A memorial project made by hand

Charlie Teddies

From Charlie, with love.

Handmade leather teddy bear keychains created in memory of our daughter, Charlie, and donated to families experiencing pregnancy and infant loss.

Charlie Teddy photo coming soon We’ll replace this with one of the first finished leather teddies.

Our Charlie

Her memory is at the heart of this.

Charlie Teddies were created in memory of our daughter, Charlie. This project is one small way for us to carry her memory forward and offer something tangible to families walking through pregnancy or infant loss.

We will add more of Charlie’s story here when we are ready to share it. The goal is for this page to remain personal, gentle, and centered on remembrance.

Why Charlie Teddies

A small keepsake with a lot of meaning.

Each teddy is cut from leather, finished by hand, and given as a remembrance piece. The name “Charlie Teddies” is intentional: they are little teddies from Charlie.

01

Handmade

Each leather teddy is made individually, not mass-produced.

02

Donated

Our first priority is providing teddies at no cost through infant-loss support groups.

03

Remembered

Each teddy is meant to be a small reminder that a baby’s life and memory matter.

Giving Charlie Teddies

Made to be given.

We are beginning by donating Charlie Teddies to local pregnancy and infant-loss groups for families to receive at no cost.

As the project grows, we’ll add participating organizations and information for groups interested in receiving teddies.

Additional teddies

In the future, families may be able to purchase additional teddies for spouses, grandparents, siblings, or friends. If we offer that option, it will be listed here separately from the donated program.

No sales link is active yet.

CMD

The meaning behind CMD

Charlie is part of the name, too.

CMD Leather Goods was named using Charlie’s initials. Leatherworking became a creative outlet, and Charlie Teddies grew naturally from that connection.

Charlie Teddies is a memorial project made through CMD Leather Goods, but the focus here will always remain on Charlie, remembrance, and the families receiving the teddies.

Stay connected

Follow the project as it grows.

We’ll share finished teddies, donation updates, participating organizations, and more of Charlie’s story as the project develops.
