palooka handmade dolls

Need a stocking stuffer for a little friend this Christmas? Then you might like to cast an eye over the Palooka Handmade collection, a range of plush toys and rag dolls, all lovingly crafted by Melbourne maker Sarah Gully. The good lady stitches these highly huggable companions from vintage fabrics, so you know you’re making an ethical choice when purchasing her wares (hooray for secondhand everything!). Of course, you can always nab one for yourself, too; with tattooed ladies and good old Frida (the patron saint of cool women) in the mix, we’d hardly blame you. Pop over to Sarah’s online store for more.
