This site features custom made puppets. Originally, I was approached to create a Navajo Family to help teach Headstart age children the Navajo language. Each set is handmade and unique.


I am open to creating puppets unique to other ethnic groups. Please contact me for further explanation: yazbagz@gmail.com


I try to keep 2 sets of puppets ready for shipping. However, additional sets will require 3-4 weeks for completion. Larger orders (more than 10 sets) may require a longer completion time.
