Dolores: a handmade, upcycled plush friend

So funny and lovable, Dolores represents a soft-spoken strength, a dreamy view when life is dreary, and a warm hug. She’s a story, like all Bebito toys, and she’s also a friend. She’s reading Louis L’Amour in the library basement, and she’s baking dark chocolate something or other because it was a rough day. She’s listening.

This unique Dolores the Librarian Doll is crafted from a variety of upcycled knit pieces, and embellished with hand embroidery and applique. Her face and buttons are made of felt and her ears and feet are made from recycled wool and corduroy. Her spiky hair is repurposed suede in periwinkle blue. She is completely stuffed with sheep’s wool from Wyoming.

Dolores is almost 7 inches (17 cm) tall, and she contains no sharp or easily removable parts. Hand washing and tumble drying on low are recommended for her care.

***Dolores is a shy librarian with a friendly smile. She has starred as the heroine in numerous epic dramas of her own imagination, and she has also been a supporting actress too many times to remember. She is always cheerful though her name actually means "pains." She has long been familiar with the glorious irony of life. Dolores only likes comfortable shoes or slippers and she has sooo many sweaters, enough to wear a different one every day.***
