Teddybär Total Show 2015 Münster

Teddybär Total Münster
JuNa Art by Julia Nazarenko - Germany

Well, hello there. I know, it’s been so long…! These past few weeks were kind of insane. As you probably got it I recently launched the new website. However, I was pretty much exhausted afterwards. The last couple of weeks have been very rich in emotions. That’s the least to say! My brain has been so focused on all the webwork that I'm kind of exhausted after going through such an intensive period. After updating my Pinterest page and launching my new Facebook Page (I'm still working on the last one) I decided to take some time for myself to cool off, to refresh, to reboot. Meanwhile I've also been working on new business cards, new labels and new certificates. But more about this later.........

And then there is Münster a fantastic city in Germany with a magical teddy bear show. It is an absolute dream for everybody loving teddy bears and their plush friends. The international Teddybär Total Show in Münster (Germany) is the world's capital of all teddy bear shows. With about 300 artists, manufacturers and dealers from 25 nations this Teddybär Total Event is a must! Attending this show is always a privilege. I'm not only viewing bears and buying my supplies, but I also like to meet and greet my fellow artist friends from all over the world.
If you want to see what I've seen then you can take a look at the pictures on the official website of Teddybär Total. Be aware: pics intense...approx. 400 pictures!
Below are some impressions of the show in 2015 that come from my camera. Most of them are made from Russian artists because I love their work so much. Russian art all about the details, the precision, the beautiful colors, the amazing designs and the (subtle) elegance. 
I've put together a little overall photoalbum on my Facebook Page as well. So please go ahead and pop over to visit the album on my page. 
Many thanks to the exhibitors who let me take the pictures.......

And before I realized the day went by........as always it was a very unique experience and the day went by much to fast. I returned home with a big "chocolate-goodie-bag" that I got from my Russian friends. It has become a habit that we swap candies & cookies. There's nothing better than some delicious Russian chocolates. They are pure heaven....yum! I think it's the best exhibition food ever!!

Lieve Thea,

Meid wat een geweldige website!
Zo helemaal in jouw stijl, keurig en

De foto's van de beurs in Munster zijn
geweldig, iedereen raakt hierdoor
weer geïnspireerd om ook weer mooie
diertjes te gaan maken...
