I saw this beauty and immediately thought of Scandinavian Pieces. She looks to me to be a Dala horse (spelling on that one) but is made in Brazil.
She is very international. She told me her name was Drama Dala. Yes, that is what she told me. Scandi, I know you have a blue and a red (?) horsey...do you need this lovely?

cute :)
Scandi, market is next week. Going to put some last minute detail together this afternoon. Some friends have volunteered to keep me company, which should be really fun. CW has sent me some swag to hand out so I can "spread the good word" to some new folk. I plan on taking photos and running a bit of a diary just for fun.
Happy to send Drama Dala. She is teaching my 8 year old some princess moves that I'd rather she didn't know ; ))
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Scandi, my only concern with shipping is that Drama will eat all your chocolate!!
Cute but not scary enough for me. LOL
Kathycat you made me laugh so hard at the office...
