About this Item
Diminutive worry dolls in handwoven apparel stand shoulder to shoulder on a cheerful and unique wreath. Elias Garcia links two circles to suggest the solidarity of different families, communities and cultures. The dolls are crafted by his sister of the Lopez Garcia family. Centered by a wooden plaque reading "Friends Forever," this charming design hangs from a golden cord.
According to Maya legend, the sun god gave princess Ixmucane the gift of solving people's problems. With time, people started making dolls in Ixmucane's honor and they would tell her their woes, hoping she would solve them through the dolls. Many people whisper to the dolls, then place them under their pillows at night, hoping that the doll will provide a solution as they sleep.

“A Beautiful Gift for a Cherished Friend”
I have a Guardian Angel friend who is always there for me, for her husband, her family, her church .... She is pure goodness and is unstoppable. This was perfect to give her. I would keep these in stock ... and do keep a couple on hand, because of the cultural value that sets it aside from average gifts, the beauty and sweetness of the wreath, and the quality. I love it, and I love NOVICA and all Elias does. Even through rough times of my own, these bring joy. Thank you for never disappointing!
