Worry Doll Pin
Small gifts are always sweet gifts! Worry dolls have become a symbol of Guatemala around world. We love pins around here and when we saw these cuties we felt inspired to make make these pins that can be used on clothing, sacred cloths, or pocket altars.
Worry dolls or Muñeca Quita-pena, are meant to help young children divert nightmares and colic while sleeping. This small doll is kept under the pillow at night to absorb the negative energies.
We love these dolls as a conversation starter and as a way to support the artisans that create them.
