Hi,
I am looking for a website or catalogue that sells THE persona dolls, not replicas but the origenal ones, does anyone know where I can find one?
Also I have seen a fantastic doll on ebay made by underprivileged Tibetan women, it looks fantastic but I wanted more info on it, I dont think they will reply before the auction is over. Has anyone heard of The Tibetan Bopa Doll Project? This is who makes the dolls, I wondered if they had teir own website where they would sell more of these dolls?
Thanks

Thanks,
Do you know if there anywhere that they sell more traditional clothes for these dolls? I would like to have a few sets of clothes to change the dolls into.

I think my next purchase will be a persona doll. I just can't decide which one!

I recently went on the Persona Doll training which was run by these people.
I am fortunate that I live in Surrey as our Early Years Team have provided every delegate with a doll which costs around £65.
You can get different types of clothing for the dolls directly from the company.....you can also get accessories such as glasses etc.
What I also found really good about the dolls is that their faces are pretty neutral......I was given a male doll but wanted female so now he has had a sex change :laughing:
I purchased clothes from Tesco (6-9 month range) and re dressed her!

Please see my new thread named Multicultural handmade dolls...well worth a look.

Sorry to but in but what is a persona doll? I did empathy doll training run by my local early years and we got a free doll, are they the same thing?

I went on this course too ( Surrey ) and got a free doll. I'm glad I didn't have to pay the £65 for it because my children are terrified of it !
It does look spookily real and one of my mindees won't even be in the same room as it :rolleyes:
