One of my own creations ”DOORSTOP DUMPY” PIG

This is one well fed looking character ”Doorstop Dumpy”

For those who may not have seen MY ”Doorstop Dumpies” before, this is one of the new ones, (Others I have previously made, can be found in the Doorstop Dumpy section of my about page – OR you can commission your own to fit in with your own decor – I am always up for a challenge feel free to contact me if you want a unique not yet made idea put into creation)

I created and designed and hand make from my own patterns a unique range of doorstops that I have called ”Dumpies” They are quite substantial and once the weighting element has been put inside by their new owner, they certainly do the job they have been designed for!

For reasons about shipping ie cost for weight and custom restrictions on sand/soils/grit (which can be viewed on my Etsy site under the ”Doorstop Dumpies”) you will see I have made them with a zip underneath the base for easy to fill access into a pre-inserted zipped bag.

So, if you are getting excited about the warm weather – that’s just around the corner!!! (let’s hope) Then, you might just be needing a character ”Doorstop Dumpy” to hold open your doors to let in the warm refreshing breezes, that is if you can ever stop cuddling it and put it down on the floor to do its job! 🙂

After having ‘An elephant’ visit my site and leave a message for me I was inspired to make another creation in my ”Doorstop Dumpies” range. Taking some vibrant flowery fabric and coordinating  plain pink cotton I set about designing a pattern for my idea. See below for the end result, I have first a small poem in the style of,     ‘An Elephant’ (just not quite as good as his!) 

 ELEPHANT ”DOORSTOP DUMPY”!

‘An Elephant’ spotted a lack of his kind on my site

So, I introduce a hefty creative ”Doorstop Dumpy”

It is the largest doorstop I have in size

I do hope An Elephant has a nice surprise

She’s certainly cute and not at all grumpy

A narrow trunk and huge wafting ears

She can sit and hold back almost any door

With lace and beads adorning her head

Very pretty she looks –It must be said!

Quite a character to have on your floor!!

“Anyone seen my Lily Pad? It was about this big!”

This Frog ‘Doorstop Dumpy’ was made from the pattern I designed. It was made out of green cottons and patch worked together. I added some coordinating ribbon around the waist  and used old buttons for the Frog’s eyes and to decorated the ribbon. As finishing touches I made a tongue and dragonfly out of fascinate r fabrics. This character ‘Doorstop Dumpy’ will hold back any standard door and decorate your room too!
