...introduces one of a kind artist soft sculpture bears and other creatures which are completely designed and hand sewn by me, Melisa Nichols.
****~**** Please scroll down to see available bears. ****~****
I create using a variety of materials including mohair, faux fur and recycled fur. Please click the "About Me" page above for more details.
My recycled fur creations are made from vintage fur coats and collars that have been damaged in some way... I only use the good pieces to create a work of art to treasure :o) My real fur pieces are fully lined for more durability. I hope that, by using this medium in my artwork, I am showing dignity to these animals who were sacrificed for fashion. I also feel that I am helping the environment by recycling.
| This is cute... #17 in this video is my soft sculpture pygmy marmoset. |
