Just 2 weeks turn-around for custom dolls and thirteen years of 5 star reviews!
I LOVE making dolls just for your special doll-lover in your life to fit your exact specifications. Skin color, hair color, clothing, even special-needs modifications are never too much trouble for me to make the perfect doll for you! Everyone deserves a doll that looks like them! #RepresentationMatters
My dolls are made with the expertise of over ten years of doll making experience. Each face is lovingly hand painted with a color-fast, non-toxic, artist-quality fabric paint, creating a surface that is soft, supple, and flexible, never scratchy. I paint each face free handed, without marking the fabric first. I am an artist at heart (check out my watercolor art shop at henandchickart.etsy.com), and so each doll is truly one of a kind!
I often utilize recycled/upcycled vintage fabrics in my creations, as well as using hypo-allergenic polyfil that is made from recycled materials, making your purchase sustainable and earth friendly! The quality of my work is backed by over ten years of experience in doll making (check out my glowing reviews), and I use the highest quality materials available, which means that your purchase will be loved for a lifetime and beyond! These dolls are truly heirlooms.

5 out of 5 starsRachel was so patient and attentive to what we had imagined, and our daughter is thrilled to have a doll that looks like her and has a dress for which she was able to pick out fabric she loves. She has been clutching her doll all day, talking to her, and calling her her little sister -- I know this is going to be a present she will treasure.

5 out of 5 starsThis doll truly exceeded my expectations! So much attention to detail, so skillfully crafted. The hand painted face is beautiful. I gifted it to my daughter yesterday for her birthday and I can't tell you what it means to hear her say over and over again "Mom, I really love my Mary doll!" Extremely happy with my purchase and will shop here again in the future!

5 out of 5 starsShe has done it again, far exceeding my expectations ✨❤️ I couldn’t be happier with the results!! 💕 Always a pleasure to come back to, where there’s perfect & consistent communication, & a joy at the end in receiving... Christmas morning last year was a hit again!! The gorgeous doll was the FIRST thing she saw peeking & waiting for her with open arms under the tree... 😍 I teared up watching her running to it, squeezing it tightly with awe, “It’s MEEE!!!!” Thank you kindly for the many joys you’ve helped me make for my little ones!! 💫❤️❤️ Never disappointed, ~ A Repeated Customer X

Handmade Cloth Dolls
I have always loved creating beautiful things. As a child I hand sewed barbie clothes and drew horses. From playing flute as a Music Education major, to sewing my bridesmaids’ dresses for my wedding, I realized early on in my adult life (as in my childhood) that life feels richer in the midst of making something beautiful.

Every time I make a doll, I feel a character emerge as I put the shiny sparkle in the eyes, & rosy up the cheeks. 'Oh, there you are!' It's like that eerie feeling you’d get as a kid of your toys being alive when you aren't looking.

The following items can't be returned or exchanged
- Custom or personalized orders
- Perishable products (like food or flowers)

Returns and exchange details
Returns on custom made items will be considered on a case by case basis. Please understand that often when I have custom made an item just for you, that item will be too personalized to allow me to resell it, and in that case I will not issue a refund or accept a return.
Returns will only be accepted in original condition.
After the returned item is received by me you'll be refunded with the same method with which you paid (minus shipping).
Payment
In rare cases, I will accept money orders. This must be discussed via convo before the transaction, and I will wait until I receive the money order, deposit it, and receive notifications that it has cleared, all before I will ship your purchase. Thank you for your understanding!
Shipping
Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility to calculate and pay upon arrival. It is illegal for me to mark a customs form as a "gift", and could result in legal action against both myself AND the buyer.
Please let me know before payment if you would like to add insurance, tracking, or expedited shipping and I'll update your listing.
