This week's giveaway is a beautiful, carefully handmade, one of a kind, 15" Waldorf style doll from Moonchild Studio. This particular doll (pictured on the left) was specially made for our readers at Smaller* and that's not all.... Berrie was kind enough to offer the readers a 20% discount on a Custom Order Doll for a January, February or March delivery. Just go to her Etsy site or blog and use SMALLMAG as the code when you order.
A Moonchild doll is an all-natural doll that is made with natural fibers. This doll is made with European cotton interlock fabric that complies with Oeko-tex standard 100, wool stuffing, and mohair hair. Her clothes are hand made with European corduroy and knit fabrics and her hat and shoes are made with 100% wool felt. She comes with a care sheet and a re-blushing cloth. Waldorf style dolls typically have a neutral expression so the child can add the feelings that the doll is needing to fulfill. As a child holds and plays with a Moonchild doll, the wool stuffing holds the child's body heat. Besides being great for educational and creative play, these toys are safe for your child and good for the environment. This gorgeous doll will be a wonderful addition to your child's life that can be passed down through the generations.All you have to do is leave a comment telling us what you think is so special about this doll.
One lucky reader will be picked at random and notified by email. (Please leave your email address when you post a comment!). The winner will also be posted in the blog the following Monday. Our winners from last week (picked by random.org) were comments no.1, 3, 5, 6, and 12- congratulations!! Please contact us with your email address.
This doll is SO special because she is a Moonchild doll! Her face is so precious and she seems just a little bit mischevious! ^_^

Berry's dolls are special in so many ways. They have this warm, gentle face, that one can really imagine being filled with emotion, but yet so neutral. The sweetest cheeks she gives them make the dolls baby-ish just enough, not overly. The clothes are out of the era, out of this world - in her own fashion and style. We love Berry!
