Welcome to the #cRAftingForCharity auctions in aid of the Syrian Children’s Relief Fund! Any “Thorinton” lovers out there? This is the fan package for you! The ultimate fan items for lovers of long-locked warrior Thorin, and overbearing master Thornton. If you appreciate hand-made items, and also are practically minded and like a bit of bling, well, look no further – you can get it all in one auction. What is particularly amazing about this particular auction is that the amazingly detailed Thornton doll (see below) is hand-made!!! The detail of this piece by Pat is amazing. Check Mr Thornton’s pocket watch! His top hat! All the clothes are removable. What’s the point of having a doll if you can’t undress it, says Pat with a wink. And to top it all off, Pat is also including a soft Thorin tote bag and a Thorin bangle that would look back at me… eh, wrong film… would *look good* on any wrist. This is a fantastic opportunity to get fan art not just for one, but for two characters. Thank you to Pat for parting with this wonderful contribution.

This multi-chaRActer package contains a 12 inch Thornton doll, handmade on the basis of a Ken/action figure, with accessories, a Thorin tote bag, and a Thornton bangle (human size!). All clothes are removable. The doll comes with tiny accessories such as a pocket watch and a book.
