My name is Cornelia de Brabander, born on
the 10th of January 1953 (Capricorn!) in
Scheveningen that's near Den Haag, where I live at this
moment.
I have been always creative and I was always good in
doing needlework.
When I was only five years old, I was knitting and sewing
doll clothes.
Around the age of twelth I made complete outfits for
a doll like Barbie.
After finishing school I did a lot with drawing and painting.
In my spare time I make my own clothing and I do a lot
of other form of creativity.
Like origami, making X-mas Cards, embroidery etc..
Everything I want to make, I make. And if I cannot make
it, than I'll try it.
In 1990 I took the initiative to make teddy bears.
I always loved teddy bears and I also collect them.
The first four teddy bears were made out of a old coat
and the pattern was one of
a cotton teddy bear out of a magazine.And yes, the development
goes very quickly.
Soon after those four bears I started to design my teddy
bears.
Not only teddy bears, sometimes I make other animals
too. I make also large teddy bears
and mini bears. But I love to make mini bears. The result
I can see much sooner.
Besides making teddy bears and being creative, I also
love reading, drawing and computers.
