These teddy bears are designed to hold the cremated remains of a loved one. Is this a great idea or just tacky? Link -via Cynical-C

    Tacky. Very tacky.

    i mean, what happens when the dog decides to go to town on one of your teddies?

    The "Hold Me" sewn into the foot is exceptionally creepy... Especially if the deceased had the same tattoo of "Hold Me" on the bottom of his foot.

    Quite disturbing.

    "What a cute teddy bear!"
    "Yes, and it's made in China, by 6 years old girls"
    "Awwwwwwwww, so cute!"
    "Also, it contains the ashes of gran'ma. I miss gran'ma."
    "Awwwwwwwww, good for her."

    "Build-a-Bear" should have an Undertaker outfit.

    My father died in January and i can't bring myself to pick-up the urn yet (and i have a sick compulsion to shake it to see if it rattles), yeah, the teddy doesn't make it any better. Icky.

    I lost my baby boy earlier this year. If I had seen the adverts for "huggable urns" before that event I would of thought the same "tacky" but when something like that happens to you and all you want to do is hold your baby, they do their job. If it helps the individual cope with their grief than thats all that matters?!
