5 out of 5 starsThe stunningly dressed Hattie joined my home today. Hattie is beautiful and I think she knows it. I hope to learn from her quiet self confidence.

5 out of 5 starsOh my goodness, I simply LOVE my little fawn, she is adorable and very cuddly. Her little dress and shoes and bag are sooo sweet. Thank you so very much, she arrived safe and sound. Sorry for late reply. She will sit on my dressing table when I clear a spot, but for now she sits with my rose on the fridge. 💖🧶🌻🦋

5 out of 5 starsOh my this bunny is gorgeous and I am quite the conniseur of Bubbles and Bongo bunnies. No detailing spared for this delightful work of art, complete with embroidery on the dress. I just told my husband that my bunnies are reproducing like rabbits....

5 out of 5 starsWell I was not aware that I needed a mouse to join my bunnies until I saw this one. I wasted no time in buying her, too sad at the thought that someone might snap her up before me. My friend wants to call her Lucy. I think she looks more like a Harriet and so that has stuck. Exquisitely made in beautiful clothes and all ready with her bag to hit the High Street shopping Harriet is quite the sophisticated mouse.

5 out of 5 starsMy grand daughter was soo surprised, when I gave her the parcel from the PO, to open.
Thank you very much for the way you packaged little Apricot up for my grand daughter. She is going to use the box as a bed for her new friend. 💖😊 -

5 out of 5 starsI have loved the hoodies and with my latest bunny I asked for a longer hoodie 'trench coat' in a colour that tones in with the bunny's shoes. No trouble for Bubbles and Bongo and bunny is ready for winter.

5 out of 5 starsThe creativity and quality of the work done by Bubbles and Bongo is superb and my new bunny is no exception. Great striped pink and white t-shirt, blue overalls complete with socks and lace up shoes.

5 out of 5 starsIt is absolutely beautiful. I'm so in love with this little sheep. Would definitely recommend. It's a gift for a very lucky baby boy.
About BubblesAndBongo
The story behind Bubbles and Bongo
Welcome to our shop - Bubbles and Bongo!
Who are we?
We are a mother and daughter team who share a common love for crochet. Before we became official crochet addicts (and we mean addicts) we were certified golf nuts.
Why is it important we tell you this you might ask?…
Well that’s how we discovered the world of crochet amigurumi. One of our playing partners turned up at golf and proudly showed us her crocodile amigurumi headcover. We quickly informed her that it was in fact a giraffe. This point aside, we were inspired to do a quick search on the internet for how the giraffe was created and thanks to the wonders of YouTube and Google we soon learned the intricacies of making stuffed toys with crochet stitches.
How did we embark on setting up our Etsy shop?
We love putting ideas into stitches and with that comes a serious yarn budget(!). To fund our buying habits and also to look for new homes for our creations, we decided to set up our own Etsy shop. In so doing, we hope that you will be interested in adopting our amigurumi toys and love them as we loved making them. We also have patterns of our creations for those who want to have a go at making them yourself and perhaps add your own creative touch.
Why the name?
Mum came up with the idea of Bubbles & Bongo as they were childhood nicknames she gave to my sister and I. Bubbles was a monkey and Bongo a bear she saw when visiting the Taronga Zoo in Sydney, Australia. Apparently, I have a gait similar to Bongo (at least that's what she thinks!!!).
In conclusion…
We take great pride in what we crochet and hopefully you can see that in all our amigurumi toys we make.
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit our page! Do visit our Instagram profiles too! They are @petite_tini and @littleaquagirl! :)
We hope to see you again!

This point aside, we were inspired to do a quick search on the internet for how the giraffe was created and thanks to the wonders of YouTube and Google we soon learned the intricacies of making stuffed toys with basic crochet stitches.

HOW DID WE SET UP OUR ETSY SHOP?
We love putting ideas into stitches and with that comes a serious yarn budget(!). To fund our buying habits and inability to stop shopping for yarn, and also to look for new loving homes for our creations, we decided to set up our own Etsy shop.
In so doing, we hope that you will be interested in adopting our amigurumi toys and love them as much as we loved making them.
For those who are keen crocheters themselves, we also sell original patterns of cute amigurumi creations over at our shop The Little Hook Crochet, so please visit us over there!
