Customizing your Phoebe Doll Order

October 12, 2014 Lisa Press
Think about customizing a doll for a gift

Think about customizing a doll for a gift

At least half of my orders have been for custom dolls. I do not charge more for custom dolls, but do require payment before I begin. 

There are many ways to customize a doll. I have creative customers, who have thought of ideas that I would not have imagined. These ideas became amazing dolls.

There are many styles of Phoebe dolls. In addition, Phoebe can be a character in a book or a movie. I have made many Fancy Nancys and am in the process of making an Elsa from Frozen doll.  A doll can resemble your child, be a boy, a girl, a toddler or a baby. Jointed and posable or floppy. 

One of the beautiful things about a handmade doll is that you can design it to make it your own, or your daughter's or granddaughter's unique doll.

Below are a few of the possibilities. Think ahead for holiday orders, so I have time to make the perfect doll.

Here are a few comments on the customization process.

Phoebe's body can be customized. Or you can design a boy doll.

Phoebe dolls come in three sizes, young girl, toddler and baby sized (Egg). In addition, Phoebe has a brother, Ging. He can have straight or curly hair and very cute boy clothing, preppy or skateboard style. 

Below are a few of the possibilities for hair. The yarn texture and color are both possibilities for customization. In addition, Phoebe can have a bob, or long hair or braids or a messy ballerina bun.

Phoebe can be any ethnicity. The dolls are made from 100% wool felt and I have five colors, peach, two shades of olive/tan complexion, and two shades of dark skin.
