After quite a number of Claire’s exclusive releases, another new face has appeared amongst them!
London the pink dog has been speculated for a while but has only just been spotted in circulation. She still seems to be a little hard to find so she may not be in all Claire’s stores as of yet.
She is available in both a regular 6″ size and as a key clip.
Have you spotted London in Claire’s stores yet?
The 15th October is Schnitzel the Schnauzer’s birthday!

Did you know, the Miniature Schnauzer breed of dog first originated in Germany in the 1800’s. They are also known as a Zwergschnauzer (Dwarf Schnauzer) and have an average lifespan of around 14 years! Quite an age for such a little guy!

As you can see from the title, today was National Bring Your Teddy to Work and School Day!
Ty have released many teddies over the years. Beanie Babies, Beanie Boos, Beanie Buddies, Attic Treasures, Ty Classic, etc, all have various teddies all in different styles and colours.
Some teddies are rarer than others, with the Billionaire bears fetching over $200-400 each!
Some were released for charity. Aware was released to raise money for Breast Cancer Awareness.
There have been Christmas bears, like the 1999 Holiday Teddy, St. Patrick’s Day bears, like Clover, and Easter bears like Bonnet.

Cecil is back on Amazon UK!
He was previously available on Amazon UK via third-party seller, The Entertainer. The few that they were selling sold out very quickly.
Now Cecil is back again on Amazon UK via another seller, Inspiration Gift Shop.
Judging from the previous time he was available, he probably won’t be around for long so get him quickly before they sell out!
