Started in October 1993 by Linda & Robin Cook,
LINCRAFTS LTD
supply collectable wildlife & teddy bears
by mail order worldwide.

We stock an extensive selection from : Bearingtons Bears & Bearington Baby. The Ganz Cottage & Boyds Bears ,

Complementing the bears is a vast range of realistic wild & domestic animals & birds both large and small
rivalling that of mother nature herself each piece being a "Work of art in plush" made by:
Hansa Toy International,Dowman Soft Touch, Ark Soft Toys & The Suma Collection by Ravensden .

2006 we decided to combine our love of cats & dogs into a new business venture
"The Cats Whiskers Gifts"(CWG Pet Supplies).

This sister site offers cat, dog & small animal toys, litters & foods from leading manufacturers
& is growing in both popularity & diversity .

Also in 2006 we successfully negotiated with Boyds(U.S.) to be able to import their range of Bears & Accessories ,
thus allowing us to continue supplying collectors here in the UK long after the closing of Boyds(UK)in 2005.

Sadly after the 2008 range we were no longer in a position to supply due to Boyds not being available for export to the UK.

2008/9 we also started to sell a few baby items,which within a few months snowballed into quite a large selection,mainly from the Bearington Baby Range,but also complimented by a few Dowman Soft Touch items as well.

Dec 2009 Sadly it was decided after much deliberation that for 2010 we would no longer continue with the Toy Fairs as we could not devote the time & effort required to do these demanding shows. The businesses are expanding fast & the overheads for doing a fair have far outweighed the rewards.
We will obviously miss a lot of fellow traders & customers, but as the man said "Business is Business".
On a more positive note we decided to extend our range of soft toys & we now carry the "Ark Soft Toy Collection" of realistic & some comical characters.

August 2010 saw Lincrafts become Lincrafts Ltd & to yet again expand the ranges carried to now include "The Suma Collection " by Ravensden, a wonderful range of soft & cuddly animals,birds etc.
We now have our very own exclusive teddy bear puppet "Mortimer" designed by Linda & we are hoping to add other items as time allows.

April 2011 Due to increased sales & ever expanding inventory & ranges we have had to move warehousing to a much bigger,more better equiped unit for the soft toys,
but still keeping our existing units for the pet side, as we will be expanding this,as and when, time permits.

We are continually striving to give our customers the finest products & the best service possible & will continue to expand & evolve always looking to the future.

an efficient but personal service, that is
" Constantly moving forward,
Never standing still. "
