Gigantic Teddy Bear

Step 5: Filling the bear and having fun

It came up really nice and we stopped sewing when we only had a small gap left, enough to fill the Teddy bear. We actually had two choices for filling: 1. polystyrene beads; 2. polyester wadding. We choosed the polystyrene beads but wadding is also a good choice if you can afford it. After filling the Teddy bear we cleaned it up and made alot of nice pictures with it

I just HAVE to make something like this.

This is just fantastic. I NEED to make one of these at some point.

One question though, if I were to buy the materials just for this, how much polystyrene would I need to buy?

[propart]

We used about 20 bags of 60 litres filled with polystyrene beads.

That is so awesome!! How much roughly did it cost?

It depends on the material you use. The material we used was about 150 $ but I'm sure you can find cheaper ones. The filling didn't cost almost anything (we had alot of polystyrene beads left from our polystyrene sculptures so it was also a great way to recycle)
