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.

Daenerys, Mother of Dragons from Game of Thrones

 Meet Daenerys, Mother of Dragons, as a Waldorf-esque doll!
A very special custom doll based on the character Daenerys, Mother of Dragons, from season three of The Game of Thrones.
 Daenerys wears the same cape, dress, and leggings she wears in season three, 
handmade especially for her by Molly's Playground.
 Her hair is a stunning combination of two hand spun merino art yarns with lots of sparkle and orlando boucle yarn, braided into a crown befitting the Mother of Dragons.
 She has three needle-felted dragon companions who adore her--
Drogon, Viserion, and Rhaegal.
 Her eyes are violet blue, and her boots are 100% wool felt with contrast stitching...she also sits or stands easily.
Daenerys and her dragons cannot WAIT to travel to their new home!

Watch for an additional custom doll coming SOON---Beatrice (Tris) from the DIVERGENT novels by  Veronica Roth...
Blessings,
Amy
