Show Updates

With Christmas only a couple of months away, I'm sure we will all be busy preparing for this special time.
I know I will be, so there will be no new creations or shows planned until February next year.

The "Be My Valentine" online show opens 11th February 2011 at 8pm ( Melbourne, Australian Daylight Savings Time ) through till 8pm 14th February.
" No parking, no queues, no entrance fee, no pushing or shoving.....just fun in the comfort of your armchair!"
I will be creating Valentine themed pieces to offer exclusively at this show!
There will be at least 3 new creations, hopefully if time is on my side, maybe a few more!!!
Please visit our website
http://www.russellbears.com/ and follow the link from the "Shows" page for details.

At this stage I'm not sure what I will be creating, but if you would like help me out with some requests, I will do my best to cater for your preferences!
As with all online shows, it's "First in, Best Dressed", so unfortunately I am unable to reserve anything before the show officially opens!!!
