Stuffed Animal Collection - Bears
I was inspired by my friend Shadow Eon to upload some photos of my plush collection, and I decided to share it by photographing them in animal groups and these are my plush Bears - Read notes for their names and descriptions.
To give a bit of a background on my collection; I have been an avid stuffed animal collector since I was a small girl and I continued collecting into adulthood (I am 24 now). During 2011, I began to prepare to move out of my childhood home (with my parents) into a home with my Fiance (our first home together). Needless to say 24 years of stuffed animals can really take up a ton of space... so I made the decision to thin out my plush collection and streamline my other collections to begin this new chapter of my life feeling less weighed down. I am almost embarassed to admit that I donated and gifted away 620 stuffed animals of all shapes and sizes. No lie... that many. *blushes* Well I will admit that they ALL went to good homes. Some went to my friends and family members and some whent to charaties and some even went all the way to Baghdad (for United States soldiers to give to local children). Anyway, long story as short as I can make it... it was difficult seeing that much of my collection leave, but I was happy to know that they were being appreciated by their new owners and that I could better appreciate the ones I liked best when there was not so many of them.
