Great Gifts!

I LOVE these little worry dolls! They are great as a decoration on a gift or just to give a friend who is going through a hard time. My granddaughters sleep with one under their pillows, to "take their worries away."

Perfect gift

We gave this to my mom's BFF(mom is 91). It was the perfect gift for a woman who sews well. She was so thankful. Really great workmanship. Even the way it was wrapped was magical.
