A few notes about purchasing from my site:
  • Unfortunately at this time I am not taking any international orders because of postage difficulties due to Covid-19.
  • Purchases are paid for via PayPal. I charge a flat rate Priority Mail for shipping and if you have more than one item in your cart the shipping will be combined to that one flat rate.
About me ~
My name is Stacey Bear and I am an artist and antique dealer and live in an 1812 farmhouse in South Central Pennsylvania.

​I first began making spun cotton ornaments and whimsical dolls in 1996 when I started my business Momentos. Over the years I have taught myself to create my cotton figures with similar methods used by skilled artisans over 100 years ago in Germany. I sculpt the heads from paper clay and carefully paint them with acrylic or oil paint and often use glass eyes. The garments are made of 100% cotton batting which I hand dye. Antique fabrics, trims and lace are added and miniature accessories that I create add a final touch. I love to make Easter, Halloween and Christmas figures as well as Valentines Day, Patriotic, sewing themed peddler dolls and more!

Making art and collecting has been my passion from a very young age. From the first time I picked up a paint brush, built my own dollhouse at age 12 and collected every rock, shell and curiosity I could find, my life has been centered on learning and creating!

Ordering and show Schedule

If you see something you like on the site that is not in the SHOP it is most likely sold but you are welcome to contact me with your interest. Although each piece is one-of-a-kind, I can usually create something close using my stash of antique accessories. 

I do several online shop updates and in-person shows each year. Check out the SCHEDULE section for my calendar of events.
