I started making puppets as a child. Now I create many types; finger puppets, 20 characters of Hand and Rod puppets, and sometimes parade size puppets. I also teach my craft to children and adults. I am evolving into a puppeteer, which I intend to retire into.

My standard line of puppets have faces made of stoneware that are hand painted. Their bodies are usually made of fleece or velveteen fabrics. Rod puppets have 3 wood control sticks. My latest endeavors are polyfoam constructions. It is light weight and can be made larger than life. I also make what is the "Puphat", a hat which is also a puppet.

 Donna's work is available in our Holiday store.
