The String Doll Gang is a collection of mummy-style toys made of string and with meaning to go with each specific character sold. I know a few who own a couple of them and I hope someday I will be able to have a collection of these fun dolls. If you’re looking for a fun [...]
It may be cliché to write a post of gratitude on Thanksgiving, but it is also important I think to always be thankful for the blessings in our lives. Life may not always be easy, but there are always blessings to be found.
