Bamboletta Dolls






What happened to simple dolls that let children be children? Not dolls that come in bikini and high heels with enough make up to make them look like ladies of the night.

That's why its so refreshing to come across Bamboletta dolls. These are the most beautiful dolls I have seen, and the minute I saw these Steiner inspired dolls I knew I had to order one for my daughter.

They are just so beautiful from the way they look, to the incredible love and care and attention to detail given to each doll. Christina is the amazing lady that makes these dolls, she is a stay at home mum who lives in the woods on the west coast of Canada, her hubby is master head maker and fabric cutter and her Granny does the knitting for the dolls clothes.

You can buy dolls from their
etsy web site (more dolls will be available from September) or order a custom made doll through the Bamboletta web site (maybe made to look like the child you are giving it to).

The dolls faces are embroidered with a sweet, simple expression inspired by Waldorf philosophy . They encourage children to engage in open play, reflecting back to the child whatever emotion is timely and appropriate, whether happy, sad, or somewhere between.
