Magnificent!
Barong is now busy protecting the house, frightening evil spirits but grinning heartily at the rest of us. He has added a colorful and life-enhancing presence that is a delight to encounter daily. After his arrival I particularly enjoyed watching Barong dance rituals on YouTube and highly recommend them to anyone contemplating ordering the mask since you’ll understand his significance and character better. Incidentally, I had no trouble hanging him on the wall with a tiny bit of ingenuity.

Beautiful!
I originally saw something like this while staying at a resort in Bali. Sadly, I could not find it there while I was visiting, but was thrilled to find it on Novica?s website. It is so much more beautiful in person and I am immensely happy with this purchase! It has become one of my favorite pieces in my home!
Family Tradition
A tradition that began with my Grandmother. Her church supported these missions, and she passed the significance of the "Worry Doll" message to me: Place a "Worry Doll under your pillow when you go to bed at night and give her your worries!". Now, my granddaughters are receiving "Worry Dolls", and I share the legend with them. Barbara
