The teddy bear is the iconic toy of choice from most of our childhoods! No wonder we still love them as adults and you will that find bear creators and collectors exist all around the world.
One such creator is Little Handfuls, the artist Liza Adams, has been needle felting for over 20 years and is also the author of two needle felting books. Her work on Etsy has been limited due to mostly selling in person at shows for the first few years, then via online shows such as Teddies Worldwide, and more recently Ebearshow.com.
With the way of the world these days we are looking at shopping online more and more and the Little Handfuls Etsy store is now rapidly filling up with tutorials and the odd bear as well.
