My Story…
I founded Custom Cushions in 2020 to merge the sentimental clothing of a loved one with exceptional craftsmanship, crafting keepsake memory bears and cushions right here in Great Britain. After the sudden loss of a cherished family member, I felt deeply moved and inspired to embark on a transformative journey. My vision was to turn my Grandad's beloved clothing into timeless heirlooms. This meaningful endeavor became a powerful outlet for me to navigate the overwhelming waves of grief and loss, ultimately bringing me solace and purpose.
As I created special keepsake cushions for myself and my family, I realised there was an opportunity to expand into the realm of keepsakes, which led me to teddy bears. The warm response I received from my cushions inspired me to include these beloved stuffed animals, allowing even more people to cherish special memories in a plush, huggable form.
Each keepsake is meticulously crafted to the highest standard, utilising the clothing of your loved ones to create a truly personal and bespoke creation. Every bear is intricately designed and lovingly handmade, reflecting your unique preferences and memories, making them the perfect keepsake.
