It’s not really true…WELL…
maybe just a little bit true!
I found this bear at the Thrift store and fell in love with him.
His name is Tucker which endeared him to my heart!
He is sitting in the place of honor…
on my bed while I fold laundry!
So what did I save? The ribbon is some that my friend Brenda from the Rusty Thimble tied around a package she sent me last year. He had a big red bow but that just did not suit him.
He’s a First and Main bear.
Have you ever heard of those?
(And do you save every little bit of ribbon?)

Hi Tucker,
I'm Prudence Clearwater (the teddy bear) and it's beary nice meeting you. You found a wonderful forever home and the best Mom ever, well, next to my Mom. But you know how that goes - our Moms are always #1 and the "bestest". Giggle.
Maybe Miss Lavender Dreams will take your picture with Wendy, even though she is a dolly we are beary good friends.
Do you know that we go to Camp Good Bear each summer? Maybe you can join us this year. We have so much fun.
Heaps of Hugs
Prudence ♥
Good morning, Diane! Tucker's twin is sitting upstairs in my soap room, enjoying the fragrances. lol
Aren't they just the cutest bears!! Glad you found him.
Enjoy your weekend.♥
Nice little bear. I also like that"D" pillow beside him. I just now saw the pretty planted you picked up , while thrifting. Love it. Your new header with the shells perfect. xoxo,Susie
He's very cute! I've never heard of a First and Main bear tho.
Aww I love him too..he is beary cute..
Love for you x
He's a cutie! No, I've never heard of that type of bear. And YES, I save every scrap of ribbon that comes into the house. I keep it in various containers in my studio. And it's surprising how often I can find just the right one for a little gift wrapping or an embellishment.
Tucker is a fine looking bear. If I'd seen him at the thrift store he would be sitting in the bears' room. Yes, I save every ribbon. I thought everyone did. HUgs
I save it all to, you never know when you might come across the perfect item it will go on!!
Sadly, I do. And every little stuffed animal, too, apparently. No, I don't think I have heard of First and Main. He looks very cute on your bed.
So sweet!!
Hugs,
Debbie
What a sweet bear! I keep all my pieces of ribbon in a big glass jar where I can see them.
How cute is he! I am a bear lover, I love the tattered look and have a "few" :) I do keep all my ribbons! even the ones that come on bags from stores! I have a ribbon can that is decorated with my scrapbook stuff and ribbons, I put them all in {ok I have a few cans} :)
Have a great weekend!

Your little bear is very cute Diane. I don't keep many stuffed animals around the house. Four dogs here, and three of them love stuffed animals of any kind. I'm like you and save ribbon from packages and even from towels when they are packaged nicely. I keep them in a bag and eventually will figure out what I want to use.
The rest I keep in the bag and give to my local thrift store. I figured someone else can use a grab bag of ribbon for hair bows or scrapbooking.
No-I haven't heard of those but he is darling and the little ribbon is perfect on him. xo Diana
Sweet addition. Yes, I save every piece of ribbon and everything else!

The bear looks cute on your bed with the green ribbon. I am more inclined to save boxes, but my dad was the saver of everything: boxes, junk mail, orange juice cartons, cardboard Whiskas containers and cat litter boxes.
How sweet. I have the teddy bears that we gave our sons when they were little. Love them!
Never heard of First and Main bear, but he is cute. I save any ribbon that comes my way.
He looks like a well loved bear! and yes I do save all my bits and pieces of ribbons! Sweet bear!
hugs, Linda
Oh he is sooo cute. I never met a little bear I didn't fall in love with. The ribbon suits him and I'm sure he makes you smile while you fold the laundry. I have a little bear that sits in a chair in my bedroom, sometimes on the bed. Happy Spring.

So happy that you rescued Tucker. he is very cute :)

That bear is so adorable. I do save all ribbon, and always find a new use for it! Love to do that. xo
I have one just like him with a brown ribbon, he sits with my number 2 bear, a female version and next to them both is my 'Fuzzie Wuzzie Woo Woo', who is nearly as old as I am and a bit ragged around the edges (a bit like me), but also blind as his eyes are no longer with him. I sit him next to my two bears as he can't see (??! I know, weird but I have a caring relationship with them all!). Take care. Chel x
what a Precious Bear, oh Diane how sweet that you kept the scraps I do that too!
Hugs hope you are having a wonderful weekend
Brenda
I love his name :) and I am electing you Thrift Store Queen. No one I know finds cool stuff like you do when thrifting
Of course I save every little bit of ribbon...I'm a crafter, lol.
Love your little bear, he's cute, and cuddly.
Jen
Oh, goodness, that's so me! I'm finding myself to be such a saver (pack rat) these days! For me, though, it's not becoming such a good thing......
Your Tucker's presh!
And I am GONE on your header, too, girl! Island girl!
Happy weekend,
Kelley~
He is ever so sweet. I am not the least bit crafty but I do save ribbon.
Diane,
Tucker is so cute!! I do keep every piece of ribbon....you just never know when you might need it.
hugs,
Cindy
What a find Diane (yet again! Charity/Trifts shoppes are such a way to save and entertains to boot!)
Hugs to Tucker,
Oh my goodness I can see why you fell in love with him....he is adorable! Happy weekend.
What a nice bear! You're lucky that you found him! :) He looks really great on your bed!
Tucker is very sweet,and no I haven't heard of these bears before. He was a great find for you indeed!I have to control my urge to bring home to many teddies,and other things as well :)
Blessings friend
He's lovely. I can't resist bringing home another bear either,they seem to watch you as you browse. It's as if they are asking you to take them home. I do save bits of ribbon too,never know when you need a tiny bit. :)
He is so lovely and looks really cute sat on your bed I love the fact you gave him the ribbon from a friends parcel. Enjoy him and your Sunday, dee x
Now see, I would have grabbed him too.. I"ve hear of First and Main as well.. I have a large collection of Boyds bears.. Im trying to sell some of them and Im only keeping a few.. The few that look like old fashion teddy bears.. They have glass eyes and moveable joint :)
Robyn
Aw....Tucker, perfect name! I can imagine a child tucking him under their arm at night :)
I love to save ribbon, too, and cardboard from paper pads that get used up. I paint them and add some rub ons to package my hair clips on :)
