was a normal occurrence to see
kids all over with their folks, hold

around various legs. A sight that
caused people to stop and take
long looks was that of seemingly
many kids taking time outs at vari

teringa single audible wail of tears.
The kids in that area turned out to
be Tender Heart Kids, handmade
stuffed “kids” made by Tom and
Nadine McCafferty of Creative
Hands of Grovetown, Georgia.
These figures are child life-sized
and dressed and accessorized for
various characteristics with rib
bons on hats, toy slingshots, rub
ber frogs, and little teddy bears.
The McCaffertys note that they
found a pattern and have been
making various “kids” for two
oass Besides the cufe kids that
ook like they are crying figures,
the couple also makes kids in sizes
and positions to bend over car en
gines, lean on the bumper or even
work underneath cars. They can
also personalize the kids with
clothes that customers want to use

The crying kids must be a new
trend because a second group of
folk;i:ll:‘ the crafts fair vcdr: alué:;t
up some crying kids. “Cry-
Baby” kids were figures dressed in
different cute clothing and hats
and toys. The Cry-Baby makers,
Sharon and Tracie Fallaw, noted
that they could custom-make the
dolls as cowboys, angels, firemen,
ball players, prissy girls, tomboys
and other figures. For more infor
mation, call the Fallaws at (706)
6566-1421.
If the fair last Saturday whetted
your appetite for another fair of all
sorts of creative homemade items
not found in local stores, look for
the Christmas Made in the South
Show due to set up at the Civic
Center in Augusta in November.
