A quick start to this Monday morning, I wanted to share these handmade dolls. How adorable are they? All these dolls are made by hand by Sophia Smeekens who has been making dolls ever since she was a kid. I love the quirky faces and the pointy heads on those stripey dolls which are my favourite. And the sleepy eyes? Too sweet! Handmade dolls always get my vote and these ones are so different than any I’ve seen before. You can find a selection at the lovely Pearls and Swines boutique.
You may have seen Lucky Boy Sunday featured here in the past and today I couldn’t resist sharing their latest campaign. It’s hard to put the charm of Lucky Boy Sunday in to words so I guess I could say that there’s a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’ about their creations. The goodies are wonderful but so is the way they put together each campaign with an almost magical and poetic quality to it. The creators say they ‘adore the unsaid’, leaving it up to you dream and imagine what you will…
I was browsing etsy as I often do when a thumbnail of one of these dolls caught my eye. I clicked to have a better look and I was confronted by these whimsical hand made dolls. I love that they’re so quirky and unusual, I love their long dangly legs and I’m also feeling the love for their ‘stand out from the crowd’ outfits. These contemporary dolls are hand made here in the UK by a lady called Kiran Patel who says ‘their clothing style is borrowed from modern trends… and translated with intricate style detailing making each piece interesting and original in their own way.’ These dolls are large, measuring around 40cm’s and would make funky soft toys or would look cool as decorative dolls too. To find out more, head to Kooky Handmade on etsy.
