DOLLS FROM UGANDA, SOUTH AFRICA, JORDAN and GERMANY

HAPPY NEW YEAR  to you all!
Today I am listing dolls from UGANDA, SOUTH AFRICA, JORDAN and GERMANY.
For more pictures and more information about the dolls, please see the website.

I particularly like the Ndebele doll from South Africa (but I like them all!).  The first three lots are all hand made dolls, and the little doll from the Rhine region of Germany is quite a character.

More dolls to come (time permitting).

MY WALK JUST AFTER CHRISTMAS.
We had an eight and a half mile walk up to the BACK MIXEN MOUNTAIN in Mid Wales.  It was a dry but bitterly cold day with the temperature being just one degree centigrade.  The ground was very boggy.
The path going up for about a mile and a half, was extremely rough (as can be seen on the first photo) but as always, it was well worth the effort when we got to the top!

Thank you Ann. The South African dolls are among my favourites. I just love all the intricate beadwork.
