When I found a bag full of tan cashmere coat scraps in my attic from when we created stuffed animals in our 2017 “To Grandma’s House We Go” issue of my magazine, I was surprised. When I found most of the fur collar still in one piece, I was delighted. But when I found the three vintage once-upon-a-time-much-loved bears that I’d lovingly mended back to life, I had to sit down with them on my lap to ponder, keep or re-home. When I found the Edison record pinkeeper, that’s when I knew. My three bears deserved to live the rest of their lives out-loud in a loving home and my pinkeeper put to good use, rather than stored away in my attic. Meet Papa Oscar, Mama Esme, and baby Estella.
