Sophie is hungry for knowledge

Sophie is not an average girl. She is interested in much more than just fashion, movies and boys. She is stubborn and headstrong and likes to think for herself. She is interested in philosophy, so she often spends long nights thinking about the world and the meaning of life, but you shouldn’t be surprised if you ever catch her studying astrophysics. She is hungry for knowledge! But you could simply explain all that with her name – it comes from the Greek word for wisdom.


You can adopt her here.



Sofija ni povprečno dekle, saj jo poleg mode, filmov in fantov zanima še marsikaj drugega. Je trmasta in svojeglava. Zanima jo filozofija, zato dolge večere razmišlja o svetu in smislu življenja. Ne bodite pa presenečeni, če jo kdaj zalotite pri astrofiziki - Sofija je lačna znanja. Sicer pa vse pove že njeno ime, ki izhaja iz grške besede za modrost.

Did someone say steampunk?

Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction, which involves an era or world where steam power is still widely used — usually the 19th century and often Victorian era Britain. Works of steampunk often feature anachronistic technology or futuristic innovations as Victorians may have envisioned them; in other words, based on a Victorian perspective on fashion, culture, architectural style, art, etc.

This is why steampunk dolls are usually made off metals like copper, brass, steel and iron, rivets, gears and cogs, wood, leather and glass. But have you ever seen a steampunk art doll 100% made of yarn? Here it is!

Victoria loves reading books and is passionate about all kinds of machines. She's dreaming of becoming an inventor just like her big idol Leonardo da Vinci. She is approximately 14'' (35 cm) tall and it took me 17 hours to finish it.



You can adopt her here.



Steampunk ali parni punk, kot bi mu lahko rekli po slovensko, je žanr znanstvene fantastike. Dogaja se v svetu in času, v katerem se še vedno redno uporablja parni pogon (ponavadi gre za viktorijansko Britanijo iz 19. stoletja), vključuje pa futuristične inovacije in razno tehnologijo. Prav zaradi tega so punčke, narejene v stilu steampunka, najpogosteje sestavljene iz raznih kovin, kot so baker, medenina in železo, zakovic, kolesja, zobnikov, lesa, usnja in stekla. Ste kdaj že videli tako punčko, narejeno iz preje? Tukaj je!

Victoria rada bere knjige, strasno pa se navdušuje tudi nad vsemi vrstami naprav. Sanja o tem, da bi postala inovatorka, prav tako kot njen idol Leonardo da Vinci. Visoka je 35 cm, za njo sem pa porabila kar 17 ur.

Gaia, goddess art doll

Gaia (or Gaea or Gea) is the primal Greek goddess personifying the Earth, the Greek version of Mother Nature or the Earth Mother. I made her as a symbol of symbiosis of man and the nature and the way of environmentaly responsible way of life in which we should all live.

I dressed this handmade doll in beautiful crocheted dress in blue which represents the sky and in brown which represents the earth.

You can arrange her visit here


Gaja grška boginja, ki pooseblja samo Zemljo, je mati narava. Predstavlja simbiozo človeka in narave ter način okolju prijaznega življenja, ki bi ga morali živeti prav vsi. Oblekla sem jo v modro barvo, ki simbolizira nebo, in rjavo, ki odraža zemljo.

Ondina, water nymph

Ondina (from Latin: unda — a wave) is a water nymph, the elemental of water. The forest waters reflect in her hair and dress, so it is almost impossible to see her. She loves forest pools and waterfalls, which makes these perfect spots for nymph watching. But if you still can't se her, be still and listen. She has beautiful voice, which is sometimes heard over the sound of water.

And since she is a modern nymph she likes to write her own fairytales :)

You can adopt her here


Ondina (iz latinščine: unda — val) je vodna nimfa. Gozdne vode se odsevajo v njenih laseh in obleki, zaradi česar jo je skoraj nemogoče videti. Nora je na gozdne tolmunčke in slapove, zato so to najboljša mesta za opazovanje nimf. Če pa je še vedno ne morete videti, vam predlagam, da utihnete in prisluhnete. Pravijo, da ima prelep glas, ki ga rado ponese z zvokom vode.

Sicer pa je Ondina moderna nimfa, ki svoje pravljice piše sama :)

Meet the bride!

You really shouldn't say "I love you" unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget. ~ Author unknown, attributed to an 8-year-old named Jessica

You can adopt the bride (I know, it sounds funny :) ) here



Ne recite "Ljubim te", če tega ne mislite resno. Če pa ste v to prepričani, povejte pogosto. Ljudje pozabljajo. ~ Neznan avtor, pripisano 8-letni Jessici

Ice cream Lucy

Low temperatures are starting to show also on my dolls. This is why I dressed Lucy in colours which remind me of winter or maybe cold but tasty ice cream. But we can't get enough of latter, can we? :)

Nizke temperature so se začele kazati tudi v mojem delu, saj sem Lucy oblekla v prave zimske barve. No, vsaj mene spominjajo na njo ali morda kar na hladen, a slasten sladoled. Tega ni nikoli dovolj, kajne? :)

Sunshine and rain

Last weekend brought my country heavy rain and floods, so I stayed between 4 walls for the most of the time. I was dreaming about sunshine and this is how Zoe was created...

Sea & Vivi

I have always loved the sea. I've enjoyed waves, diving and fish spotting. Even the little crabs could not escape from me. I rarely see the sea nowadays because of the lack of time, which is why I put a bit of it (at least in the form of inspiration) into the hair of my latest crocheted girl, named Vivi.

Vedno sem imela rada morje. Uživala sem v valovih, potapljanju in gledanju ribic. Tudi rakci niso bili varni pred mano. Danes pa zaradi pomanjkanja časa le redko zaidem na morje, se pa zato morje (vsaj v obliki inspiracije) skriva v laseh moje najnovejše punčke Vivi.

New girl in the house!

She is finally here! Because I always do at least three projects at the same time, it took a bit longer for me to finish my gothic girl. This was also the first time that I have used safety eyes (yes, there were some problems :). And now I am wondering how to name her. Any ideas?

Končno je tu! Ker se vedno lotim preveč projektov hkrati, je trajalo kar nekaj časa, da sem punčko dokončala. Tokrat sem prvič uporabila varnostne oči (brez težav pri nameščanju seveda ni šlo), zdaj pa mi manjka le še ime za njo. Kaka ideja?
