Bearista Fireplace Decorations

We have this thing on our fireplace that I got from Pottery Barn. So many people have this wall accessory that it is kind of embarrassing, but I still like it anyway. It is fun to change up the decorations for it during the different seasons. So, I decided my winter/holiday Bearista magnets would make perfect decorations for this! I put some red yarn in the bottom of the glasses with the bears. In the other glasses I put tissue Christmas paper, little balls of yarn and some gold ornament balls that we had. Then I made some little poofy yarn things to add to a few of the holders. I wanted to keep it kind of random. It looks pretty cute in person. It might be kind of hard to tell how cute it is from the photos. I am including one close up, so you can see the detail better. Click the photos to enlarge. 🙂

Bearista Tree 2010 Final Update (Probably)

Well, I think this is probably the final update for the Bearista tree. I found some more bears to put on and I found some little red ornaments and I added ribbon and put them on the tree too! I’m pretty sure I won’t be adding anything more. I think the little red ornaments look pretty good though. I’m glad I went to the trouble of adding them. I’m not too sure they are very visible in the small photo though. Click the photo to enlarge. 🙂

Last year Starbucks really outdid themselves with this cute couple. Here are the plaid Santa boy and girl Bearistas. The boy is the 86th edition and the girl is the 87th edition of the Bearista series. The boy has plaid pants, a red santa coat, a big santa buckle belt and santa hat while the girl is dressed up in a satin red dress with a plaid santa coat and a red cap with a poinsetta flower attached. They both have the Bearista patch on their feet and their coats are almost military-esque with a hint of gold. The girl has eyelashes and rosy cheeks too! Click the photos to enlarge. 🙂

This is the 38th edition of the Bearista series—a big, beautiful, fluffy Christmas bear wearing a dark, velvet red and white santa hat with holly and a dark, velvet red and white scarf with holly. This bear’s fur is really soft and cuddly, and he has a super cute face too! I wish the internet had feel-a-vision, because this bear is just so nice and soft to touch! Click the image to enlarge. 🙂

2003 was a great year for Rudolph! Starbucks came out with the Rudolph small bearista and also a larger one. He has a nice red nose, a red scarf, and of course antlers. He has a Rudolph patch on his foot and on his other foot is the Starbucks Bearista year indicator medal. This is the 28th edition in the Bearista series. He also has a fluffy reindeer tail in the back and fluffy reindeer ears. Click the photos to enlarge. 🙂

‘Tis the season to put your bears on the tree! 🙂 This year we decided to decorate the Christmas tree with the winter bears from my collection (plus a couple of Hello Kitty ornaments). It looks way cuter in person, but the photos give a peek. 🙂 Click the photos to enlarge. 🙂

Here are the OH-SO-Adorable bearista bears from the Winter of 2007. They are the 68th (boy) and 69th (girl) edition bears in the bearista collection. They are both holding their own little cuddle bears and they are all cozy in their pajamas and slippers. The girl bearista has a pink bow and pink and red snowflake pajamas and the boy bearista has a red and white striped stocking cap with red pajamas. They both have red slippers with fluffy white on the inside. They seem ready to sit by the fire and listen to a nice winter-time story before bed! Click the photos to enlarge. 🙂

Here is the 2008 Beijing Destination Series Bearista. She is the 40th edition in the Starbucks Bearista series. She is waving a Beijing flag that is in English on the back, and (I’m assuming) Chinese on the front. She has rosy cheeks and is wearing a light blue polo shirt and khaki skirt with white under garments. Her red Beijing sweatshirt is tied around her waist and she has a red cap as well. She also has some fabulous eyelashes! Click the photos to enlarge. 🙂

This is a larger size bearista and he is totally awesome! Not only is he adorable with the plaid scarf, snowman suit, top hat and carrot nose, but he also has a wind-up music box inside of him! When you wind him up he plays the song “We Wish You a Merry Christmas!” He is the 8th edition in the bearista series and he was born in 1999. Click the image for a larger photo. 🙂
