waldorf style doll customer testimonials

I wanted to send you a note to say a gigantic thank you for Maisy. She is gorgeous and everything we wanted and more. I was on the edge of my seat waiting for her to arrive, and wondering and wondering what she would look like. My husband, Mike, had her delivered to his work, and came home on his lunch break on Monday to open the package with me. Wren was asleep and we both sat in the kitchen in awe of the careful packaging, the beautiful clothes, the handwritten note and Maisy herself. It is amazing to have stalked your website and Facebook, and read all the reviews and comments, and looked at the photos of dolls over and over, and spent a good amount of money on what we knew would be worth it for a handcrafted Waldorf doll.....yet even after all this, our expectations were exceeded by far. Maisy was above and beyond what we could have hoped for. She is so sturdy and cute and funky and classic all at the same time. Mike said, "you know what? This is the doll I would have picked if i saw her on the website!" So true. We LOVE LOVE LOVE her. Thank you so very much for doing what you do. And to all the other mamas at Bamboletta, too and to your husband, the doll head stuffer extraordinaire. THANK YOU. The dolls you are making are absolutely perfect. I can't say it enough. It is amazing you can charge such a low amount for them considering the work and time and love that must go into them.

Also, I brought her to my work meeting last night. I work at a toy store that is "Waldorf inspired" and sells natural toys and lots of dolls. So, the women i work with are all about dolls, and everyone was blown away by Maisy. Seriously. She stole the show. We carry (I've edited this part!), and Bamboletta is waaaaaaaaaay better than all of them. way. better.

Christina, thank you so so much for the work you put into each doll. She is so special to us, and I am sure she will be important to us throughout her life.

Thanks and love

Calliope arrived this afternoon! She is so beautiful, I'm sure my daughter will think the world of her! I can't wait to order one for my second daughter when she is old enough and I look forward to making clothes for this divine little doll! I will send photos once C and Calliope have become acquainted in a few weeks!

I just wanted to let you know I received Autumn in the mail yesterday and words cannot begin to describe how in love I am. Even my husband was amazed bye how lovingly packaged she was. This doll is priceless.... I can't imagine how hard it was to actually put a price tag on her because the work put into her is Just pure talent and LOVE. I know it may seem a little strange, but I got teary eyed at first glance! My husband thought I was a nut job spending this much money on a doll..but when he saw her he took back what he said because he saw the wonderful craftsmanship and DETAIL. I just want to thank you so much for parting with this doll and allowing us to buy her from you. She's come to a good family and will be loved for years and years to come. Have a wonderful Holiday!

You are an incredible team of people who have produced the most beautiful doll I have ever seen. I cried when I opened it. I am saving it for my daughter's birthday (March) but I am seriously wishing I was little again, so I could justify keeping it for myself. Thank you so much.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this gorgeous little doll. From the moment we opened the box, we were in awe of your obvious care and attention to detail with extras like the wrapping. Not to mention the addition of the beautiful sweater and shoes -- so kind of you! The quality and beauty of your craftswomanship are just remarkable. She is absolutely the best doll I have ever seen and I'm so glad to be able to help give her as a gift to my friend's daughter. (And a wee bit jealous, as part of me wants to keep her all for myself!) Pictures don't do your work justice. Definitely worth every penny! Thanks so, so much!

My boys LOVED it so much!!! At first, I saw a friend's doll and decided to have it done more for me (we all have a child within....) than for my boys. What a surprise - boys do love dolls too!!!!! It brought tears to my eyes when they opened the box and immediately started to care and parenting the little dolls. It's nice to see them interacting with the dolls because we realize what they appreciate in our parenting...my older one says to the doll: "Thanks for being who you are", exactly like we say to him....and it makes me happy to see that he passes it on to his "child". Thank you so much, Christina!!!! Your work is truly amazing....it seems that the dolls come with some pixie dust that make us all fall in love with them.

I think they are so healing (the dolls), there is some piece of childhood they are holding onto and at the same time empowering to the owner. I think they are beautiful.

Laurie, Vancouver

She took to her new doll like her mama at a ‘Matt and Nat’ warehouse sale ! Best purchase I made for her...ever!!

Anne, Vancouver

I just wanted to let you know that Celeste arrived safely into our home (ordered through Natural Pod) and she is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I ordered her for Christmas for my daughter and I had trouble putting her back in the box to wait until then! She is so obviously made with loving hands. Thanks for creating her.

Krista

Thank you so much for the beautiful dolls, my girls love them and have now fallen asleep holding the beauties. They are a work of art and one can tell that they are created and filled with love. They truly are treasures that will be cared for, for eternity.

My daughter received a Bamboletta toddler doll last Christmas and it soon became her 'lovie", chewed on, slept with, carried around, and now walked in a stroller. it both calms and delights her. and the true reason i chose it -to please my aesthetic standards and speak to my soul, seems irrelevant at this point. these dolls simply do what they are suppose to - provide comfort, companionship and bring a little joy into people's lives.
