If you have someone that you care about that’s fighting cancer, donate platelets. It’s more involved than donating blood, but platelets are always in dire need. Also donate blood when you can, it’s fast, easy, and could save a life.

Today was the final shipment of orders for doll braces/splints. It's been an amazing five years, filled with lots of little smiles and happy tears.

I may do some giveaways in the future to use up my supplies, but the order taking ended on July 1st. I hope I've made a small difference in some of your journeys.

A very special shout out to Nicola over at for carrying on the torch. 🧸

I'll likely continue to use this account to post cakes, photography, and other hobbies I enjoy. So I'll still be around, following the progress of so many of you that I've grown to admire. 🙌🏼

❤️ to all,
Bob

“Check out Bongo’s (Myah’s doll that she named 🤣) new braces!!! She can now match Myah 🥰 LOVE how these turned out. We got them from Shishka Bob Design and they could not be more perfect. I was bummed to find out that this shop will be closing down in July, but I totally understand why. This shop owner has been a dream to work with. He gives a significant discount for acts of kindness and truly cares about his customers. He even wraps the package like a gift for the kids he sends them to. He has made such a positive impact on the world and I know he will continue to do so. Thank you so much Bob for putting such a big smile on Myah’s face. I love that she can now have a doll that she can relate to. Such little things help to normalize the devices that Myah has to use and we are so thankful. Although, we will miss this shop, we hope Bob enjoys some much deserved “free-time.””

So ridiculously cute! 🥰

And thank you Lisa for the kind words! ❤️

I don't know how many people saw my shop closing announcement back in February (it was kind of hidden under a post about reopening in March), but I figured I should make another announcement before closing. I explained why I’m closing in the other post, but I’ll paste it below in the comments for those that didn't see it.

The good news is that there is someone else that now makes doll leg braces and splints! Her name is Nicola and she lives in the UK! She used to work as an orthotist, so she knows what she's doing (unlike me 😉)! I think you will find her doll and teddy bear AFOs, SMOs, etc. are more solidly built than mine and will survive the wrath of your little ones with flying colors! She makes them for a wider range of dolls and stuffed animals than I do too! 🎉 Nicola is also working on a number of other items to provide a wider array of representation! Please go check out her Instagram Instagram.com/teddyfootsplint and here on Facebook Teddy Footsplint and give her a follow! She's got some great ideas and things in the works to help make you littles feel included! 😍

Lots of ❤️ to each of you!
Bob

“Isabelle’s transition to braces was totally seamless and I think you were a big part of that!! Thank you for spreading kindness around the world!”

I love hearing that the doll braces/splints help kids transition to wearing their own! That's a big part of what sparked my interest in starting this to begin with. ❤️

“He was SO excited about this surprise! He was just speechless that Bob (his doll is really named Bob!) could get braces too! So now Bob will join Owen next week on his big day to get new braces! Thank you again!”

Love to see the smile on this little guy’s face! He's a fan of the Avengers (so am I!), so his AFO and SMO for his little friend (Bob) have an Avengers pattern on them!

😍 Just the cutest! 😍

Etsy shop now open! 🎉

Good news and difficult news. First the good news- I will be reopening my Etsy shop on March 6! 🎉 Please be patient as orders take time to make (each order is custom and hand made), and with the current situation with the USPS, once they ship, packages are moving slowly.

Now for the other news- July will make 5 years since I started my passion project- Shishka Bob Design. I never planned to make more than the two pairs I made for my friend’s daughters, but it morphed into making thousands of pairs that have shipped to families all over the world! I intentionally gave away far more than I sold, and never paid myself or made any profit to speak of. Anyway, I think 5 years is a good run, and I find it more and more difficult to juggle my real job, family, and life in general, along with making the doll leg braces/splints. So, with a heavy heart, I will be closing my shop in July and have no expectations of reopening. I’ve been blessed to have had the opportunity to serve such an amazing community of supportive caring people. I’ve made many friends and feel honored to have been accepted as a part of, and having had a glimpse into, such an incredible community of people that hold each other up and help one another get through the difficult times, while celebrating the little wins (which are actually huge accomplishments) along the way.

Love to you all!
❤️Bob
