Custom Puppets

We Are Puppeteers builds customized puppets based  on your design. If you do not have a design, we can  collaborate with you to design a puppet that meets  your creative needs.

We Are Puppeteers builds custom puppets in many  styles; sock puppets, hand puppets, glove puppets, and finger puppets. When possible we use lightweight  non toxic materials.
