Item Description
Bear Description:
Paisley Bear could have starred in the John Hughes movie, Pretty in Pink, because that’s exactly what she is! Her body is covered with decorative turquoise and pink floral paisleys that rest against a pink background. A silky pink bow is tied around her neck while a pattern of blue polka dots on a white background covers her paw pads, muzzle, and ears, beautifully accenting the paisley pattern. Painted stitches create seams where her limbs attach to her body, which give her a plush teddy bear effect. Doesn’t she scream “SQUEEZE ME?!”
