Welcome to our collection of Memory Bears & Animals, featuring our beloved Unjointed Memory Bear. There's something inherently special about a teddy bear that never fades with time. This style of memory bear is perfect for all clothing whether it be outgrown baby clothing, an old uniform or grandad's favourite shirt.
The term "unjointed" refers to how the bear is made. Unlike jointed bears, where the limbs are made separately and attached after stuffing, the limbs of our unjointed bear are stitched directly into the body before stuffing. This construction imparts a sense of permanence, with the limbs in a fixed position, creating a classic and enduring silhouette.
Each bear measures approximately 32cm in height, embodying a perfect balance of size and cuddliness. These bears require a minimum of 7-8 items of baby clothing, however, if these are mostly newborn sizes, we recommend adding a couple of extras. One item of adult clothing can be used, however, two items are ideal if possible.
Key features of our Unjointed Memory Bear include:
- Machine embroidery on one footpad is included.
- A complimentary dust bag is provided.
- All our bears & animals are stuffed with 100% natural British sheeps wool.
- Please be aware that there is a big variation in the finished keepsakes depending on the clothing received. Please see our photos to see how the finished bears/keepsakes can vary.
- Once we have received your order you will receive an email with all the details for sending us your clothing.
Experience the timeless appeal of our Unjointed Memory Bear and entrust us to create a cherished keepsake that preserves your precious memories for years to come.

The amount of clothing needed for each keepsake varies, please refer to the information pages for these. We recommend if you are sending mostly newborn sized clothing popping a few extras in. You can mark these as spare, or make a note of the favourite items for us to prioritise. Anything we do not need to use will be returned uncut with your finished keepsake.
All clothing should be in a clean state before sending. However, we understand smell can play a big part in a memorial keepsake so you do not necessarily need to wash it before however please unsure it isn't dirty. We also understand stains happen especially when babies are involved, don't worry about these we can do our best to work around stains. If we can't use an item we will return it uncut with your keepsake. Theres no need to iron everything, part of making your keepsake includes a lot of ironing so save yourself a job.
Possibly. The better condition of the clothing sent the better it will work on your keepsake. If there's a couple of small holes we can usually work around them. If you're really unsure please contact us and we can take a look.
Most clothing can be used. The only things we definitely cannot use is leather or anything made from a loose knit. Items such as scarves made from fine fabrics may need additional lining to strengthen it, in this case there would be an additional charge.
