Zombuki dolls aren’t zombies so don’t be afraid. In fact they are stunningly creative and intricately designed with expert skill.

Ok, here is a little known fact about me… I am a complete doll nut! I love them and wish I could afford to collect them, but alas I cannot at this time in my life. Not to mention my fiancé would kill me if I took up more space with all my little collectable items lol. When I say “doll nut” I am not talking Barbie’s (although my Aunts collect them and I have never held anything against Barbie), I mean dolls that are a little different from the norm.

In this article I am just going to cover the most recent dolls I have come across that tug on my “I want” strings… they are called Zombuki dolls. I was reading the blog on Shanalogic.com and found a post about these dolls and I instantly fell head over heels in love with them!

They are hand made by Brigitte Coovert from Pullip, Dal, and Blythe models. She painstakingly paints the faces (and sometimes parts of the bodies) and also designs the clothes, hair and eyes. The result is simply amazing!

Have a look, I think you will love them as much as I do.

The downside is that the dolls are pretty steep in price… like a car payment steep. At $600-$800 per doll, I won’t be getting these anytime soon which works out well as she has a waiting list as it is. She does have an Etsy store with related memorabilia such as notebooks and necklaces though for those who like the look of the dolls but cant handle the price tag on them. Also on her Etsy Site are little wooden dolls called Kokeshi which are adorable.

Shanalogic.com has some really awesome necklaces made by Brigitte that are super affordable and stylish. Most of them are a cameo-like style on a ball chain that are fresh and funky. You can find them here.

If you haven’t gotten your fill of doll talk today, don’t worry! I have many more dollies to talk about so stay tuned for the next article on dolls.
