Naomi

We found Naomi at a car boot sale in West Wittering, about a year ago. She was tucked in among the bric-a-brac, pink fur a bit flat from being bagged up, but her embroidered nose and stitched mouth were still perfect.

She’s a Build-A-Bear, which you can tell straight away from the shape of her paws. Pink with flashes of other colours running through the fur. Fluffy in the way only Build-A-Bears go fluffy.

I picked her out a set of pink pyjamas and a matching zebra-printed eye mask. Naomi looked chuffed with the whole outfit.

She came with us to Surbiton Festival on the 27th of September and went home with someone that same afternoon. about a year ago now. We hope she’s getting plenty of sleepovers.
