Australian Blazer Bears

Posted on February 24, 2016 By Blazer Bear


Australian Blazer Bears

We have sent lots of bears to Australia over the past year. These Australian Blazer Bears are off to Perth. They are keepsakes are for Scotch College in Perth. We had made one for a customer a few months ago and it was much admired. Since then we have had lots of orders for more keepsake bears. We love the distinctive stripe and smart gold button and we are always very careful to make sure we align all the pattern to create professional and handcrafted product. These bespoke bears are now travelling via courier to Australia to meet their new owners.

We have sent Blazer Bears to Sydney, Perth and Melbourne for recent school leavers and for those who left school even 30 years ago! We have even managed to source material for certain schools, which cuts out the need to send the uniform to the UK. We are visiting Australia in October so look forward to making more contacts down under!

Closer to home we have also made two gorgeous Blazer Bears for The Cathedral School in Cardiff. One boy bear, one girl bear both created from the wonderful uniform. We incorporated the lovely braiding on both bears as either cuffs or piping and loved the traditional scarf which we shared between both bears. We have been delighted to hear the children love them and have received new orders as a result. We hope to attend some fairs in South Wales this summer so will post dates soon.

We have lots of group orders arriving for leavers. Lots of bears this month have also been made from some very smart striped material.

Some are from school blazers in a very distinctive venetian stripe, and some from rowers blazers. The colours are fantastic and we have added lots of regatta badges and colours to these keepsake bears charting all the events that have been attended by different crews and their successes.

We are currently busy working on a large order of Blazer Bears for a school in London celebrating 150 years. It seems a year of celebration as we have also just taken an enquiry for another group order to be sold in a school shop for their special 150 years anniversary. We have provided labels which will be stitched to the back of the bear saying ‘150 years anniversary’ which will create a bespoke keepsake of the special celebration.

 

 

 

 

How did it start?

tplFriends since their first children were born, Pru and Kathy are two mums whose children are now at secondary school. As a special keepsake Pru made each of her children a teddy bear out of their old school Blazers. Kathy loved the concept so they joined forces and Blazer Bear. was born.  Find out more

How does it work?

Whether it be a blazer, school uniform, rugby shirts, precious clothing babygros, the list is endless. Everything is lovingly handcrafted entirely from what you give us. If it is a group school order you are after, we can often source the fabrics and even incorporate a school emblem Find out
