Dolls In National Costume
Did your aunties ever bring you back dolls in national
costume from their foreign holidays? That's
how I acquired these - many, many moons ago!
The dark haired one is from Ireland, I think - I'm going to
call her Colleen.
Not sure where the other one is from ... Scandinavia,
perhaps. I'm sure someone out there will let me know. I'm going to call her Ingrid. She is a really well made doll - her legs and
arms move and her hair is lovely.
I used to have a collection (well, about six, including Wales and Scotland) - my aunties
didn't venture too far!
And, yes, before you ask ......... they are both wearing
knickers ........ the dolls that is, not the aunties (although I'm sure they
did too)!
Love, Liz
