Lions, and Tigers, and Bears! Oh My! Just Bears

Title is from one of my favorite movies - couldn't resist.

Here's some pics of my first dipped bears and I like your honest opinions please. I have to admit I just didn't get this dipped bear thing until I dipped some myself. I have these sitting in the basement waiting for bags to arrive and boy does my basement smell great.

A shout out to soapgirl10 for her lesson on bear dipping. Thanks!

Thanks for compliments. I'm shipping the witches hat bear to my SIL so I taped plastic over the little pieces in the pumpkin in case you're wondering. I don't know if they'll sell around here but if they don't I've got a start on my Christmas gifts. LOL

Which brings up a question to those who make and ship bears. Where ever you touch them the wax turns 'frosty" white. What kind of condition does the bear arrive in when you ship it? Do you send directions for fixing the frosting if it happens?

Thanks

babygirl - google "wax dipped bears" and you'll find numerous sites with instructions. Or search the forums and you'll find all kinds of information including suggested scents to use. Here are a few links.
