Vintage Hospital 2

Ambrosia and her friends rushed to help when this poor teddy arrived. He may have looked in a right state, but Ambrosia and the others could see the hidden potential. They repaired his poor legs and right paw; then they added lovely new pads. Teddy had lost his voice, so an new growl was also in order. Then the real magaic was worked. Teddy was washed and washed until his fur sparkled, and then he was brushed to make him wonderfully fluffy again. Ambrosia carefully re-embroidered his nose and mouth following the original thread pattern, and gave him new glass eyes. 

Jimmy Dog had been loved so much that he'd lost pretty much all of his fur, his nose had vanished as had an eye, his tail and ears were hanging off, and he just didn't feel sweet in the slightest. Jimmy was completely re-covered and then given a new nose and eyes. His old tail and ears were covered and then stitched back on, and Ambrosia even made sure that his original maker's label was transferred to his new coat. 

When Cat arrived, he was literally falling to bits and his owner was distraught. New material was chosen to match Cat's original colours and Ambrosia covered him completely - bar an ear, at his owner's request! Cat felt and looked absolutely amazing and now had many more years of cuddles left in him!

King John the Teddy was in need of quite a bit of assistance! His head had been sewn on crooked, his poor feet and hands were rather sore and he was feeling a bit floppy. The bears set to work. King John was given a new growl, he was fattened up, and he was cleaned. Next, Ambrosia found some beautiful new glass eyes for him, and re-embroidered his nose. His head was put back on properly and then they all set to work on his pads. The home repairs were removed, and he soon had some lovely new ones! 

Sometimes, just the simplest of treatments at Ambrosia Place can have the most amazing effects. This gorgeous WEndy Boston teddy simply needed a really good splash in the huge bubble tub and a good brush. His muzzle had been kissed so much that it was disintegrating, so Ambrosia covered his poor face with newmaterial and then very carefully embroidered a new nose and mouth. 

Old teddies always seem to have problems with their hands and feet, and this bear was no exception! The stuffing had almost gone from his right leg, and it was pouring out of his left. He'd also lost stuffing from other parts of his body, and his eyes had disappeared at some point along with his growl. Ambrosia and her friends set to work immediately. Poor teddy's left foot was made all sweet again, and his right was filled once more. He was given new foot pads but he wanted to keep his hands just as they were. He was given a new voice and Ambrosia found some lovely glass eyes for him. He did feel so much better afterwards!

Sometimes, home repairs cause considerably more damage than the original issue. face and nose were badly repaired, and he'd also managed to lose his right arm along the way! His squeaker no longer worked, and he had several holes. Ambrosia and her friends gave him a massive hug and then set to work Ambrosia very carefully patched up several holes on his chest, right arm and left foot, and then she made and attached a new arm. Ambrosia patched his face and the back of his head with the new material, and then she added a new eye. Finally, teddy had a new nose and mouth embroidered. 

And another Wendy Boston came for osme help. These bears are often filled with a nasty, degraded foam which is quite literally toxic. This poor teddy had become alomot compoletely flat as a result. The bears removed the horrible stuff, gave him a wonderful bubble bath in the huge tub, and then filled him with fresh clouds. His muzzle, just like the bear above, had been kissed so much that there was practically nothing left. Ambrosia soon made bhim feelbetter again. He was astonished when he saw his new, handsome self in the mirror following his treatment!

The bears were all delighted when a Hungarian bear came to stay! He was extremely old and extremely dirty, and the bears set to work as there was so much to do. He was given an external clean and brush; Ambrosia couldn't stop smiling when she saw his golden colour coming up when the dirt started to disappear. Agus also needed new pads, and his ears were a terrible mess. Matching inners were added, and then his ears were stithed back on nice and neatly. As a final touch, Ambrosia carefully re-embroidered his nose and mouth, and found a Royal Stewart bit of material to make him a rough-and-ready scarf! Angus felt wonderful!

Poor teddy arrived at Ambrosia Place is a right old mess, so much so that his owner had wrapped him in a tea-towel to prevent any more of his stuffing from escaping! The material of teddy's head was wearing away, his ankles were disintegrating, and he just needed a bit of TLC. Teddy's legs were stuffed again and his ankles were made better. Poor patches were added to his arms, and he was given lovely new pads all round. Ambrosia gave him a new voice (he was especially pleased with this!) and then everyone set to work on teddy's head. Finally, his original eyes were re-positioned, and Ambrosia herself stitched him a new nose and mouth. 

Poor teddy had bene ,oved so much that he was blind, deaf and dumb! Ambrosia and her friends gave him a lovely clean, new glass eyes, a new growl and mouth, new ears and a huge cuddle. A personalised satin bow finished teddy's spa treatment to perfection!

The bears were, once again, delighted when a teddy friend came to stay at Ambrosia Place. Teddy had managed to lose both ears and an eye during his life journey thus far. He also felt extremely grubby, and there was a hole in his right foot pad. His nose was re-embroidered so it, too, was lovely and black, his floppy limbs were plumped up, and he had the most fantastic time in the bubbly bath. Ambrosia herself stitched on a new foot pad and gave him the final brush. 

Ambrosia and her friends really couldn't believe their eyes when an old Toffee bear from the 1950s radio programme 'Listen with Mother' arrived! He'd been so loved that he was falling to bits and had, of course, managed to lose his characteristic red hat and scarf along the way. The bears added a bit of stuffing to regain his old shape, and then covered him completely in mohair chosen by his owner. He was given new glass eyes, a new ear and Ambrosia herself took great delight in re-embroidering his little nose and mouth. To complete his original look, the bears asked someone to knit him a hat and scarf, just as it used to be. 

Ambrosia has always had a soft spot for Chiltern bears, and was delighted when anmother came to stay for the usual pads, clean and growler treatments. Teddy had also managed to lose an eye during his adventures, and this was soon rectified! He felt absolutly wonderful when he saw himself in the mirror!

This absolutely gorgeous teddy arrived at Ambrosia Place very soon after. During his travels, he'd lost an eye, the other was hanging on by a thread, his nose and voice had vanished, his pads were in tatters and his little muzzle was ripped.. They decided to give him a clean and a brush to start with, then he was given a lovely new growl. Ambrosia added new eyes, and gave him a new muzzle; then she carefully embroidered a new nose, all ready to be kissed. Finbally, teddy's feet were fixed and he was given lovely new pads.

Ambrosia always loves it when special teddies arrive and this was no exception. She'd restored several of these 'Sooty' -type bears before and believes they are East European silk bears from around WW2. This wonderful example had managed to lose a leg and an ear aduring his many adventures and was absolutely filthy! He thoroughly enjoyed being covered in bubbles, dried and then brushed, and his fur gleamed gold, just as it had 80 years ago. Ambrosia re-attached his leg and ear and gave him a huge hug. 

Teddy arrived feeling less than his handsome self, so his friends at Ambrosia Place set to work. Teddy wasgiven new pads and eyes, and his face was made all lovely again before Ambrosia herself embroidered a new nose and mouth. Teddy felt lovely after his treatment!

Poor Teddy Bell wasn't feeling very sweet at all when he arrived at Ambrosia Place. The bears gave him a hug and then set to work. Stuffing was added t plump him up, and then he was covered in the material supplied by his owner. New eyes, muzzle and a 'Teddy Bell ribbon later, he felt brand new!

When poor teddy arrived at Ambrosia Place, he was feeling rather sorry for himself. His left leg was spilling its stuffing, his feet were sore, he'd managed to lose his voice along the way, and he was rather grubby. The bears set to work and could see that he was incredibly handsome underneath his troubles! Ambrosia found the perfect growl and gave him a lovely clean and brush. His left leg and foot were stuffed, and then he was given new pads all round. 

The bears were delighted when a glove puppet called Sooty came to stay at Ambrosia Place. He had been loved so much that all of his fur was gone; he'd also managed to lose his eyes and ears along the way during his life adventures. New glass eyes, a new covering, fleece ears and a new nose and mouth later, Sooty looked as if Time had sped backwards and he was all new again! To complete his new look, Sooty was awarded a red, satin ribbon to match his bright red nose. Doesn't he look incredibly handsome?

She very carefully stiched on some lovely new pads for him. Finally, his nose and mouth were tidied up. Teddy couldn't believe it when he saw himself in the mirror afterwards!

The bears always love it when a Chiltern acomes to stay at Ambrosia Place. He'd managed to lose an arm, his feet were ripped and the stuffing was falling out of his legs. His voice ws no more and there were so many things wrong that he just felt deflated. The bears gave him a huge hug, and then they all set to work. Soon, he had a new voice, and a new arm. New stuffing was added where needed and his new pads looked lovely. He felt so much better when he saw himself in the mirror!

Albert had really been through the wars. Someone had glued on some awful eyes, he was really dirty and a couple of his joints were extremely loose. The bears cleaned and brushed him, fixed his joints and gave him some beautiful, new glass eyes. A personalised satin ribbon was the perfect, final touch!

Poor Bruin, a Chiltern Hugmee, wasn't feeling very sweet at all when he arrived at Ambrosia Place. His left arm was shredded and his right had also been badly repaired. The bears reconstructed and patched his arms, and then his owner decided that a new voice and new padswould also be perfect!

Leo the Lion was not very happy at all; he'd been loved so much over the years that his mane had simply worn away. The bears gave him a new one - and a matching, furry end to his tail - and he was soon feeling much more like King of the Animals than previously!

The bears were delighted when yet another bear friend came to stay for a spell. Teddy had been loved so much that he was in a right state!

The bears were amazed and delighted when a HUGE Merrythought Cheeky bear came to stay. He was originally a pyjama case, but his owner wanted him changed into a normal teddy. A lovely clean and brush later, he was filed with clouds, and his poorly left foot pad was re-covered. Isn't he wonderful?

Kenny Ted was given a very warm welcome upon his arrival at Ambrosia Palce. At 80 years old, he was still looking fantastic, but needed a bit of help! H'ed lost his eyes and growl, was feeling grubbu and his pads were worn. The bears set to work and son had him feeling wonderful again!

The bears were delighted when a sweet Pedigree teddy arrived at Ambrosia Place. He was in quite a state and could hardly sit up as he had virtually no stuffing in his tummy and his joints were incredibly loose. They all set to work. Teddy's joints were tightenend, he was given a new voice and all of his limbs, and his tummy, were stuffed so he could sit up once more. He also needed more stuffing in his muzzle and a new nose and mouth. 

The bears at Ambrosia Place felt utterly delighted, as well as extremely privileged, when an American 1920s bear arrived for a spell. Poor Joey's eyes had been removed immediately by his first owner for safety reasons and, once Ambrosia had finished working on him, he saw properly for the first time in almost a century! He was given new paw pads, a few lost claws were re-embroidered, as was his nose - which had been kissed away - and he was treated to an external clean and brush. He felt the decades drop away and was so happy when he saw himself in the mirror!

Ambrosia couldn't believe her lucky eyes when she saw a 1940s Merrythougth at the door. He'd managed to lose an eye along the way, his voice was no more and his arms had lost all of their stuffing. His pads were also non-existant or in a right old mess. Ambrosia gave him a lovely external clean and brush to bring up his fur, and then she gave him a new voice and eye. Some of her friends helped to stuff his arms and then there were new pads all round.

This gorgeous little bear came to stay at Ambrosia Place for the usual restoration work. His head had been porrly stitched back on and so it was properly re-jointed.
