Every bear is lovingly handmade from cherished clothing, turning memories into something you can hold close forever.
No two bears are the same — each one tells a unique story through the fabric of your loved one’s clothing.
Whether for a birthday, anniversary, or in remembrance, a memory bear is a truly thoughtful and personal gift.
Send us your garments, and we’ll handle the rest. Safe, simple, and made with care every step of the way.
Hi, I’m Sue! The heart behind Unique Memory Bears. I absolutely love creating memory bears because each one tells a special story. These aren’t just keepsakes; they’re filled with emotion, connection, and memories that deserve to be cherished. Whether it’s a shirt, blouse, or any garment that reminds you of someone special, I’ll carefully transform it into a bear that brings comfort and love.
Every memory bear I make is unique — just like the person it represents. That favourite jumper they wore all the time, or the top they had on the last time you hugged them — those pieces hold powerful memories. A memory bear is a beautiful way to keep those moments close, something to hold onto when you’re missing them most. With care and love stitched into every seam, it’s more than a bear — it’s a hug from the past.
” Sue has made 3 memory bears for me over the last couple of weeks and I’m over the moon with the end product so if anyone is looking for a memory bear then I would highly recommend Sue xx “
” Sue made a perfect bear out of my partners Grandad’s clothes, she was so kind and lovely throughout the whole process. There was a lot of thought that went into the bear & time and consideration. I messaged so close to Christmas and she turned it around for me so quickly for a Christmas gift, which I hugely appreciated. Can’t thank Sue enough for everything and would recommend
