Several years back, when I was hospitalized for my heart problems, my sister gave me this most precious - soft, cuddly and squishy-hugable teddy bear.
Having it for the years I've had him, I've always wanted to make a special place for him as he has a special place in my soul 'cause he's from my sister!! Well, I went to Hobby Lobby yesterday and got some color coordinated flowers for the bedroom (the one I just finished painting purple), and an oval grapevine wreath. When I got home I stained the wreath (I stained it 'messy' on purpose so some of the natural browns would show also), and added the flowers today. Placed him on his now new throne and hung him where I can see him each night when I go to bed. He gave me lots of comfort, when I thought I was having my last breaths of life, and I want him to continue-----
I present Teddy....
