Teddy Bear _ Cosmos Bear _ Medium Pink Cosmos Affiliate icon

This delightful design is subtle and spectacular! A stunning, medium pink cosmos is nestled in a round of magnificent, metallic lace that almost looks like layers of delicate butterflies. "Cosmos" is Greek for "balanced universe". This lovely flower is representative of order and beauty, peace and tranquility. It has the added distinction of being October's Birth Flower and is also symbolic of the Second (2nd) Wedding Anniversary. A lot of people don't know that Teddy Bears came about as the result of a hunting trip in Mississippi back in 1902. Then President, Theodore Roosevelt, hadn't had much luck hunting bear that day. Some men from his hunting party cornered a bear for him to shoot. He felt this was rather unsportsmanlike and refused to shoot the bear. A couple of days later, a political cartoonist named Clifford Berryman published a cartoon in the Washington Post that poked a little fun at the President's refusal to shoot the bear. A shop owner in Brooklyn saw the cartoon and came up with the idea to make a stuffed bear and dedicate it to the president. He called the stuffed animal, "Teddy's Bear". Later, the shop owner, Morris Michtom, obtained permission from the President to use his name and mass produced the toy bears. This delightful bear is an excellent option for birthdays any time of year!
