weird and wonderful dolls from the etsy plush team fairytale challenge



If you have a love of the original, unvarnished (and pretty dark!) Grimm’s Fairytales, you will love these Three Sisters dolls as much as I do. The dolls came about through a challenge from the Etsy Plush Team. In this particular challenge, plush artists were matched, and each created characters from the other’s favorite children’s story. Zeldaloo suggested the story of Little One Eye, Little Two Eyes, and Little Three Eyes — one of my favorite fairytales, too. As abbydid explains, “One Eye and Three Eyes were the gorgeous and privileged sisters, while Two Eyes was the oddball outcast, only worthy of their leftover scraps. Now, I don’t want to give away the ending, but it involves a magic goat, a fairy godmother, and a golden apple.” You can get all three of these fanstastic sisters for just $42.



But don’t stop there — check out the Plush Team site for more amazing dolls that are the result of collaborations between fantastic Etsy artists, like the combo Red Riding Hood/Big Bad Wolf by AreaThriftyOne, Tweedle-Dum and Tweedle-Dee by redmag, and Zeldaloo’s Princess and the Pea, complete with a stuffed pea with eyes. –Mary T.
