UPDATE.......

Bringing You Up to Date 18th May 2009 Less than 2 weeks to go until the "BLACK AND WHITE BALL" ONLINE SHOW LIVE FROM MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA 8 am 1st June - 7th June, 2009 There will be many new bears and critters on offer exclusively at the "Black and White Ball" Online Show. This is a completely new concept in Online Shows where it runs over a week and the bears and critters for sale will be presented individually and not in Artist's Booths as before. It is a "Masked Ball", where you will not know who has made the bear or critter until you actually contact the artist during the show, so it should be a lot of fun!! Please visit the official show website http://www.teddybearsandcritters.com/blackandwhiteballvenue.htm and if you have any questions, please ask! An Official Sneak Peek is available at http://www.teddybearsandcritters.com/apps/photos/album?albumid=5413921 . Most of the Artists have only 3 new pieces included in the official Sneak Peek, as The Australian Creative Design Awards will also be featured as part of the Online Show. There is also a Public Choice Competition and I encourage you to vote for your favourite piece. The competition pieces cannot be viewed at all until the Online Show officially opens, all I can tell you is that each entry is either a bear or critter, all the entries will also be available for sale and they are all black and white!! As with previous online shows, my own new pieces will not be available to view on my website. These exclusive new creations will only be available to purchase at the official Online Show. You can check the starting time for your neck of the woods here http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc New pieces will be added daily, according to the daily "Dance Card" and for your convenience I will email the "Black & White Ball" Online Show link to you when it opens for business. How to Purchase at the Online Show To purchase though the official Online Show website just click on the email link provided on each bear/critters page. The first person to contact me by email once the Online Show has officially opened will have the the first opportunity to secure each piece. Please include - the NAME of the piece you would like to secure in the SUBJECT LINE of your email - POSTAL ADDRESS for shipping and optional insurance calculations Once the final cost has been calculated you have a choice of payment options - PayPal - International/ Australian collectors Direct Bank Deposit - Australian collectors only Please Note - In keeping with the Online Show rules, a piece cannot be marked as "ADOPTED" until Payment has been confirmed! If you have any questions or suggestions, I would love to hear from you, Beary kind regards,
