About

i heart collectibles™ is a creation of the heart that began with a simple idea, evolving into adorable and unique handcrafted collectibles.

Though I have worked primarily with unfinished wood, I have recently branched out, and began working with polymer clay

Little Mister Big Ears

 - which I have fallen in love with. I now have a huge assortment of polymer clay collectibles that I will be posting on my blog, and soon - on my web site - to be enjoyed for viewing or owning. Most of what I make are miniatures, but each day is an adventure, so who knows what tomorrow will bring. I hope you enjoy what you see. Thank you visiting!

Original 4.5” i heart collectibles™ Vintage-Style Peg Doll's heads, arms, and stands are firmly attached. Arms are poseable, and clothes are made not to be removed. Clothing for the dolls are made from 100% cotton and/or cotton blend, and are designed and sewn at the time each doll is created. Arms are made of sturdy, bendable chenille stem fitted securely through the body. (A select few of the first Peg Dolls arm's were hot glued to the body, under the clothes. This will be noted with those particular dolls.) Though the artist has not made any new Vintage-Style Peg Dolls in quite some time, there is a wide assortment to choose from, with new ones soon to be added. Custom Orders for this style are available upon request.

i heart collectibles™ are meticulously, carefully, and individually hand crafted. Wooden collectibles are painted with non-toxic water-based paint; and finished with a non-toxic gloss glaze. The features and details on each collectible is decided at the time of creation, making each truly one-of-a-kind. Replication is possible, but no two are exactly alike. 

i heart collectibles™ wooden miniatures range in size from 1 ⅛" - 2 ¾".  Choose from
