| Janet: The Avon Exclusive Janet came out in the late 1997/early 1998 timeframe and is the first Avon Cherished Teddy ever released. Reminiscent of Daisy, Janet is a bear with hat and has the saying You're Sweet As A Rose. While the prototype has blue and red flowers on top of her hat, Janet was released with white and red flowers. |
| Margy: Avon's first Christmas Cherished Teddy, Margy, came out as a Christmas exclusive in 1998. Her saying is I'm Wrapping a Little Holiday Joy To Send Your Way. |
|
| Ava: Since Avon has been selling cosmetic and related products for decades, it was only appropriate to have Ava, a bear with perfume who is all dressed up and ready to go! Ava came out in 1999, and her saying is YOU Make Me Beautiful Inside. Avon also has an Ava beanie with a pink heart and ribbon and the words "Ava" on her chest. |
