Introducing "Eliani Chickpeas" dolls

I'd like to introduce our newest product additions to our Handmade range - the Eliani Chickpeas dolls.

I am very excited to be making these dolls and being able to offer them for sale (check out our handmade store to view/purchase the dolls). My sister who is a freelance toy designer designed the original pattern for these and it has evolved from there. You can check out more of her toy designs over at her blog here

The Eliani Chickpeas are made using Waldorf toy making principles, with a bit of a twist.  They are  handmade made from socks (new ones of course, that have been pre washed to make them nice and clean) and have long dangly arms and legs (which young kids love to chew!) and hand embroidered details..

Their smiling faces and big eyes are sure to delight kids of all ages. They are original and each one is 'one of a kind'!
