Welcome to Karen's Kids! My name is Karen Challender and I've been making handmade cloth doll's for over 25 years...
My doll's are made from soft craft velour or deer suede, stuffed with premium polyester fiberfill, have hand embroidered faces, soft sculpted fingers, toes, knees , belly buttons and are just cute as can be!
No two are exactly the same (unless I make twins that is!). They come in two sizes. The original Karens Kids are 21 inches tall, about the size of a newborn baby.. They can wear preemie or newborn sized clothing or doll clothes for 21 inch doll's.. I also offer sweet little outfits to be purchased seprately .
My newest addition are smaller 16" doll's, perfect for smaller doll lovers... They wear clothes intended for 15 or 16 inch doll's (like Bitty Baby) and come in a variety of ready made choices...
I also have a movie star among the group! Lil Thelma was cast in a soon to be released movie "Gone Baby Gone", produced by Ben Affleck. Read more about Lil Thelma HERE. Or click here to see pictures of our little "star"..
I offer doll's of every race in all the beautiful skin color's of the world... I have many ready made doll's available for instant purchase or you can even custom order a doll!
These doll's are cute, cuddly and made to last a very long time! I put tender loving care in each and every doll and dress each one to match they're own unique little personality..
Karen's Kids come with a Creation Certificate with their name, meaning of their name and creation date.
Just added: Sweet Pea Girls and Sweet Pea Doll Clothes.
Coming Soon: Sweet Pea Nursery Reborns.
Sweet Pea Girls are 18" fashion doll's like American Girl with all the quality, but not the pricetag!
Sweet Pea Nursery Reborns are sweet baby and toddler doll's reborn from Berenguer doll's. Reborn doll's come complete with a nursery bracelet with their name and creation date. I'm also an authorized Berenguer Retailer and will be adding Berenguer doll's for reborning during the Fall 2007 months.
Sweet Pea Doll Clothes fit Karens Kids (21" and 16" cloth body dolls), Bitty Baby and American Girl , Sweet Pea Girls and most 18" vinyl dolls.. A shipping discount is given on any outfit purchased with a doll!
Your sure to find a special doll perfect for you, your children or a special doll lover in your life.... These doll's are perfect for all ages.. The hair has knotted roots which prevent little one's from pulling out the hair and there are no moving parts a child can break off to swallow.. A few of the doll outfits have buttons,etc., that may not be safe for baby's or very young children.... I'll be more than happy to make your doll "baby friendly".....When purchasing, mention you'd like your doll to be baby friendly and I'll leave off anything a child might possibly remove and swallow :o)
Ready made doll's can be purchased instantly using the provided paypal buttons... I also accept payments through Google Checkout, so if you'd rather pay through Google, just let me know and I'll be glad to send you an invoice for your purchase through them.
If your a doll lover like me, I hope you'll stop by to visit with Karens Kids to see all the cutie's available
