Little St. Lucia



With St. Lucia's Day fast approaching on December 13th. I decided to make a couple dollies to celebrate the festival of lights. As many know St. Lucia was an Italian Christian martyr, killed for her faith in 304 AD. Many Scandinavian Countries celebrate this festival also known to be Winter Solstice...The shortest day of Winter. She is known as Light, hence her name Lucia. I will share more about her on December 13th while my little Freckles will dress up as her on that day!




Each St. Lucia has been hand painted with love and each a bit different in character.
 I will be selling two of these girlies since I had promised Freckles I would make her one too!
 

Be sure to check them out for sale as well
 as my other Dottie Pog Dollies on my
 Etsy!

  2. What sweet Lucia’s Dollies. Have you ever been to Poulsbo when St. Lucia comes in on a boat with her candles reflecting on the bay? It is beautiful xoxo Clarice
