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

Will put a smile on your face!”

These sweet angels are lovely! I will be putting them on Christmas gifts for my Mama and sisters instead of bows. A treasure that will go on the tree for future years. Thank you for sharing your talents!
