A perfect gift to share with a friend you love.

I have ordered a number of worry dolls from the Lopez Garcia Family and have found that they make the cutest, most individual looking worry dolls I have ever seen. These adorable "Love and Hope" doll pairs are so sweet. I gave one pair to a dear friend of mine and he loved them, as do I. A nice way to share some love and hope with someone.

A wonderfully made fantastic piece!

I absolutely adore this and the price seems incredibly low considering how beautifully high quality it is! This amazingly lovely little purse lives in my bag daily and the gift wrapping included a fabulous extra "worry doll" which I also utilize. Thanks to Novica and thank you so very much to the Lopez Garcia Family for making this incredible piece!!
