Bamboletta - what does it mean?
'Bamboletta' means 'little doll' in Italian and is a term of endearment that parents use for their children. It was the nickname of a young girl in Canada from her father, and became the name of her business, Bamboletta Dolls. You can visit their website to learn more about the history of the business, and shop from their Etsy store.
How do I know Bamboletta Dolls?
I met Christina, the woman behind the dolls, through my Etsy store, and she is one of my doll sweater customers. Using 100% wool yarn, I'm knitting sweaters for these adorable made-by-hand dolls. I'm very eager to see my sweaters being modeled by these angels.
A lot of love goes into ever one of the Bamboletta dolls as you can see.

Customer Testimonials
"My boys LOVED it so much!!! At first, I saw a friend's doll and decided to have it done more for me (we all have a child within.) than for my boys. What a surprise - boys do love dolls too!!!!! It brought tears to my eyes when they opened the box and immediately started to care and parenting the little dolls. It's nice to see them interacting with the dolls because we realize what they appreciate in our parenting my older one says to the doll:"Thanks for being who you are",,,,exactly like we say to him and it makes me happy to see that he passes it on to his "child". Thank you so much, Christina!!!! Your work is truly amazing .it seems that the dolls come with some pixie dust that make us all fall in love with them."

I just wanted to let you know that Celeste arrived safely into our home (ordered through Natural Pod) and she is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I ordered her for Christmas for my daughter and I had trouble putting her back in the box to wait until then! She is so obviously made with loving hands. Thanks for creating her.

Thank you so much for the beautiful dolls, my girls love them and have now fallen asleep holding the beauties. They are a work of art and
one can tell that they are created and filled with love. They truly are treasures that will be cared for, for eternity.
Veronica
my daughter received a bamboletta toddler doll last Christmas and it soon became her 'lovie", chewed on, slept with, carried around, and now walked in a stroller. it both calms and delights her. and the true reason i chose it -to please my aesthetic standards and speak to my soul, seems irrevelant at this point. these dolls simply do what they are suppose to - provide comfort, companionship and bring a little joy into people's lives.
