Year: 2023 Best Friends Exclusive

Designer: Isabelle Lee

Purchased From: CB Direct

Thoughts: I was lucky enough to grab Festoon when she popped up for sale. I love her bright pink more than I expected to. While I'll always prefer the darker dragons, she's going to be a lovely pop of color on my shelves.

GRUMBLES

Arrival Date: 4/27/24

Size: 15.5"

Year: 2023 Secret Collection 

Designer: Isabelle Lee

Purchased From: QVC

Cost: $139

Thoughts: I've been looking forward to this guy ever since I saw him months ago. He's adorable. He reminds me a little bit of a modern Kuma, who's one of my fave older bears. 

ROSE MOON

Arrival Date: 4/1/24

Size: 15"

Year: 2023 

Designer: Isabelle Lee

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: $133

Thoughts: For someone that has pink pretty far down a list of fave colors, I have an awful lot of pink bears. I think I have at least 20. So it's no small thing for me to say Rose Moon is my new favorite pink bear. (Like the majority of her fur is pink. Otherwise, my fave would be Kirsteen.) Harvest Moon and Blue Moon are happy that their third has finally arrived and she's gorgeous in person. I really love her shades and her expression. 

PIGGLEDY

Arrival Date: 4/1/24

Size: 9"

Year: 2023 

Designer: Charlie

Purchased From: BAMS

Cost: Free with rewards (Retail $56)

Thoughts: Tiny little Piggledy finally came out so he can sit with big bro Higgledy. Choosing this tiny fellow was an easy choice. There was something about his little face that I fell in love with immediately. He fits right in the palm of my hand and I think he may well be my favorite CB of this size.
