DMAI Pro for Handmade dolls & toys

Doll and toy makers selling on Instagram: look-alike dolls from photos, crochet (amigurumi), felt and cloth dolls, collectible art dolls, puppets and wooden toys. Most orders are custom: the customer sends photos and picks skin tone, hair style and colour, outfit and accessories (glasses, hijab, uniform, team kit); the order joins a making queue and a final photo is sent for approval before shipping. The child's age and safety points (small parts, eyes, washing) must always be asked.
