I have purchased three paintings from Ms. Challender for my home and I liked them so well, I ordered a landscape from her as a gift. Her landscapes are so lovely, the colors and details are just wonderful and I would recommend her paintings to anyone wanting a wonderful addition to the decor in their home.

I received Carlota today. My mom was visiting and I was holding my son, so she opened the box. It was a very endearing to open the box and find this little person sitting there so calmly holding onto her blankie! My son (the dolly is not for him) loves her. He just broke into smiles and grabbed her and brought her close! I can't wait to give her to my husband's God child for Christmas!

Karen,

These dolls are so adorable! I love having a little replica of my baby girl, to put on her shelf. I dressed our doll in the outfit that my daughter came home from the hospital in. It's a great keepsake to see how little she once was.....

Yesterday the dolls arrived. They are really sweet..Their heads are much bigger than I imagined, making them more life like and cuddly. They were clinging on to their "blankies" for dear life. They must have been terrified on the plane! I have been re-assuring them that they won't be traveling like that again! You now have two babies in England and they have a home for life. I love them to bits. Thank you and best wishes for the new year.

I wanted to email you and thank you on behalf of my Mom for the wonderful doll. She absolutely loves it and was amazed by the craftsmanship and heart that went into making it! I wasn't expecting the doll to be that size-so life like!! I love it!!

Thanks again for the terrific job! I will recommend you to folks and I plan on doing business with you again soon!

I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the outstanding job that you did making my doll. You went all out in making it just how I wanted it and I think it is a beautiful doll - one that I couldn't have got anywhere else! I thank you again for taking my request after the deadline and really going the extra mile to get it done for Christmas. I will definitely recommend you to friends and family. What a wonderful talent you have!

Sincerely,

Shannon

The little cat tent is precious and so thoughtfully, lovingly and skillfully made. And I love the Happy Cat colors. I knew it was going to be wonderful, but it exceeded all my expectations.

The smallest and shyest of cats, a little girl named Deerly (she is half Manx and has a tail like a deer) was the first one in the tent. She, who is sometimes intimidated by one of her brothers and sometimes her Mom, took such delight in gently smacking everyone's face when they peeked in the tent! Best wishes for a happy new year......

My two cats have to be the world's most finicky cats when it comes to cat beds. I have spent quite a few dollars in the past year trying to find a catbed that they will actually sleep in. Miko would rather sleep on an old tshirt of mine than on anything nice and/or comfortable. Homer doesn't care as long as he's near Miko.

Well, we received the cat tents today and neither of these two will come out!! They took to them like magic!

They are so beautiful and well-crafted.

I just wanted to say "thank you" for offering such nice quality products and the lightening fast shipping....Wow!!

Hope to do business again in the future,

A. MacHolmes and two very satisfied cats!!

Your shipment arrived today and the cat tents are even more wonderful than they appeared in the pictures! My daughter is going to be so thrilled on Christmas! Thank you for your swift response. I'll be using your services again and will certainly let all my cat loving friends know about your site!

Dear Karen,

The dolls arrived on Monday but because today is a feast day, they remained in the box until now. We are very pleased with them. Juji is just as sweet as the picture and Jamila turned out perfectly. Her face with her freckles is so cute. My eldest daughter would like to say: Thankyou for the dolls, they are very cute. I hadn't imagined that Jamila would be so beautiful. My youngest daughter would like to say: Juji is very cute. You make very beautiful dolls,

Regards,

Hi Karen,

I want to thank you so much for creating the Anita Luna doll. I received her on February 18, and what a doll she is! You did an excellent job, especially her French braids. I lover her outfit - the dress teh the added touch of the buttons on the back and her shoes - and her face is real cute, too. I love her!

I know my mother is going to go crazy over her, too. I'm anxious to take it to her in April. Thank you again for doing such a great job. I look forward to doing business with you again in the future.

Hi Karen,

Just wanted you to know that Sophie the girl, looked right into Sophie the doll's face, mesmerized, and reached for her nose. My sister LOVED the Beagle PJ's.

Again, I'd like to thank you for putting so much love in the dolls. It shows! When I brought her to work and pulled her out of the box, all you could here were sudden in-breaths and oohs an and ahhs...

Merry Christmas,

Peggy

I just wanted you to know Kailyn loves her doll! She carries it everywhere, sings to it, reads to it, in their own language, of course!

Thanks again,

Hi Karen,

The privacy screen arrived today. It's beautiful! I love it. The kitties are getting used to it and checking it out. Because my cats are getting older, I had to put a kitty box in our bedroom and didn't like the way it stood out, so the kitty screen looks great. I just wanted to let you know how happy I am and that it arrived in fine shape.

Thank you for your great product. In searching the Internet for a catbox screen, your's were the best in the pictures, and I'm very happy with the actual product and the way it looks in my home.

Dear Karen,

Your tent arrived yesterday and I have so many adjectives to describe my delight with it that I could fill this email with accolades.

Calico Peekaboo moved in instantly and looked so beautiful framed adoringly through the little round entrance.

Gratefully,

It's just fabulous' you do good work!

Hi Karen,

Just got Mya a couple days ago and wanted to let you know how happy I am with her. She is so cute. My daughter is going to love her. I can't wait to see her face when she opens her on her birthday she will be sooo happy. Thank you so much for helping me and being so nice.

Thanks,

I got my cat bed today! My cat is totally excited.... I can tell! It's so large that she has plenty of room, and I know this bed will hold up better than her past beds. I'm positive that she'll sleep in it every night, just like she did with her old one. It's great! What a talent you have to making such sweet, elegant tents! I took some pictures of her in it, and when I get the roll developed, I am going to send one to you! She honestly looks like a spoiled little princess! I love it! Thanks a lot!

Hi Karen,

I just had to email you and let you know that I can't stop looking at my cat's new

privacy screen. Before I didn't want to see my cat litter box and now I just want to look

at the Privacy Screen all the time. It is too cute! Thank you so much for brighting up

my cat's private area and they both seem to really enjoy it as well. You have wonderful

items and I will be starting my christmas shopping soon!

Have a wonderful day!

Karen,

I just wanted to share these pictures with you, the boys seem to love the tent, they did the smell thing first checking it out as normal animals do and then crawled in. I think they love it.

What an awesome tent. Thanks for sending it so quick. Also the box it came in is a huge success for them too, they love empty boxes.

Carol

Hi Karen,

Just wanted to let you know I received my order last week and the screen is beautiful and the tent is adorable. My cat, Rascal, was sleeping in it the morning after I got it and I was pleased to see there is plenty of room for her, as she is a 16 pound cat. Thanks so much. I'll be sure to refer people to your website.

Thanks,

Stacey

Oh Karen, "Emily" is beautiful!!! You have the shunt PERFECT!!!! The mailman was delivering her just as I was pulling out of the drive and so, of course, I had to grab the box and take it with us. We were on our way to a friend's house for playgroup, so we waited until we got there to open the box. I want you to know that i sat there and cried and couldn't control myself when I saw the doll. Emily LOVED her and kept pulling up her hair and her dress to check out her scars. You have so much talent to be able to create such a perfect doll with only a few descriptions from me and pictures. My friends at the playgroup just sat there amazed at how perfect you have the shunt. Thank you so much for doing such a wonderful thing for my sweet daughter. I do hope that you are willing to continue to create these shunt dolls for other children. They are so special!

Thanks again,

Naysa arrived yesterday! She is absolutely perfect. She arrived while Becca was napping...And I felt like a little girl...I had to open her. I am glad I did this while Becca was asleep, because I cried like a baby upon meeting her. She is beautiful, and everything is just right _ right down to the eye color. You did a brilliant job. I admire you talent. A gift from God you are.

Becca was so very excited!!! She looked over every square inch of Naysa and found her to match herself - belly scars and all! She has pointed out the matching scars and shunt to everyone she has introduced her to thus far. And the "starry, moony,sunny" dress is a hit, too! Last night she removed her shoes and socks and cuddled her all night.. that was after a wagon ride to the park and story time with her yesterday afternoon! I cannot put into words the joy I feel seeing Becca with her new doll, Naysa. Theirs will definitely be a lasting friendship for years to come.

Thank you so very much, from our hearts to yours. The pictures will on the way this week. Feel free to use what is said here or the pictures in any way you see fit to promote your outstanding work.

With Love and Thankfulness,

Kathleen and Becca

Hi Karen,

The long-awaited surprises arrived! Finally! Thank you very much! They're both very beautiful, and the little girl has been holding both dolls, hugging and cuddling with them. They're her babies.

You can be sure they will be very much loved.

As this year draws to a close, we'd like to wish you and your family a happy, peaceful and prosperous 2006!

Best Regards

Hi Karen,

I received Matthew and Emily the other day. Thank you so much! They are so beautiful. I love their red cheeks!!! and cute outfits. Thank Hollie for letting me borrow hers for Emily. Now my house will be excellent advertising for you now that I have 5 dolls. I'm sure I'll be back in the future and I'll send lots of interested patrons your way. Thank you again,

Sincerely,

Hi. Just opened the dolls and I had to tell you I am absolutely thrilled with them. They really are more precious than I had ever imagined. It is clear that you love your work and take great pride in each of your creations. They will surely be a most special addition to your christmas morning.

Thank you,

Dawn
