Firstly I hope everyone is happy and well, I have been super busy with orders and my beeswax range has also taken off. For which I am all very grateful , but I found time to make three dolls for the etsy shop.
I hope you like them. They are a joy to make and fun, but they do go quickly. There are a lot of new items in the online shop, so do check them out when you get time.
Sending you lots of love and light during these unusual times xxx

A dash of Halloween .....
I thought I would make a couple of dolls for Halloween, so the Bride of Frankenstein was born.
Then lil Pumpkin head too....
These were fun to make , plus I gave them wobbly heads too.
Most folks in the U.K. buy their Halloween décor from the highstreet so I expect these chaps will end up in the U.S.A. a big thankyou to my customers out there, always xxx

Hartley Hare flies again...
Another of my Hartley Hare style puppets flew off to New York earlier this week, I never tire of making them.
They are large with arms and legs, and an awful lot of hand sewing. But I can also stuff them and make them as a collectors toy rather than a puppet, which does make them cheaper.
As a puppet he is fully lined and a lot of work goes into the innards of him, so to speak.
But I really love making him.
If you want one of these making for someone for Christmas then do place your order now as I wont have time to make him otherwise.
Also payment plan is available , just get in touch via my etsy shop.
Happy Puppeteering !

Bronwyn, the tall welshdoll.
Heres Bronwyn, my large/tall welsh doll that Ive just listed on my etsy shop.
Here are a few photos so you can all see how I made her.
Shes a primitive style doll, and shes made with natural fibres.
I pay attention to detail,you can really see that better if you ever meet any of my dolls in person.
In the welsh doll series all the materials come from Wales, most are antique, but we are so lucky to have a fully working old woollen mill nearby, which I support by also buying fabric from them.
I like the fingers on this doll, they may look messy to some, but I wanted them to look old fashioned and primitive, like that, all hand stitched, like early pioneers may of made.
Have a great weekend and Happy Sewing !!
