I was
looking for a personalized and special gift for my wife's graduation
from law school. I first looked at the Vermont Teddy Bear products
but I was unhappy with the limited personalization choices. After
searching the internet I lucked upon Bear family Gifts and Debbie.
After I ordered, Debbie initiated a wonderful dialogue of ideas to
further personalize the gift. For example, my wife's
graduation robe is adorned with an honors stole. While this is not a
choice on the web site, Debbie took the time to find the item in the matching
the color. This type of personalized and caring service
resulted in a truly special and meaningful gift---at a great price!
I am very thankful for finding Debbie and highly recommend Bear
family Gift products.

I ordered a very special bear from
Debbie Garrett! I gave it to my mother today and she
absolutely loved it!! Thank you Debbie for such a special gift
for my mother! My grandfather died on my mother's
birthday so she usually has a hard time on her birthday. I
sent Debbie one of my grandfather's shirts and she customized a bear
for my mom and made a shirt for the bear out of my grandfather's
shirt!! So if you are looking for that special item to either
make a death a little easier or just something unique talk to
Debbie! She did an awesome job working with me on customizing
the bear!

I was looking for a special gift for myself. I love bears and my
grandmother loved sunflowers. (If you haven't been to my site and read my poem about her,
she is in Heaven.) So I was looking for a bear with sunflowers. I had remembered I had won
a gift certificate at one of the parties to Bear Family Gifts and I had been to her site
before looking and didn't find any thing. I decided to take a peek again a couple days ago
to see if there was any thing new yet. I found the perfect gift for myself. There she was.
The cutest thing I had ever seen. A bear in a sweater with a sunflower on it. Handmade
pants with a sunflower pattern holding a bouquet of sunflowers. With a tiny lady bug
crawling up the stem of one of them. I had to have it. Of course I contacted Debbie
immediately. I told her I had to have that bear. I got it in the mail on Saturday.
Ohhhhhhh, it is sooooooooo cute. She is a lot more adorable in person than the picture on
the web site. I almost cried. I was soooo excited and I still am. Can you tell. Thank you
so much Debbie for having the perfect gift for myself. I
think this is the best gift I could ever buy myself. You have so many cute bears I would
have bought them all. But I was looking for just one special bear and found it. Thank
you God and Debbie. Ami |
"Hi won a Be Mine Valentine Bear. My
daughter absolutely loved it!! Debbie sent a Certificate of Authenticity with the bear and
I told my daughter she
was the owner of her very own bear. I cannot Thank You enough Debbie for the smiles
you have put on her face!! Hannah is in love with new bear. The outfit that the bear was
dressed in is so cute!"
Thanks Again Debbie,

"I just wanted to say thanks very much to Debbie for putting so much
thought into this bear. I requested this bear for a very special friend, Jennifer,
who lives in another state. I wanted this bear to be as special as she is, and I
must say that it definitely is! Jennifer is a consultant, so the bear came equipped
with a pencil, notepad, wire-rimmed glasses, and even a picture ID badge! Debbie was
a pleasure to work with, had lots of great ideas, and the ordering process was a
pleasure." Brian - North Carolina |
| "I was shopping around on the internet for a 21st birthday present
for my boyfriend. I was going to be overseas for his birthday and I wanted to make sure
that I left him something very unique and special to commemorate the occasion. The
possibility of a custom bear came into my head and, through the magic of the search
engine, I came across this site which promised "extraordinary gifts at ordinary
prices..." At this point, Debbie and I started an e-mail exchange going over every
detail of my film student bear....most of my e-mails started out with "hey, I just
came up with another impossible idea, What do you think about..." Well, needless to
say, Debbie made all my impossible ideas very possible. I fell in love with this bear as
soon as I saw it. It's as if she figured out exactly what I had visualized in my head and
created it with the same amount of love and care that I myself would have. And all of this
for probably about half of what it would have cost me anywhere else. Thanks so much
Debbie. My only regret is that I won't be there to see his face when he opens it." Sarv - New York |

"I got the bears
today. Thanks for all the work you did and working with me to complete the sale. It was a
true pleasure working with you, and maybe, someday, I may deal with you again. I searched
through AOL, for wedding bears (bride & groom sets), but all the prices where high and
the pictures didn't seem as nice. But when I came upon your sight, upon further inspection
I knew I was in the right place, the pictures I saw were good, the prices were nice, and
you worked well with me. I give you an A+++++, and hope that when other people see this
testimony, they check out your sight. And they'll be glad they did, I know I was. Best of
luck, and keep up the good work, I'm very proud of you." Heather, Pennsylvania

"My daughter
wanted to surprise her boyfriend with something special for his 16th birthday, and, she
wanted to do something to celebrate him getting elected captain. Debbie did an
unbelievable job in making the bear look just like the school's uniform, complete with the
school name, his last name, number and even a "C" for captain. The bear is
absolutely GORGEOUS!! It is truely a one of a kind bear and a great sentimental keepsake.
My daughter was thrilled with the quality and how much detail Debbie was able to put into
the bear. Debbie was so diligent in working with my daughter to ensure that she got
everything on the bear "just right". Debbie, thank you so much for making my
daughter's gift to her boyfriend such a memorable, sweet gift. We love Debbie's work so
much that we are planning to order a couple of customized soccer bears next." Laura

"I just received my bears they look great. It's

wonderful job."

"The pirate bear arrived on June 19. He is adorable! We gave him
to our school principal last Thursday. As I told you before, the mascot at our school is a
bear, and the mascot at the school he is going to is a pirate. Our principal was amazed at
the detailing of his outfit, from the earring in his ear, to the patch on his eye! It will
make leaving our school a little easier having the bear to remind him of all the good
things he did for us. It is something he will treasure for a long time. Thank you
again," Diane, New Jersey

Debbie..... I just came back from school....Dr. Naidu
CRIED when she opened her gift!!!!! She absolutely loves the Teacher Bear!!! Thank you so

"The postman brought the bear yesterday and we
just love it!! It's perfect!! Our daughter will get it on Friday night. Thank you so much.
Next year's play is going to be "Annie"......hmmmmm?!?!" Robin Rohrer, New
York

"The bears arrived safe and sound. I absolutely
love them. I'm doing everything I can to hold myself back from giving them to my Mother
early. I can't wait to see her reaction when she gets them. My Mother is a stuffed animal
fanatic. She is in a nursing home and I've run out of thing to buy her. Flowers get old
and one person can only own so many clothing items. The bears are the perfect gift for
her." Esther Miller - New York

"I received my angel teddy bears today and I
absolutely love them! These cute little angels are in memory of my mother and father who
loved playing cards. I'll think of my parents every day when I look at them playing cards
together with the Ace up my father's sleeve and the winning pile of pennies in front of my
mother. Thank you for making this special sentimental gift for my myself and a set for my
brother." Diane Morgan, Massachusetts

"I can't rave enough about the "Sweet 16
Bear" that was custom designed as a party favor for my daughter's Sweet 16
celebration. The picture does not do the bear enough justice...the quality and detail on
the bear are that of an item found in a very exclusive boutique!!!!! I also must include
the fact that the whole experience of designing this bear with Debbie was a delight. Not
only will my daughter have a beautiful keepsake but I have
made a friend!!! It's been a pleasure and I would use Bear Family Gifts again in a
heartbeat!!! Thanks again, " Amy Mosler, Wantagh, New York

"I just wanted to say "thank you" very
much for all your assistance and hard work in constructing "Police Bear". I
researched quite a few sites and I was getting dismayed that I would ever find the
appropriate gift for my husband's birthday. After contacting you and sharing information
of my desires, you took that information and produced a very special gift. Thank you very
much for enjoying what you do and making others feel "special". Vanessa Cook

"I have to say that your pictures do not do your
work justice. When you actually see the Bear in the fur it's amazing you can tell that you
love your work by the quality you produce and your excellent personal touch and customer
care. The presentation was last night and BBB was the talk of the place, I'm sure he is
going to be a hit! My two girls definitely loved the Bear and I will look forward to
working on another beautiful bear. My Boss by the way was overwhelmed with his style! He
said it had been made with love as he felt love and warmth from BBB immediately. Thanks
again for making someone really very happy. (me too)" Leesa, Sunderland England

"I absolutely love the little bears. I received
them today and couldn't wait to show them to my son and soon to be daughter-in-law! He
thought they were nice and she loved them too. They will make a nice addition to our
shower on this Sunday and also we will display them at the wedding. Thanks for such nice
work. I will recommend you to my friends." Karen ,Michigan

I originally contacted Bear Family Gifts with an
idea. I had been recently blessed and had become a new uncle. Our family
had been through quite a lot at the time and when little Parker came, it seemed like the
world was right again. My family lives and loves baseball. As a player, I wore
number 14 all through high school and college. When I graduated High School, my
brother began wearing the number. Well the number 14 just seemed to fit when Parker
was born on the 14th as well. My idea was taken and turned into a reality, exactly
as I had imagined it to be. I am certain that this bear will be a huge hit
at Christmas and that it will become a treasured family possession for many many
years. Thank you, it is PERFECT. John
