerate nature when she is being bombarded with questions and our indecisive nature, helped make this difficult and emotional task so much easier. I cannot thank Clare enough for the amazing items we received today and wish her all the luck with her move to Paris. Xxx ️ ️ ️
Thank you!

I ordered the lion for my niece s first birthday and wow it is just amazing but then I m not surprised. This is not the first time I have ordered from Clare. She is very professional super friendly contacting you throughout the process. Clare s attention to detail is second to none and I thoroughly recommend her to create that something special that you will have forever. Thanku for creating a special keepsake :)

Can t recommend Neverland Keepsake Creations enough! The quality and attention to detail is second to none. Clare understands the meaning of your commissioned piece and advises perfectly on how your little creation can be the best it can be - from fabric to words. I will treasure my lion, made in memory of my Dad, forever. ️
Beautiful

I bought this for my youngest, out of her grandads clothes. She absolutely loves it, and the personalised patch with his handwriting genuinely brings a tear to my eye. Incredible attention to detail, and just beautiful.

3 Wonderful Lions
5/5
Betsy
Clare did a wonderful job piecing together three lions for us to share with friends. She was able to create such wonderful and unique creations with the materials I was able to provide. Clare worked with me to understand the details I wanted on the lions and did such a great job incorporating the school emblem on each lion.
More than 5 stars!

Amy Lewis
Our keepsake lion arrived this morning, made from our little boy's 1st Christmas clothes. I was absolutely amazed when I opened the box. Clearly made with so much love and care. I cannot recommend Clare enough. I'm so glad I found this page, if you're in two minds about placing an order, do it! I promise you won't be disappointed. Throughout, Clare kept in touch and even let me know when my parcel had got to her safely. No question was ever delayed or went unanswered, despite how busy she clearly is! Such a gorgeous keepsake and a million times better than the other option of keeping his 1st Christmas clothes...stored away, in the attic. There should be more than a 5 star option...can you tell I love our keepsake!! Thank you so much. xxx
Most highly recommended!

Nannette
Sadly my nephew was suddenly without his daddy at just 8 years old. Feeling helpless I wanted to try to offer him as much comfort as we could. I knew Clare as a previous work colleague and I immediately thought of the beautiful keepsakes she made. My nephew picked one of daddy s T-shirts, looked at Clare's website and picked the design of Teddy he liked. We also took a message from his daddy, from some birthday cards and included it into the design. Clare then turned the initial request into the final finished piece within the week. I don t think Clare will ever know how much we appreciate it. Most highly recommended! xx
Beyond brilliant
5/5
Holly Drew
Clare is beyond brilliant. Extremely talented, clearly creative and more than happy to work to your ideas! She can add her own creative twist to things or you can ask for what you would like. She keeps in touch with you throughout your process. There might be choices like eye size or ear placement. We had a Lion made from our babies precious clothes. It's hard to part with them but now rather than sitting in a Keepsake box somewhere, our little Lion can be out on display. Please check out her range on her website. I've never seen so many options of animals to have your lovely items made into. The choice was sooo hard. The Lion is stuffed beautifully, firm enough to stand, soft enough for a cuddle. The little toes are so sweet. I dont know what for next, but I will be using Clare again in the future for something, I'm sure.
Superb!

Nicky Luck
OMG I nearly cried when I opened my parcel from Clare. She made me the most beautiful lion ever using my little boys babygrows and the result is just AMAZING. The quality is just superb and I'm just so glad I found Clare on facebook otherwise these little babygrows would be stuck in a box somewhere and now they have been turned into a beautiful toy lion that reminds me every day of so many special memories. Thank you so much Clare. xxx
100% recommend!

Leigh McGuigan
I could not be more impressed by Clare's professionalism and AMAZING creative talent! We are over the moon with our memory lion & were kept in the loop with regular updates about our creation. Claire is so friendly and will answer your questions honestly (even if it did mean postponing my next purchase). The quality of the product exceeded expectations. We can't thank you enough, you've definitely got repeat customer here!
Wonderful experience

The most wonderful experience!! That little bag of special baby bits you just can't part with, turned into something truly magical you can share and keep forever. Alfie's lion is wonderful and will be treasured for a lifetime. Thank so very much. Very talented lady xx
Bloody fantastic
5/5
Gemma
Clare has been absolutely fantastic! Her skill, care and attention to detail is second to none! From keeping me updated on the progress of my keepsake to giving me option for the finer details; Clare even included a few details that I specifically requested to be included on the lion. I m absolutely over the moon with my keepsake and will definitely be ordering from Clare again!
