{A Christmas Elf}

Little Miss Elf is a little late in showing up here, but that's my fault.  I was so busy with orders the last two months that I haven't had time to blog, so I'm trying to get caught up.

Melissa wanted her Christmas elf made with the eyes embroidered, no jingle bell on her hat and no buttons on her dress. I wasn't sure if I would like this doll without the safety eyes, but I really like how the eyes turned out.

I have a lot of different styles of dolls in my shop.  I specialize in custom orders because I want you to get a product that you will love and be happy with.  You can order a custom doll over in my Etsy Shop. If you want something different than what you find there please feel free to message me.

{the kindness elf}

Amy, a client of mine, wanted me to make a custom elf for her to use as a "Kindness Elf" in her 1st grade classroom for a Random Acts of Kindness unit. What a great idea!

You can order a custom made elf doll over in my Etsy shop. You can choose the colors/prints/fabrics and I will try to find fabric as close to what you request as possible.  Please note that I cannot guarantee that I can find exactly what you would like, but I will do my best.

{a Christmas panda}

At the beginning of January I had a client that asked me to make a panda exactly like the one in a picture he sent me.  This is what I came up with.

I was curious why he wanted a Christmas panda a few weeks after Christmas, but he never responded when I asked that question, so my curiosity is still peaked.

I made the panda with a pattern from Melly & Me !  I used a pattern from Noialand for the Christmas lights.  The hat was made by enlarging a pattern from Sweet Briar Sisters.

The panda & the santa hat were made with very soft fabrics and the lights were all hand-stitched with felt and embroidery floss.  In all of my stuffed animals that are in a sitting position I add a filling to the bottom to help them sit up on their own.

If you'd like to order a panda head over to my Etsy shop and place a custom request.   

The panda by itself would be $25.   

Add a hat for $8 

Add Christmas lights (or a different accessory) for $10.

{fabric road toy}

My 3rd daughter, Miranda, who is 15, made this fun adjustable road for my boys for Christmas.  The road pieces are movable so they can design their own little road differently every time they play with it. As you can see she also made stores, houses, parking lots, trees, cacti, bushes and ponds.  How cute is this?

{Elliot the Elf}

This cute little guy was a custom order for Julie.

She saw my Evie the Elf doll and wanted a boy version, so I did a little adjusting and made him look more like a boy, although I still think he's so cute that he still looks a little "girly".
