OUR STORY
As the founder of Emmie May I have worked in childcare for seven years and have loved watching how children interact with their toys and what they like.
​
As a child I was always interested in sewing and creating new things and toys for myself. Now as an adult I am excited to share those with others.
​
The Emmie May Rag Doll is a simple design with geometric shapes and patchwork designs to add something different to your everyday rag doll. The 5 sensory tags of thin and thick ribbon and lace down the body of each of our dolls is a great stimulation for the growing child and also an aesthetic design to be enjoyed by adults as well.
​
Every child and sometimes every adult needs a sweet rag doll in their life and an Emmie May Rag Doll is the perfect addition to any tea party, bedroom, living room or office space. They add a sense of warmth and comfort to any room they are in.
​
Our goal is to provide a warming presence to each household and child's life to which an Emmie May Rag Doll enters. While simultaneously helping children and families in need with a $5 per standard doll donation to a children's charity.

Artwork
I found myself in a rut with creativity. I felt as though there was a lot of creative energy in my body however not all of it was being released.
Painting was something I had always loved the concept of however always thought I was not good enough to pursue.
Then one day I realised that you don't have to be the best at something to do it. You don't have to be the best t something to enjoy it or to love it. Painting is an action that brings me peace and it brings me joy as I move the colours around until they find the place they were meant to be.
My paintings are not special in the grand scheme of amazing artists that have existed before and that exist now. However they are special to me and I hope they are special to you as well.
