Meet Jack...a little boy who loves Nightmare Before Christmas

Meet Jack. 

He’s a happy little boy with a sparkling personality who loves Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas and his little hand painted wooden Skellington friend most of all.  

 He is a handmade doll, crafted lovingly in the Waldorf-esque tradition. 13 inches from the top of his head to the bottom of his shoes, he wears QUITE the debonair ensemble: a colorful upcycled Jack Skellington themed t-shirt and embroidered jeans (by Nanerjoy), and a dapper black and white striped jacket with matching black bowtie(by Mollys Playground). 

His lush iridescent hair is hand spun black merino wool with curly glistening rainbow yarn highlights! He is stuffed with clean carded local wool and his “skin” fabric is cotton interlock imported from Europe. His eyes and mouth are hand embroidered—notice that mischievous twinkle—and his black and white sneakers have Jack Skellington beads on them. 

Jack is intended for adult collectors or children ages five and up, who do not put things in their mouths. His hair, shoes, and Skellington beads pose choking hazards.

I am busily making one more little boy for my upload in my Etsy shop this upcoming weekend…Jack’s friend who will join him in the upload is a boy doll named Charlie, and he LOVES to fish.

More to come soon,

Time for a Giveaway!

GRAND PRIZE: 

Meet Lux, a 13 inch Waldorf-esque doll who loves the spa, handmade especially for this contest by Once Upon A Doll. Winner only pays $1.00 (per Facebook rules) plus shipping: $15.00 in the US; $22.00 to Canada; $35.00 elsewhere. (Retail price for this prize is $175.00 plus shipping.)

Lux comes with a fabric bathtub, ducky, baby shampoo bottle, and candle. (Please note that Lux and her little candle friend are handmade, but I purchased the bathtub, duck and baby shampoo set from the Baby Stella line...one of the things I wouldn't do for a doll I made to sell, but am happy to include as a fun extra in a GIVEAWAY!)

 

Lux's hair is entirely made of LUXURIOUS hand spun art yarn by Yarn Rescue.

 Lux both sits and stands, and she comes with a pair of white bloomers as well as a gorgeous candle and spa themed upcycled outfit, handmade by Nanerjoy just for her!
