("birds" = "young women" but then I am an Essex girl!)
All the dolls I make are 'One of a kind' no two will ever be exactly the same, I can make similar to order if needed. Most dolls are approx 18-20 ins, the larger ones are approx 28ins. Please contact me for prices.
The dolls are all cloth bodied, machine stitched for strength and firmly stuffed with synthetic filling. They all have either button and/or ribbon tied joints for movement. The faces are needle sculpted and drawn in water colour pencil. The hair is often dyed fleece, raw silk or mixed yarns. Some of the dolls are dressed in vintage silks and lace, wherever possible I use recycled fabric, trims and beads.
Devon Flower Faeries
These little faeries are of a different construction, approx 22cm, all are made of sari silk, either free trade or recycled. Each doll is hand made and comes with its own certificate and an organza pouch to keep it safe.
