"Stuff, Fluff, Dress 'n Love"....that's the theme at the new Benny's Bear Factory in Marietta.  Located in the Village at Old Trace Shopping Center on Dallas Hwy, the new store makes you feel like a kid again just walking through the doors. 

Benny's Bear Factory provides an interactive experience for children that allows them to pick out their very own animal or doll, stuff it at the enchanting stuffing machine and register it for adoption at the computer center.  They even offer stylish clothes for the new creations!  They offer 8 inch and 15 inch animals and dolls and most of the larger animals allow children to pick out their own "eyes" for an even more custom creation.

Anthony and Paula Bell opened the store on January 5th, 2008.  Anthony and Paula really have a heart for children.  They have always been active in their church, McEachern United Memorial Methodist, especially in children's programs.  They are also very active in the community with events and recreational activities that involve helping children.  They say they just enjoy making children happy and they wanted to create a place that was fun for children and parents without the hassle of going to the mall.  Paula says they just love seeing a child's smiling face when they make a new "friend" at Benny's Bear Factory.

Benny's Bear Factory also hosts birthday parties. There is a party area with colorful decorations and tables, and Benny the Bear will even make an appearance for the birthday guests!  Contact the store for more information about Birthday parties at 770-514-0606.

Anthony and Paula Bell are the owners of the new store and Tabitha Kernodle and Ginny Lee are managers.  Benny's Bear Factory also employs several high school students and Anthony and Paula's daughter, Alexandra, often helps out as well.  It's a family business that's family oriented.....and tons of fun!
