“Enchanting”

This wonderful heart is just breathtaking, for any time of year. I sent it to MYSELF, as I am a widow and felt sure my husband would want me to have it. ;-) Im so glad I did! It is hanging on my office wall, and I cant stop looking at it. The craftsmanship is superb. One small comment: it is smaller than I had anticipated, but thats fine. It is delicate, beautifully made, and perfect.

“Heart Shape Makes it Perfect for Valentines Day”

Since becoming a customer at Novica, I have become a fan of the charming Guatemalan Worry Dolls. So imagine how happy I was to discover that they are being crafted into wreaths by artisan Elias Garc?a. I immediately ordered this one and it hangs beside our front door to commemorate St. Valentines Day in February and love anytime. The bright, cheerful colors and the solemn little faces on this piece assure that I wont have a worry in the world this year!

“Well Made and Colorful”

I ve visited Guatemala a couple of times and now that I live in an apartment with a protected front door, I could finally get this. It is extremely well made and so colorful. It brings back fond memories and celebrates the Guatemalan people. I can occasionally share any troubles with it too. :)

“This worry doll wreath will cheer me up!”

This worry doll wreath is very well made. And when I received it, it was very carefully wrapped so it was in great condition. I have some physical problems so the wreath will cheer me up whenever I look at it! Thankyou Elias!

Cheerful and well-made! Hanging up on my office wall
