Hand-Loomed Cotton Worry Doll Wreath From Guatemala, "Thank You God"
These adorable dolls are here to help you stay grateful and worry-free. Artisan Elias Garcia arranges them in a circular frame covered with colorful hand-loomed fabric and finished with a wooden sign reading "Thank You God". Each worry doll is handmade by Elias's sister, Aura, and she dresses each one in a unique handwoven dress. Quitapenas or "worry dolls" represent Ixmucane, a princess who was gifted with infinite wisdom. Children are instructed to confide all of their worries to their quitapenas and then place them underneath their pillow at night. The dolls will impart their wisdom to them while they sleep and in the morning they'll wake up knowing what to do.

"A heart of worry dolls!"
I have been a Hugh fan of worry dolls since childhood. This wreath is a great way to display and enjoy them! People ask about it often and many end up buying themselves - or to give as gifts.
