Boots, Dustbin and Graduation bear

Firstly Dustbin

Dustbin was found  in an old cigar box in an attic of a house being cleared out, next to a very old curtain with a large hole in  looking suspiciously like the same material as Dustbin!!!

 Is he destined for the rubbish bag or could you give him a home???

Dustbin was indeed made out of an old curtain, I am not sure whether he is mohair or not. He is just over 5" tall and has one black glass eye and a vintage black button for the other eye. He has a very sparsely embroidered black nose and stick like limbs. He is filled with kapok , with steel shot in his body for a nice heavy feel. I have plucked, shaded, handpainted, waxed, added coloured stitches and nearly crucified poor Dustbin to give him his special character and he wears a rusty old bell around his neck. He is fully cotterpin jointed

He is fully jointed with black glass eyes and an embroidered, waxed nose. He  is filled with kapok and steel shot and comes wearing a graduation hat and scroll. I have added shading to his face and paws
