 Good things come in threes...especially when you’re talkin’ about our bears!! This set of bears feature Smiley in a blue jersey with ‘Choose Happy’ on the front, Giggles with ‘Laugh Often’ written on his green jersey, and Squeezey in his ‘Hugs To You’ red jersey. Each measures 3 and a half inches, and is fully jointed. So, if you’re in need of a little cheering...or someone else is, just grab a bear and it’s sure to put a smile on your face.  With Fall on its way, you’ve probably started thinking about the fall foliage...and that’s where our next QVC exclusive plush piece falls into play. C. Fallin’ Leafowitz measures about 14-inches and is made of rust chenille. In true fall style, C. Fallin’ is wearing a stylish corduroy olive jumper with cotton bloomers and a flower adorned headband. She is also sporting a hand stitched cream color sweater with a rust bow. C. Fallin’ is a bean-filled bear with felt paw pads and an autumn leave stitched on her paw.
 Mrs. Tuttle comes to life in this exclusive plush piece. Mrs. Tuttle is a 10-inch bean-filled, fully jointed, light gold bear. She is patterned after the Mrs. Tuttle resin wall frame also in this show. She is wearing an eggplant colored chenille button down sweater. Her felt hat is also eggplant in color with two large flowers adorning the front of the hat. She has a hand-stitched nose, mouth, and paw pads.
