Spirit Dolls

My friend Sheryl gave me the inspiration for these dolls. My friends are getting married this Saturday and when they've been together forever it's hard to buy the perfect gift.
So, 2 dolls representing the couple (naturally) bound together with 'tools' to help them through the rest of their lives...a chinese coin for wealth, a key to unlock their deepest desires, a clock to let them remember that life is short, a bottle of champagne and 2 glasses to celebrate their marriage and a rake and a flower to help them tend their garden...and a lock to ensure that their love is safely locked with them.
Of course, the cynical among us would probably have a completely different interpretation.....but that's up to them.
Personally I think it's a better gift than another toaster....

Brilliant - and touching. A truly personal gift. Certainly beats a toaster.
You've not been wasting time, for sure.
