about me

Hi, My name is Gertie Keijdener.

I'm a WAHM, work at home mum.

I have 3 big kids, 2 boy's and one girl,

a dog, 2 cat's, 28 koi, o, and a husband.

I have been making bears since 1995.

I was bitten by the bear bug after purchasing a kit from the local bear fair. I started to make my own bears and had great fun doing that.

Then I thought I try ebay. en voila the bears went all over the world.

I really love the contact with the bearmum's all over the world, therefore I would never say no to selling over Internet.

I hope you enjoy my whoezel's and the other family's...

Bear hugs and doggy kisses.... GERTIE.

Hoi, mag ik mij even voorstellen, mijn naam is Gertie Keijdener.

Ik ben moeder van 3 kids, getrouwd, berenmaken is mijn fulltime job.

Ik maak beren al vanaf 1995, heb al paar keer op beursen gestaan, maar vanaf dat ik op ebay ben gaan verkopen ben ik daar mee gestopt.( Ik durf geen autoweg te rijden)

Ik verkoop voornamelijk in Amerika, maar ook in Duitsland en Belgie, Engeland, noem maar op..

Vind de contacten van over de hele wereld zo leuk, je houd er echt leuke berenvrienden aan over.

Ik hoop dat jullie mijn website leuk vinden... laat eens wat horen

groetjes Gertie en alle whoezel's.
