Top 10: Reasons Willy's Ugly Sweater is Missing
Thursday, December 19, 2013
Willy Shags and the ugly Christmas sweater our blog readers selected for him
When the big teddy bears at Giant Teddy heard Willy Shags was going to ask Santa for yet another ugly Christmas sweater, they got busy planning how it could "disappear"...
Top 10 Explanations for Willy's Missing Ugly Sweater
10. We saw a UFO take it away in a spaceship.
9. Rudolph had a runny nose and Santa was forced to let him use your ugly sweater as a reindeer hanky.
8. There was a poor little orphan walking uphill 20 miles in the snow to school and naturally we were sure you'd want the little orphan to be warm so we handed over your ugly sweater in a gesture of goodwill. The orphan turned out to be a bit of a fibber and we haven't seen either one again. OK it might have been a trash truck but it did look very very sad and kind of like an orphan...
7. A freak kitchen fire broke out when DeeDee Cuddles was baking cookies and your ugly sweater was used to put out the flames. Don't worry, it didn't feel a thing - and it's in a better place now.
6. A kitten was stuck in a tree, and we were using your ugly sweater to wrap the kitten in to rescue her... and, well, you know how cats feel about yarn and baubles and shiny things and your sweater has it all... one thing led to another and we managed to save part of one sleeve. But then the kitten threw up a fur ball on it, and we lost the sleeve at the dry cleaner. These things happen.
5. We entered it as a contestant on "Survivor" and the long and short of it is, it didn't survive.
4. Your ugly sweater was out hiking and had a run-in with a mountain lion. It wasn't pretty. But you'd have been proud, it put up a heck of a fight, Willy. Heck of a fight.
3. Someone attempted to steal our candy and so we flashed your ugly sweater at him, and he was blinded by the glare and unable to flee the scene. Word from the hospital is the thief may never recover full vision in the right eye where a flash from the tinsel trim burned his retina. A full sweater hero parade is planned but first, it has to stay locked up in the police evidence room. What rotten luck.
2. The space station needed your sweater - ask not what your sweater can do for you, but what your sweater can do somewhere else far far away from here - uh, I mean for your country.
1. Sunny Cuddles stole your ugly sweater and used it to polish up his sports car. And we are telling on him because he won't ever let us drive it...

Willy Shags and The Ugly Christmas Sweaters
Tuesday, December 17, 2013
Help Willy Shags Decide on an Ugly Christmas Sweater...
Every year at Christmas time, all the big teddy bears at Giant Teddy get the holiday spirit. DeeDee Cuddles starts baking teddy bear Christmas cookies. Sunny Cuddles starts to behave himself knowing that Santa is watching. BooBoo Shags starts the official countdown calendar to Christmas.
And Willy Shags gets out all of his ugly Christmas sweaters.
He wears them to staff meetings. He wears them to lunch. He wears them to all the Christmas parties and holiday celebrations. He loves his sweaters, and it seems the uglier they are, the more he loves them.
The other bears have tried hiding them. It didn't work. One year, Sunny Cuddles and Marty Shags listed them all on ebay but Willy found out and didn't speak to them for a whole week. They told him they were sorry. He gave them each an ugly sweater for Christmas that year, and they've never tried anything like that again. All of the big teddy bears have pretty much accepted that the sweaters are here to stay.
This year, Willy has found 5 especially - uh, "lovely" (truly ugly) sweaters, for sale on various Internet sites.

Giant Teddy Gift Guide For Sweethearts
Monday, December 16, 2013
Love is a beautiful thing and should be celebrated all year long. We have some very romantic bears at Giant Teddy who love nothing more than being part of a great love story. Whether you are dating someone new and special or celebrating many years of wedded bliss, our sweet cuddly teddy bears are the perfect gift for you both. Who says "I love you" gifts are just for February 14th? They make excellent holiday and Christmas gifts, too!
Love is personal - your teddy bear gift can be, too.
Celebrate with our Sweetheart Love You Personalized Holiday Ornament Gift Set which has a heart shaped ornament with both of your names on it and is delivered by our sweet huggable Coco Cuddles, a big 38 inch teddy bear wearing a cute red bow tie. You can hang this on the Christmas tree together every year, and when Christmas is over? Leave the ornament out hanging on the wall, in your office, in your locker, or anywhere you want to see your sweetie's name each day.
We have lots of personalization options for most of our big teddy bears, so just ask us if you need ideas or really want a specific color bear in a specific style shirt and we'll see what we can do.
Here are some cuties that will wear a shirt with your message on it - put your names, say I love You, or any unique message up to 5 words to tell someone how special they are. You'll notice that, "Will You Marry Me?" fits nicely into the word count!
Say it with heart.

Giant Teddy Bear Gift Guide: For Him

The Giant Teddy Gift Guide
For Him
He may be big and tough, but there's a lot of sentimental softie in there too and what better way to touch his heart than with a Giant Teddy Bear gift?
He'll love knowing how much you care about him - from the baby son you change diapers for to the man you love with all your heart or even the Grandpa who has told you stories your whole life, this is a gift they'll always love because it reminds them of you!
Most of our big teddy bears come in many sizes, and we offer personalization for most of our teddy bears over 25in so be sure to contact us with any questions or for more information on personalizing your gift.
Here is our favorite teddy bear gift lineup for guys this year:
Sunny Cuddles is the ultimate teddy bear. He has mocha brown fur that is super soft and touchable. Sunny is silly and sweet, a bit of a class clown but always ready to be serious when he needs to be. He loves travel and adventure or just staying home to watch a good movie. Sunny Cuddles comes in sizes all the way up to a life size teddy bear 72inches tall. If you ask him to go see your favorite guy, he'll have his teddy bear bags packed before you know it! You can even personalize him (see details in the next section.)
Red hot Riley Chubs is a perfect shade of red teddy bear and comes in lots of size options. He is wonderful at Christmas, Valentine's Day and anytime you need a spunky red bear to remind your guy how much you care about him. Riley is soft and cuddly and will give him something to hug when you can't be with him.
Willy Shags is quite the character. He feels his rich emerald green fur is the best color for.... anything! Whatever holiday or event, he'll find a reason that green is THE color to be. During Christmas, he loves to show off his ugly sweater collection, and eat Christmas candy. He really shines on St. Patrick's Day and we have a number of personalized shirt options if your guy is a fan of the Emerald Isle and all things Irish. Willy, like most of our bears, comes in many size options and is super soft and huggable.
Coco Cuddles has snowy white fur and an adorable checked bow, or a green bow if you choose him in his special holiday wear! Coco comes in sizes from cuddly armful to traffic-stopping huge so that you can make the impression on your special fella that is just what you are going for - including a personalized shirt.
Personalized Teddy Bears...we've talked a lot about them, now here are some for you to meet!
Sunny Cuddles is a mocha brown teddy bear (we told you about him above!) and he'll make an excellent bear to hang out with your guy when you can't be with him. Personalize Sunny with a variety of shirts including this classic paw print version, with a message up to 5 words long. Sunny comes in many sizes and most of them can be personalized.
Diamond Shags is wearing a cute red Santa hat and a custom Christmas personalized shirt this year for an adorably personal and special gift for him. You can put a message up to 5 words on his shirt, or a name, or a holiday message - or a combination of ideas! And won't you look awesome in a photo next to this big personalized teddy bear for him to keep on his phone?
.
The personalized ornament for our sweetheart gift set, personalized with both of your names - leave it up all year long as a wall charm!
