New Halloween Plush Dolls

I've been wanting to make some plush dolls and recently was focused so hard on my other dolls that I needed a break. I had a design I did months ago so I set aside my Halloween dolls for a bit and cranked these out instead. They are based on a design I did for a Vampire Dotee Doll swap I did last year. I had so much fun with it I wanted to do larger plush. The original design didn't have arms or legs but were pillow like but I decided to push myself further and make dolls out of them. I'm in love with them! There was supposed to be a witch and a Skellie but time got away from me so I might not do those this year. I did do a Ghost, Vampire, Frank and his Bride.
Please let me know your thoughts on them. I'm thinking of re-doing the ghost. I made him first and I think he needs more detail. These will be OOAK and if they sell I won't make anymore until next year and they will be somewhat different.
This is the Dotee Doll that inspired my design.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my little creative efforts. Christmas is kind of screaming in my ear and I feel like I'm already late in starting that so more fun things are a coming!

  1. I'm having a hard time picking between the ghost or the vampire as my super favorites, but they are all cuties! I enjoy the use of mixed fabrics with these pieces, nice choice. =)

    The vampire coffin is a spectacular touch with the Dotee Doll!

  2. Those are so cute! Definitely will sell out. I think the ghost is perfect. Ghosts don't have a lot of detail to them.

  6. Your plush dolls keep stepping up more and more levels. I think these dolls are your best work yet. I love the mixed fabrics too. Loved how you designed their eyes. The ghost is awesome and I think it is perfect. Just like Finding Charm said ghosts don't have a lot of detail to them. They will for sure sell out!
