The History of My Dolls...Items made by a creative child.

Handmade 18" rag dolls, plushies, scarfs  & beanies 

 

 

My name is Teaonna and I'm 12 years old. I have been interested in and creating crafts for as long as I can remember. About four years ago, when I was 8 years old, I made my first 8" bean filled doll with with my Aunt Amber. A year later, I was making the popular Rainbow Loom bracelets and charms which were a big hit at my school followed by my homemade flubber which kids enjoyed for hours. By 10 years old I upgraded my 8" doll to 18", had two different ethnicities, and with the help of my dad, started a small business. As time passed my mom and I sold many dolls to family, friends, and anyone who wanted a doll. We as a family started developing different kinds of clothes, different dolls, marketing ideas and more.

​
Today, I am 12 years old and I continue to enjoy creating and making my crafts. I now have seven different types of dolls, several types of clothing, and thanks to the Mentor-ship of the LiBush owners, my African dolls can now be found at the LiBush International Connection African store in beautiful Old Sacramento.

​I like to help others whenever I can, and because my grandmother is a breast cancer survivor, I decided to donate a percentage of the proceeds to the Prostate and Breast Cancer Foundation.
