Teresa is dollmaker and graduate of fine art, creating handcrafted dolls using much-loved materials that evoke precious memories and recall celebration, people, places, and events.
These handcrafted dolls offer people the opportunity to have a unique and authentic piece of Irish craft. Each of the twelve dolls, handmade and heartfelt, capture the spirit of the people of Ireland. They have been created from vintage cloth, wools, and other materials, and are the perfect keepsake gift to celebrate and cherish special occasions like births, weddings, Christmas, First Holy Communions, birthdays, or your visit to Ireland.
Teresa also makes customised bespoke dolls to order, which are made from fabric items supplied to her by the client. She uses precious items such as baby clothes, the school uniform, a man’s cap, a grandad’s overcoat. You can read more about the creative process for bespoke dolls here
