I'll have an invite to the wedding thanks!

It's a toy shop in the UK. They have these animals which have had their stuffing taken out so it's kinda like an empty shell. You pick the one you like, and you can add things like a small felt heart inside it, or a sound. Next, they put everything inside the bear and you go to someone who has the stuffing machine, and they stuff the bear and sew it up for you. In a way, it's quite magical because you're not just buying a generic bear that's been mass produced, you chose the bear and saw it get stuffed and started to give it a life.

Just for people in the US, it's here too. We can both enjoy building bears.

Oh I think I saw that in an Hannah Montana episode

I've done that several times. It's fun.

How do you make the sound to put in? I'm just curious, never been to build a bear. I want to though

You can select these sound buttons for them to put inside the toy. The recordable ones you press a button to record it and then do something else to keep it. It's not that great on busy days because you can end up with a lot of background noise.

Some build a bears have machines with blank sound chips. You use the touch screen to choose your song and you put the chip onto the machine and it loads the sound for you. You can also record your own through the machine and it's designed to drown out background noise

At my local one you have to do it manually. One of those machines would be awesome.
