Esmeralda and Demelza

While out today I popped into a couple of charity shops and tucked into a box right at the back on the shelf amongst a variety of other toys and things were these two wonderful handmade dolls.  Well as soon as I saw them I realised the possibilities and they had to come home with me.  Of course that means I have to add at least another two to my 're-homing' box.  

Named after a couple of hens I had as a teenager....meet Esmeralda and Demelza!

So much detail has gone into making them.

I think they are going to be right characters...

Oh dear it looks like Esmeralda has lost her umbrella!
