Janet’s hand-crafted Flip Dolls a Must See!

    We have the most beautiful, creative new dolls found no where else in the world.  Janet, my cousin, is creating art work that is a gift for you, a daughter, or a granddaughter.  These unique large dolls are the old-fashioned flip dolls that I remember growing up.  I think another cousin had one (a flip doll) and I would have liked it also but didn't have many dolls.  The one I remember was little Red Riding Hood on one side and the big bad wolf on the other — a great creative storybook doll.  Simply turn the doll upside down and it becomes a different character.

Janet is creating these individualized dolls and has made them available to our Internet customers for an extremely reasonable price of $49 plus shipping and handling. 

The flip side can be anything — for example a Packer girl! 

The hair is yarn — if custom ordered your color choice.  The faces are embroidered (eye color can be customized).   The vests or skirts or dresses and blouses all are of high quality fabric and meticulous construction on huggable stuffed bodies.  These dolls are keepsakes and will be treasured by anyone who gets one.

She can also do custom orders in fabric from a wedding – the bride on one side and the bridesmaid dress on the other.  Just call me (Lena) at 414-745-4362 to order.  Order early for gifts!
