Cotton worry dolls, 'Love and Hope' (pair)
By Marnie
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.

Great Gifts!
I LOVE these little worry dolls! They are great as a decoration on a gift or just to give a friend who is going through a hard time. My granddaughters sleep with one under their pillows, to take their worries away.
