Description
This self-affirmation worry doll is a tiny figure wrapped in brightly coloured cotton thread, made to carry a cheerful message about yourself. Each doll is handmade in Guatemala from cotton thread, tissue paper and a natural fibre called cibaque, with a small face, dark hair, arms held out wide and its lower half wrapped in contrasting colours. It stands about 3.5cm tall, measures 2.5cm across and is just 0.5cm deep, small enough to sit in the palm of your hand. There are six affirmations in this range: I'm Beautiful, I'm Capable, I'm Fearless, I'm Grateful, I'm Loved and I'm Strong. This line is assorted, so we send one design chosen at random from the six and cannot promise a particular affirmation or colour.
Because it is so small, this worry doll sits happily on a bedside table, a desk, a windowsill or a shelf where you will see it each day, and it tucks as easily into a pencil case, a pocket or a purse. Each doll comes on a bright printed card that carries its affirmation in bold letters, together with the line "daily affirmations for a better life", so it is ready to hand over as a small, thoughtful present. It is a gentle way to share a kind word with someone, or to keep one close for yourself.
The cotton thread wrapping gives each doll its colour and texture, and because every one is made by hand, small variations in the way the thread lies are part of its handmade character. It is a delicate piece, so keep it dry and away from direct sunlight to help the colours last, and brush away any dust gently with a soft dry cloth. Slip one into a card or a small gift bag for someone who could do with a lift, or keep it on your desk as a daily nudge to say its words out loud.
