Review: Hats by A Little Wing

Like I mentioned a couple of posts back, I'm going to make a review on a shop called A Little Wing :> They're located in Philippines and offer hand-knitted hats for BJDs and humans on a commission basis. There are many lovely colors to choose from (all have cute names ♥) and you can also choose whether or not you want a pompom on top of the hat. For BJD-sized hats, there are currently two size options: one for SD/MSD and one for yoSDs/MSDs with slimmer head :3

I placed my order on October 7th and was then added to the making queue. At the time they only offered BJD hats in one size (SD/MSD) and I ordered two hats for my and Sarg's Withdolls, even though I was unsure if the hats would be too large for them (they have a 6-7inch head). But a week after ordering, I noticed that A Little Wing had just added an option for a smaller (yoSD) sized BJD hat and I was thrilled that it was still possible to change the size of those two hats in the order! <3

Overall the communication was excellent and very friendly, all of my messages were answered quickly and nicely~

The hats were shipped on October 27th, so the making of the hats took a little less than 3 weeks. There were many hats in my order and A Little Wing also had other orders to make, so I think the waiting time was very reasonable :) They also state on their ordering info that it can take up to 2-3 weeks to make the hats. They take an adorable photo of the packed hats with a speech bubble "We're going to location X" <3 Cute little details like that can really cheer up one's day~

The shipping took a bit over 2 weeks (arrived on November 14th), which is quite standard for regular airmail from South Korea to Finland. The package arrived safely and was carefully packed.

The order included 6 BJD hats and 2 human hats ^^ Half of them were for me, half for Sarg.

Sarg's doll sized hats~ "Rockstar" and "Frosting" in bigger and "Snow Owl" in smaller size

And mine ^^ "Bubblegum" with black pom and "Frosting" in bigger and "Tumbleweed" in smaller size

Nemora (Withdoll Priscilla) with "Snow Owl" ♥

Ophelia (Soom Heliot female) with "Frosting" ♥

Terra (Iplehouse EID Chris female) with "Rockstar" 83

We both also wanted to order matching hats for us and one of our dolls; Sarg chose a dark blue/black mix "Rockstar" to share with her Terra and I chose a pastel pink "Frosting" to share with Ceci (Iplehouse nYID Emilia).

Sarg goofing around with her and Terra's hats XD

Me and my perfect "Frosting" hat ♥ I love it so much~

I'm really happy with the order, everything went smoothly from the beginning to the very end! I definitely want to get more hats from A Little Wing in the future and totally recommend ordering from them~

      I think the Frosting ones are my favorites too, though that's not a surprise me being a pastel color addict XD
