Heh! These sell for $12.95 EACH in catalogs but I made my own for pennies. Time is definitely $ in this case.:p Top pic (it was too big to upload here!)

I learned on a Bud and Ivy kit I got through a co-op. They are just embroidery floss-wrapped pipe cleaners (bent into a star shape so each arm and leg are 2 "thicknesses" and the ends join at the neck) and then I made felt tunics and used artificial flower petals to embellish.:) Their heads will be 12 mm wooden beads.:)
Those are great! Time definetly is money with those dolls (I sell them too ;)
If you want some great instructions how to make them there is a yahoo group called waldorf craft
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/waldorf_craft/?yguid=124729040\
the group is great, lots of natural toy ideas and instructions and someone took the time to put together an instruction sheet for those dolls that is even printable so that you can give kits as gifts. check out the photos section.
hope to see you guys there !

Those look great Candace! Are they surprises for your kiddos?
I have some of Joli's and I have them tucked away for ds' stocking. They're the sweetest little things, especially the baby ones. Love them, love them.
And now I can try and make a vegan version for my dear friend's kiddos! Yippee! (((((
