• While the bear is firing, you will assemble the table and cake stand. You’ll get a demonstration from Cat on how to paint the teapot, dishes, and cookies.
• Once the bears are baked and cooled, it’s time to pain the fur! You’ll use simple but effective methods guided by Cat.
• Finally, you’ll be able to dress your teddy bear for her tea party in an elegant party tutu and party hat.
