Nerissa - daughter of the sea, an organic mermaid doll



Nerissa finally came together, with organic cotton velours, hand dyed rainbow wool from Liz of The Sitting Tree, and natural carded Canadian wool. Her skin is made of organic cotton knit, and her vest is made with hand dyed felt in mottled greens and blues.



Her name means 'daughter of the sea', and she's about 20" from head to tip of tail.



I have a few more organic mermaid dolls in the works, and will accept a few custom orders between now and May, when the new baby arrives. I have organic velours available in pink, purple, green, yellow, berry red, white and forest green... and the light blue shown on Nerissa. What colors and combinations would you like to see?

p.s. life has been so busy these last few weeks, I'm going to extend the Marimekko + felted heart pebbles givewaway for a few more days.. you can enter here
