Members Ms. Walsh Posted February 27, 2006 Members Share Posted February 27, 2006 Yes, I love Build-A-Bear. I go there once a year or so to make a bear. I love the process, though, and naming them. I actually know someone who works at the place, but he's not really that great of a person...he stuffs the bears. It's kind of weird. I have a Koala named Kokoa, a bear named Sophie, another bear that I got for my birthday from my sister, and a unicorn named Karen. I have all of them at school w/ me (and I sleep w/ them ) except Sophie because my sister stole her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bree Posted February 27, 2006 Members Share Posted February 27, 2006 I haven't been there, but I did "Adopt a Bear" at the Boyd's Bears store in Gettysburg. I love that place! It's 4 stories of bears and other stuffed animals. They also have a build a bear workshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DanTheMan Posted February 27, 2006 Members Share Posted February 27, 2006 I've heard the bears can cost an arm and a leg. Any truth to that? Yeah, I know, it's just like pictures...you can't put a price on something like this. But I was just wondering... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ms. Walsh Posted February 27, 2006 Members Share Posted February 27, 2006 The bears are like $8-$20 to build. ($8 for a simple teddy bear and then $20 for the special, limited animals.) Most bears are about $12-$15. What costs a lot are the accessories. They have like everything to put on the bears--costumes, college t-shirts, underwear, socks, shoes, roller skates, sunglasses, beds, etc. So yes, you could wind up spending a fortune on one stupid bear, but if you buy it one nice outfit it should be about $20-30 total. Most como outfits (like costumes) are $10-$15. Of course, the bear doesn't need clothes. I didn't buy any clothes for my unicorn when I made it. And when I made second bear, I didn't have enough money to buy it an outfit, so I waited a few months until I had extra money. I don't think it minded being a nudist for the time-being.
