The story started 50 years ago when Hanife grandma made a doll for her granddaughter's school task.While Döndü was going to school, the travellers came across on the way with Döndü and loved that pretty handmade rag doll which they were eager to purchase. Afterwards,The ladies of the village came out with an idea of making such beautiful hand made dolls to sell to travellers visiting their village..
Ladies use bottle cap for the head part.The body part is made of a stick which is rapped with cotton and dressed with colorful and traditional fabrics.It takes a short time for the ladies to make one doll, as the hands are so capable, which they show the same performance on viewing carpets and rugs..
