When I passed your stand at Living Crafts.....there was only one Teddy Bear for me..... I bought him, and he has settled in nicely at home with all the Teds. Which bear was it ?, the 19inch Dressed Curly Gold Bear..... He is just great and will be treasured forever, and thanks for signing his label.....I've called him Uncle Alfred (The Great). He is a really wonderful character fully dressed bear, right down to his white plimsolls.

 My husband purchased a Ragamuffin bear for my birthday when we met Brendan & David at one of our craft fairs. As I sat at my craft stand, I was being watched studiously by Jasmine, a primrose yellow 14" bear.....
I just had to take her home and considered swapping my Ragamuffin for Jasmine, but I couldn't do it. Both of my much loved, deeply gorgeous bears now take pride of place in my bedroom, where I can see and enjoy them every day. The work, attention to detail and the characters of all of Brendan's bears are truly astounding. Thank you very much indeed!

 Just to thank you so much for the beautiful bear you made for my mum's 7oth birthday - she was delighted with him and absolutely adores him!  - you clever thing - you've done it again!!

Just thought I would let you know that the 4" Tiny Buttercup Bear I rehomed from 'Living Crafts', who is now known as 'Cecil' after the Cecil family of Hatfield, is settling in well with his 511 friends! At the moment he is in the living room with the 'older' bears who are somewhat quieter and better behaved than the general hug ! Keep up the good work - I like the website.

I'm not normally a bear person but whilst looking through your site for a present for someone else I stumbled across the Very Hairy Bear.
I fell in love with him from his photograph. In the "fur" he's even more delightful. Small but handsome. With thanks for your prompt service and attention to detail.

Many thanks for the safe delivery of the Dusty Pink Bear. Your service from start to finish has been excellent. I will certainly be purchasing your products again.

I recently purchased three bears from Brendan's Bears, an Old Bear for myself and Ragamuffin and  Hairy Bear for my two daughters.
We are all extremely happy with them, the quality is outstanding. Ragamuffin is wonderfully cuddly and has a lovely, old fashioned growl, Hairy Bear has such a sweet face, it's almost as if he is looking at you and Old Bear looks quite eccentric with his gold rimmed glasses and his aged fur gives him real character. They are truly unique. We would definitely recommend Brendan's Bears.

He's really lovely - quirky, cuddly and a real character. I can't wait to see my step-grandson's face on Christmas day when he meets his new friend !

.....my 93 year old mother was overjoyed with the teddy bear I bought on her behalf.....and is planning to give the bear to the youngest member of our family - just 6 months old - at Christmas. Hope the business goes from strength to strength.

The twin girls love their new teddy bears received from Auntie M and receiving these through the post was a lovely surprise ! A truly unique and special gift for the babies that I'm sure they will grow to appreciate and love as much as their mum and dad do now. The level of craftsmanship that has gone into creating our bears is obvious and not often seen these days.

I recently purchased a delightful teddy bear from 'Brendan's Bears'. He has a deep brown, astrakhan coat and beige suedette paw pads, with a jaunty checked ribbon. He also 'growls'. He has the cheekiest of faces and is a present for my sister, who can't wait to see him. I was so impressed that I ordered a teddy for myself and matching teddies for new twin girls in the family.
 
I can highly recommend the originality of Brendan's bears and the superior level of materials and workmanship.
