Bought these doll mothers with children to give to a neighbor. She had once said she loved the little doll used as a package decoration that came with Novica wrapping. We both had our first children at the same time. They are now adults. So this set appealed to me as a gift related to our friendship. Very colorful and sweet. Thank you.

Adorning my fireplace mantel, this Beautiful Enchanting Mask became the focal point of collaged carved wood pieces also purchased from NOVICA. Wish I could Attache a photo to show how it all looks!

I purchased this box as a sweet gift for my 18-year old for Valentines Day. It arrived in plenty of time, and was incredibly beautiful. I was a little apprehensive just because of the medium used, but since I have had such lovely experiences with Novica in the past, I went ahead and purchased it. I had no idea that papier mache could come out so beautifully. The quality of the workmanship was beyond what I was hoping for. It was absolutely meticulously made and packaged beautifully as well. Thanks so much!
