Meet Our Heirloom Dolls
Piccolina
This is our Piccolina Doll. These dolls are only available bi annually during our 'Piccopalooza!' sale. (Subscribe to our newsletter to stay up to date on the release dates.) The Piccolina is our smallest doll, measuring 9" tall and she has limbs that bend. This is a doll that's perfect for a smaller child or just anyone who loves wee things. When I was a kid I loved small things and I created this doll from that memory. Her skin is made with cotton and she is stuffed with western Canadian wool. Her hair, like the rest of our dolls, is made using natural yarns that are hand dyed here by us!
Little Buddy
This is the Little Buddy Doll. She measures in at 10" tall and is made with cotton and wool. Her hair is made with all natural fibers, hand dyed by us. The Little Buddy's body style is based on the traditional Waldorf doll pattern - I love the simplicity and heritage of that design. Her limbs do not bend (or at least not straight away - after time and play they will bend!) and they are always ready for a hug. This is a sweet doll for little ones as a first doll or for children that prefer little things.
Cuddle Doll
Our Cuddle Doll is one of our most popular dolls. She measures 13" tall and is made with cotton and stuffed with wool. Her hair is made with all natural fibers hand dyed by us. The Cuddle doll is just that - cuddly. Her limbs move which allow her to sit and snuggle. She has a rounded body and sweet little feet.
Sitting Friend
This is our Sitting Friend and our most popular doll. I love this style of doll! She measures about 16" tall and is made with cotton and stuffed with wool. There is real 'heft' to this doll, which can act as a comfort to children. Her wool stuffing is great for children - wool is naturally antibacterial and absorbs smells so the doll will soon smell of home, something which can be of great comfort to children. She has moving limbs making this doll perfect for tea parties and snuggles! I really love everything about this doll - I think the size is so nice for the over 5 set and really feels like a companion type of doll. I think I feel this way because this doll is closest in size to my Cabbage Patch kid when I was growing up and I have such fond memories of Elisa Eliza. She really was my best friend. The memory of this is why I feel such a deep honor in creating your child's doll.

Classic Doll
This is our Classic Doll. The original Bamboletta doll, our Classic doll is the very first style of doll we made over ten years ago. Based on traditional German doll-making patterns similar to the Waldorf Doll style, they’re a bit larger than most of our dolls and come with more detailed clothing and underpants. Their thick hair is perfect for combing and styling to unleash a child’s creativity. Always hug-ready, our sweet Classic Dolls are also a little heftier than most, which gives them a more realistic feel that can be very comforting to children. Recommended for ages three and up, though they’re a great companion for all ages. She measures 15" tall. The Sitting Friend and Classic Doll can wear the same clothes.
Baby Doll
Like all babies, our Baby Dolls are adorable bundles of sweetness. From the curve of their little backside to the sweet little cap of hair – they’re made with love through and through. Smooth stones give them a lovely weighted feel in the bum. Every Baby Doll is unique; some have opened eyes and others are quietly sleeping. They each have a diaper and and a cute swaddling blanket to cuddle with. Wonderful for ages 1.5 and up. These dolls are about 13" tall. They can also wear the cuddle tops.
Forever Friend
These are our Forever Friend dolls. They are tall gals, measuring about 22" long. They are made with wool and cotton and natural, hand dyed hair. Their limbs are long and lanky - ready for a snuggle. These are the only dolls that I sew little eyelashes on, I wanted an 'older looking' doll and I like this effect on her. When creating this doll, I had the older child at heart. My eldest had just turned 11 and I felt the push pull between childhood and teen years - I wanted to create something that would fit that age group and maybe act as a momento of that time. Melissa creates one of a kind clothing using vintage fabrics, lace and all sorts of goodies - this makes the dolls even more special. Now, my favorite bit on this doll is a pocket sewn into the doll in which I place a crystal and little love note. I'd like to think you could also add in a note to your child, or to yourself.
