Too much joy for one doll to hold, Happy needs another doll to show her joy!

Dolls are 6" and 3", and are proudly showing their happy hearts.  They are painted in gold paint with an ivory crackle overlay.  Each wears a beaded copper wire diadem accented with glass leaf beads and Swarovski crystal and enamel flowers.

The Happy dolls are so in love, they feel like they can fly.  Their gold filigree wings are held on by Swarovski crystal pins.  Eyes are made from glass cats-eye beads.

They sit in a glass and bronze setting strewn with hydrangeas because hydrangeas grow in abundance where they are from!

Media: Crackle spray paint, vinyl, glass cats-eye beads, vintage and glass beads, resin beads, Swarovski crystal and enamel flowers, Swarovsk crystal pins, gold filligree, acrylic paint, copper wire.
