The perfect guest to any child's tea party, these charming 'poupéées' are the creations of Péénéélope Naulleau. Their story began in a house filled with children and toys, where in her small workshop, Péénéélope was inspired to make these dolls, using lambswool stuffing, cotton jersey for skin and mohair yarns for hair. Like true Waldolf dolls they are intentionally simple to foster children’s imagi nation and creativity. Each doll is different but they are all ready to be loved. Penelope Naulleau large doll 42cm tall £95, small doll 32cm tall £75 A beautiful doll must have an equally beautiful wardrobe. Astrid Le Provost’s dolls outfits are irresistible and a perfect fit for Péénéélope Naulleau’s dolls. Produced as patterns or ready to wear gar ments Astrid’s collection is fashioned in cotton, linen and wool. Her outfits use muted shades and restrained prints but seamstresses can make their own choices. If sewing isn’t for you, her collection is also available as ready to wear garments for both dolls and children. Citronille patterns for doll’s outfits from £3.50; children’s outfits from £7.50; knitted accessories from £3.50; tunics for dolls from £14; tunics for children from £36 Tamar Mogendorff – her name is as distinctive as her creations and neither is likely to be forgotten. The beauty of Tamar’s creations does not lie in their perfection. Her use of old linen, antique embroidery, tweed and even newspaper coupled with rough stitching and raw edges give them a texture and personality that requires a certain knowledge to appreciate. What could seem like flaws to the untrained eye are the essence of the appeal of these patchwork treasures. Tamar Mogendorff’s creatures, from £75-£180 choose from a hen with 2 eggs, geese, a penguin family, small, medium and large birdhouses, a polar bear family, an owl couple, a dachshund or a greyhound..
