Welcome
Welcome! Sit down, peruse these pages, and indulge in the stories my dolls arouse within your imagination...
Once Upon A Doll began with my own love of dolls, especially hand made. My kids and I collect, play with, and love our dolls, and eventually I began to make dolls of my own. Although my dolls are based upon the principles of Waldorf doll making--natural and sustainably harvested materials (like wool stuffing and cotton interlock), hand spun and dyed wool yarns for hair, hand made doll clothes, 100% wool felt for shoes--my dolls cannot be called strictly Waldorf (more Waldorf-esque), as they have definite personalities, larger & more expressive eyes, and playful mouths. Once Upon A Doll features enchanted dolls made in the Waldorf tradition with a storybook theme for that special child in your life or the discriminating collector of handmade dolls.

This is my first post in preparation for the upcoming Grand Re-Opening of my Etsy shop. Formerly known as "wreathsndolls", but now named "Once Upon A Doll", I am refocusing my wares from enchanted wreaths to storybook handmade dolls in the Waldorf tradition.
To see my previous wreath creations, please check out my other blog at:
