Hi, I’m Itsuko – the hands, heart, and soul behind Keepsake Bears Australia. Originally from Japan, I’ve been living in beautiful Cairns since 2007, and I’m a proud mum of three.
I take care of everything myself – from managing the shop and sewing each bear, to carefully packing and sending them off to their new homes.
I truly love what I do: turning your precious memories into something you can hold onto. Every bear is made with care, respect, and a whole lot of heart.
Thank you for trusting me with your special keepsakes.
