Big Ears

This is a handmade textile artwork inspired by folk art.

It is also inspired by some cute children I see sometimes during the school run. In winter some of them are wearing big hats, in every colour and animal shape you can imagine, they are all so joyful. Some of them wear double pompom hats and I guess, they really did inspire this character.

The doll is made from a mix of new and upcycled textiles. She has orange hair and wears a pretty floral dress in blue tones.
On her head, she wears some kind of a headband with two big mouse like ears.
The headband is made from papier-mâché covered with different fabrics. The ears part are pink with a blue heart sewn on each one.
The headband is removable, just put it back as gently as possible (it can be a bit fiddly).

Measurements
This artwork measures approximately 20.5cm.
She is signed and is ready to be displayed on your walls thanks to a loop sewn at the back of her head.
She cannot stand nor sit on her own.
Please display away from direct sunlight and any source of water.

This is not a toy.

As a doll maker inspired by folk art dolls, I want to say that the fabric fraying, the threads still showing or the way things are attached to each other are all voluntary processes. This is the way I find that my creations are beautiful. This is how I feel they are unique and original. It shows their frailties, flaws and their strength altogether.
I am working with upcycled materials mostly.
