Crazy about Cuckoo for Coco

5 minutes with/ Handmade business/ Meet The Maker

Being a busy mum to two busy little munchkins, my life, like that of most mums is often filled with chaos and mayhem.  I spend a lot of my ˜down time searching high and low for new, and different goodies that will allow their imaginations to run wild.

A little while ago, I came across the most exquisite dollies from Cuckoo For Coco.  I could just see the excitement in the eyes of my children.   These delightful dollies are creatively called ˜Coco, ˜Willow, and ˜Poppy Doll.

As Shannon, designer and owner of Cuckoo For Coco, told me œmaking the dolls was a complete experiment as I had no pattern making experience at that stage.¦.I just decided to give it a go.  I’m sure many are so glad she did as her gorgeous creations have turned out to be very popular little ladies.

Each Cuckoo for Coco doll is made from 100% original and hand drawn patterns. Their face details are also hand stitched with love.  Shannon uses mostly designer and vintage fabrics to bring these whimsical dolls to life.  Each divine little doll has its own little personality, which I’m sure will bring hours of fun and imaginative play to many homes.

My personal favourite is Willow.  A sense of shyness and intrigue surrounds her, yet her nature is both calm and soothing.

All dollies are hand made in Australia, which makes these treasures even more special.

We wait in anticipation as Shannon is also planning an addition to the family, with her next creation to be released within the next month or two.

They would make a beautiful addition to any childs play time or a treasured gift for someone special.

Take a look at the hip little webstore or visit Shannon on Facebook to order one of these unique dollies.
