Yes, they are furry bears. I asked a long time ago if anyone had some leftovers of fake fur and received enough to make the bears. I made the outfits and used buttons to accessorize the darlings. I confess it isn't the most advanced applique job (newbie to applique) however, the boys don't know the difference and they are thrilled. The youngest is the "special boy" he has PDD-NOS and struggles with some areas of life. He has his own bear he has carried since birth named "Bear" so this was a joy for him. Big brother hung it on the curtain pole.
