Handmade Look a likes


My beautiful girls, well actually one is meant to be me and the other my very talented friend Chris who made these for me.  It was my 4oth birthday and she spent days and weeks and hours making us.  She is the one with the red hair, even though her hair isn't really red its more an auburn, and I'm the long haired blonde.  I haven't had long hair for an eon now.  She has put freckles on my nose and made herself with slightly darker skin, she's quite olive skinned and I am the fairer one.  We have sexy pantaloons on and we even have tatoo's something we always wanted to get but never would.  I have a tulip on my wrist, hidden just under the sleeve and a heart on my bottom.  Chris has a heart and a rose on her bottom. I was amazed and so touched when I opened this present.  To think that someone would spend so much time making something so special for me, my love language is quality time so this was the very most special thing anyone could give me.

  6. Kim, I love personal gift that are made and given from the heart. There is nothing better. Your friend must think you are a very special person to put in the effort she did and personalize them with tattoo and all. They are really beautiful thanks for showing them to us.

  9. what a very special gift this is that your friend made for you. I know you must cherish it greatly. that's so funny that she put on the tatoos that you each have wanted.
    one time i made a doll for my mom and, without knowing it, i had apparently made her look just like my mom's best friend from childhood. she loved it all the more.
