Hello, I'm Gayle and these are a few of my Raggedies.
My dolls can now be found in Doll and Raggedy Collections worldwide, thanks to "YOU" my many loyal Collectors and Raggedy Friends!
I think you will agree that the variety of character dolls I offer ….make for great conversation pieces and add a touch of “Variety” to your Raggedy Collections……..and can fill a spot until you are lucky enough to find an affordable “original” to take it’s place!!.
I hope you will take some time to visit each of my pages....Links for each page are listed on the left-hand side of each page.
I have covered alot of information ...so take a few minutes to read the list
Most pictures can be clicked on to enlarge and many will have a "Link" below them that will take you to a page dedicated to that particular character.
I Just Love Raggedies!!
It is my sincere hope that my website will instill that love of Raggedies in each and everyone of you as well !
I have spent many heart-felt hours putting together all of the information I have gathered from a variety of sources over several years .
I wanted to place it in ONE location for others to learn all that I have learned about our delightful little red-headed Raggedy Ann and her many friends.
And before you leave....I hope that you will take a minute and sign my Guestbook and let me know what you think of your experience here, at
Not So Raggedy Acre.
You might also want to read some of my other Guestbook entries, my Customer's Letters, or my eBay Feedback or maybe you would like to know a little more About Me.....they are all just a "Click" away!
Now, ENJOY!!
My dolls are meticulously designed and created to capture
the whimsical nature and charm of these delightful
"Raggedy" characters from the past!!
Bringing to life......Reproductions of the original
versions by Volland, Exposition, Georgene, Knickerbocker, Silsby, and
Molly-'Es, Raggedy Ann and Andy and their Best Friend, Beloved Belindy & her counterpart Benji.
As well as my own designs and creations of other
Gruelle's Raggedy Ann storybook characters like Eddie Elephant, Eddie Elf, Pirate Chieftan, Uncle
Clem the Scotch Doll, Percy Policeman, Henny and
Frederika the Dutch twins, Cleety the Clown, The Nice Fat
Policeman, Snitznoodle,Wooden Willie, Mr.Minky and The
Camel with the Wrinkled Knees........and a variety of
sizes and styles of Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy.

You will also find a link to a "special page" that will tell you all that I have learned about EACH of these characters!

& Danny Daddles
Visit my What's New page to see all of my latest Creations!
Due to popular request......
I am working on plans to create an entire series of ALL of my Characters in 7 1/2 inch, for those of you who have LARGE
Collections and do not have room for the 20" size. The price will either remain the same, or may be slightly higher.... as they will still be my "Original Designs" and will probably be more difficult to work with such small pieces.
Each doll is an Heirloom Quality Collectible
Treasure.........and will add that
"One-of-a-Kind" distinction to your Doll or
"Raggedy"collection!
