I was going to blog about my dolls leaving their shoes out but instead I had a nice surprise myself....so thought I'd write about that instead. The Three Kings came to me early!!! Brendan and his girlfriend Virginia brought me the cutest present, it is a little muñeca made of foam sheeting and represents me and my five dogs!!! She is a little smaller than I am at about 12 inches tall and is wearing an exact copy of an outfit I wore to a party back in the summer, even down to the necklace, watch and earrings....even her hair is like mine!! As for the little dogs, they are so cute! Each one is wearing the exact colour collar of the dog that he/she represents and each has a little name tag attached to their collar! I'm absolutely delighted with it!
She's made by a lady here in Estepa who also has a page on Facebook if anyone is interested in her work!

What a fantastic doll you make S!!!!!!!!!! You and the dogs look fantastic - what a really super and thoughtful gift...you are indeed one lucky girl :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Ronny! I certainly make a much nicer doll than in real life! I was really very pleased with her, she's so detailed....a very talented artist me thinks!
DeleteWhat fun! You do make a good doll.
ReplyDeleteThank you Anna! Glad you think so...although my arms aren't quite as skinny as these ones! ;)
DeleteWhat a fantastic present Sharon and you are looking so good!! I love that the five dogs have been included what a thoughtful present and you did not even have to leave your shoes out!!
ReplyDeleteJust thought If you don't make it over to the next Chat n Snap you can send the mini sharon and I'll send you photo's of her cruising round the sales tables!!! :)
DeleteIt's true, I didn't even have to leave out my shoes....or a carrot or two for the camels who bring the Kings!
DeleteLOL, that is a very good idea on the Chat n Snap, but I hope it won't be necessary and that I'll be able to come over myself!!
What a magnificent and thoughtful present. You must be 'over the moon' with it! Lucky, lucky you. Bet that made your day!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kendal, and yes, I was really really pleased with it! Virginia, Brendan's girlfriend, had some made for her parents and sister last year and I admired how cute and detailed they were, so it was really great to receive one of my own.....as I'd also been admiring them on Facebook. A lot of thought went into getting it for me! And yes, really did make my day!
DeleteA great surprise and imaginative gift you look great and the dogs are so cute indeed!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lorraine! I admit that I was 'dead chuffed' when I saw it!!! And she has the dogs down to a 'T'!
DeleteThat is so cute! And so well done... I love the dogs, and the little details right down to the watch! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynn! Isn't it well done! I was so impressed with the details and all from a rather blurry photo apparently!!!!
