Have you ever searched like crazy for something that really suits someone? Something that is personal, original and brings a smile to your face as soon as it is unwrapped? Maybe you are looking for a gift for a housewarming, a wedding, a birth or just… because. Something that lasts. Something that tells a story.
Look, then you need to be at De Poppetjeskraam. Because there stories are captured in wood. No standard trinkets or mass production, but hand-painted wooden dolls - carefully assembled into a miniature version of your family, your relatives or your memory. And whether you like to have something made or prefer to get creative yourself: at De Poppetjeskraam you can do both. Read on quickly...
Two ways to be creative with the dolls
1 - Bring your wooden family to life
The hand-painted wooden family dolls are really something special. Think of a doll mother with glasses, a father with a bow tie, children in their favorite colors or even your own wooden mini pet. Each doll is painted with care, completely tailored to your family.
From bridal dolls to wooden angels and dolls of cats, dogs, rabbits - they are often given as an original and personal gift on special occasions. But let's be honest: they are also irresistible just for yourself. The angel is a favorite here! View the collection of wooden dolls .
Nice detail: you can complete your set with a wooden decorative board or a stylish glass dome. This way you make it a real work of art for the cupboard, the dresser or even the nursery (maternity gift!).
2 - Get started with blank wooden figures
Are you more into crafting, mixing colours and the fun of making things yourself? Then the DIY collection is your thing. De Poppetjeskraam offers blank wooden dolls, handy accessories and the most beautiful paint from DecoArt Americana. With this you can transform the dolls into your own creative doll family. Discover everything to paint wooden dolls yourself .
A great activity to do with your kids, or just as a relaxing project for yourself on a rainy Sunday afternoon.
From memory to decoration
What makes a wooden doll so special? It is more than just the shape or the wood. It is the meaning you give it. Each doll tells a story: of love, of loss, of growth. They bring memories to life and literally put your family in the spotlight.
Whether you choose a set of bridal dolls as a wedding gift, an angel for someone you miss, or your entire family in a row - you give something that lasts and is tangible. A small gesture with a great emotional value. Take a look around in the De Poppetjeskraam webshop and discover what is possible.
