How We Born – TeddyTales

The Hands Behind the Magic

Irina Lekareva founded TeddyTales in 2013.

She believes every soul carries a childhood self, and every childhood self deserves a bear that stays.

She still works at the bench today, guiding artisans through every step —adjusting a nose by half a millimeter, softening a shoulder so it sits just right.

The artisans she trains learn more than technique. They learn patience. Attention. Care.
Each bear takes seven days and 127 steps, and no two are ever the same.

Before the needle touches the fabric, the magic has already begun

In the enchanted forest of TeddyTales, the birth of every little bear begins with a gentle promise.

The artisan prepares the fabric and thread, while Fairy July has already written her blessing in the moonlight.

When the red heart is gently placed into the chest, when the first ray of moonlight illuminates the sleeping eyes

—"Wake up," whispers the magic, "Someone is waiting for you to come home."

They will choose their own clothes, check their reflection in the mirror, then lie down in a gift box, tie the ribbon, board a plane that soars through the clouds, and fly to you.
