Guess how proud I am of my almost 16 year old son, who is designing my website at the moment and did this cute logo for his Mamma bear 🥰😍♥️

I took great joy in learning how to sew Analeisha’s dress and trousers.
Albert, the horse, was more complicated to crochet and I was so relieved once I’d finished him .😮‍💨 But he does look so adorable next to her. He’s stuffed with real wool too.

Meet little Analeisha and Albert ♥️ And HERE SHE IS!!!

~Little Analeisha with her noble steed, Albert~

She will fit clothes for a 14” sized doll, but she’s a cute shortie.

So much love went into crocheting her outfit with matching shoes ♥️

The horsey is also stuffed with wool and crocheted with 100 %cotton 😍

~Moment of valuable truth~

This is the small doll I tried to make WITHOUT the tutorial from Waldorf doll shop.

I simply tried to test myself and see how much I’d retained and remembered from the course I attended with Ildila 😁

🤣 As you can see, the dolly has some special needs:

• the face is too flat (I couldn’t remember the process of layering of materials as you felt some wool for better features)

• the eyes are too high up (this could be a matter of prefference, but I personally think it does help to make the eyes by the line above the cheeks)

• the arms are too long (this can easily be corrected now; this was not a pattern from my teacher, but rather my own idea of trying to figure out a small doll)

• there are two right legs (I didn’t pay attention to how you’re meant to sew the second sole to the foot) 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hope my journey helps you onto yours. Please follow me for more tips and ideas onto my page at createve.co.uk 🤗

The amount of time and love that goes into making a natural doll or handmade toys is just immense ✨♥️ I am in awe of my teacher, Ildiko Waldorf doll shop 😍

I just want to say that I REALLY appreciate people who make toys by hand and pass on this lovely skill 😍♥️♥️♥️

My little blue eyed doll is almost ready, and I’m already dreaming pretty outfits I can sew and crochet for her 🥰😁🪡🧶👗👚🧵

I have finally managed to get everything I needed, in order to start making natural dolls ☺️ ♥️ 🥰

Today I‘ve started a medium size doll and a small one; I am curious to see how long it will take me to finish them, with all the interruptions I have as a busy mum of 4, also in the process of opening a Bakery & Shop!

So much love and attention to detail goes into making beautiful and lasting gifts✨

Here’s a sneak peek at what I’m working on to go with my next Natural Doll once I’m all setup and ready with my website 🥰

So honoured to have found another beautiful teacher like Helen from All Sewn Up Wales, who was able to get me started with using a sewing machine 🥰

There is nothing like starting to sew the right way! I know that will save me a lot of time and hassle 😁

I’ve already been able to sew my first petticoat (underskirt) for my natural dolls, using my heirloom 1906 Singer machine. ♥️♥️♥️

And, after a very intense course at Waldorf doll shop, I am proud to present to you, my very first natural, and handmade doll, which I’ll keep for my girlie ☺️

Meet my sweet, chocolate hair and brown eyed Carina-Lisa ♥️

She’s already made a new penfriend from England 😁

My next dolly will be a blond one, and hopefully I’ll be up and running in order to start selling by then. 🙏

This beautiful dream of making natural dolls started to become reality with the guiding and talented hand of this lovely hungarian lady (Ildiko from Waldorf doll shop)♥️

This beginning of September I am so grateful for this opportunity from Daddy God, to be able to learn such a rare and amazing skill 🥰

Everything used and the amount of time and effort which goes into making one of these stunning dolls, is nothing short of an art of sacrificial love - in hopes that someone, somewhere might enjoy using their creativity in playing with one of these lovely and unique dolls ♥️

Welcome to my CreatEve page! Hope you’ll enjoy my creative journey and be inspired to invest into such lovely handmade toys and perfectly adored gifts for those you love ♥️♥️♥️
