1 Collection 23003 – Elsie

Hi there!

My name is Elsie and I am a Mel & Steff doll.
I am special because I have been handmade right down to my little button nose.’
I have been individually made so there is no other doll who is exactly the same as me!

I am a soft and cuddly cloth doll.
I am going on an adventure in my favourite dress. Did you see all the animals hiding there? I love my sturdy boots I team with my long socks, perfect for walking through the bush. I have my little sling bag to collect all the treasures I find.
I have tied up my hair with a big bandana bow that matches my dress.
All my clothes are removable and you can dress me up again.

I am proud that my creation has provided a better life for the women from the urban poor in Sri Lanka.
In crafting our little family, they have been enabled & empowered to become skilled artisans who weave the meticulous details you see on me.

We are just like you’.
The Mel and Steff cloth dolls tagline says it all.

Our philosophy at Mel and Steff is to create little people that resemble children from all walks of life, spanning across the globe, across a multitude of ethnicities. Lovingly handmade, each little doll encompasses features that not only represents, but celebrates the beauty of diversity.

Mel & Steff™ play dolls are handmade with meticulous attention to detail, right down to their cute little button nose.

Each textile doll is individually cut, sewn & stuffed. Faces are hand drawn & then embroidered with the finest of stitches. Yarn for hair is wrapped around the template, then cut & sewn, ready to be attached by hand to the doll. Outfits are cut & sewn individually.

At Mel & Steff there are no factory lines. Each doll is handcrafted by skilled artisans. Therefore, our cloth dolls are just like little people, some cheeky, some cute and no two are alike!
