Description
This little worry doll arrives with her own storage bag and a gentle message to love yourself, made by hand in Guatemala from cotton thread and natural fibre. She stands about 5.5cm tall, 3.5cm long and 1.5cm wide, small enough to sit in the palm of your hand. Her head is wrapped in red thread above a red top with a tiny gold heart, and her skirt is woven in bright stripes of red, blue, green, yellow and purple. She comes with a cream drawstring bag tied with a red cord, mounted on a printed card that reads "Love yourself".
Because she is so small, she is easy to keep close: on a bedside table, in a desk drawer at work, or tucked into a handbag or coat pocket inside her bag. A worry doll is a quiet little companion, and this one carries a simple reminder to be kind to yourself when the day feels long. She also sits happily on a shelf as a small piece of handmade folk art, her woven skirt adding a cheerful flash of colour among books, photographs and keepsakes.
Each doll is handmade from 100% cotton thread and cibaque, a natural fibre, while her drawstring bag is made from polyester. She weighs next to nothing, so she travels well in her bag without fuss. Keep her dry and dust her gently with a soft dry cloth now and then, and wipe the bag with a damp cloth if it needs it. Kept in her bag between times, she stays tidy and easy to find. We think she makes a lovely token of encouragement to slip into a parcel or tuck alongside a card, and the printed card means she is ready to give just as she comes.
