adorable colorful crazy quilt dolls

If you're looking for dolls your kids can relate to, ones that look like they do, then (I hope) this is not your shop.  But, if you want some really fun one-of-kind play (or display) dolls for your kid, your friend or yourself, then hop on over and check out the gnomes at The Giggly Baby.  These creations are colorful, whimsical, artistically engaging crazy quilt updates on Raggedy Ann and Andy.  They're sweet, weird, sometimes scary, and just plain adorable.  This flower-eyed cutie is Grome Folk Creature.  She's $75.00.

a comfy portable chair for dad

This is a really nice compact portable chair.  It folds flat and is also very pleasing to the eye.  I like the stretched canvas backrest.  Not only does it add to the visual appeal, it's also a comfort feature.  And, at $65.00, the price is reasonable for a high-quality handmade chair that will last a lifetime.  It's at WillardWoodwrights, along with a nice collection of other wooden furnishings and toys.

I think this chair is a nice pick for Father's Day.
