Little Red Riding Hood – new hand painted art doll

August 30th, 2011

Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.

C.S. Lewis

[ …’But, grandmother, what big eyes you have!’ she said.

‘All the better to see you with, my dear.’

……..

‘Oh! but, grandmother, what a terrible big mouth you have!’

‘All the better to eat you with!’… ]

I think I’m old enough to read all of the fairy tales again.. I have one, very old favorite book by Brothers Grimm … with yellow cover and very strange illustrations… expect photos…

And Little Red Riding hood is also close to my heart. My Grandmother told me all kind of stories, especially scary ones to make me behave (the naughty step works better I think). And for the opening the Big Headed Dolls line, I’ve chosen The Girl in Red Cape.

It’s ooak art doll with big eyes, and she’s hand painted in tiniest detail –  you can read more about her HERE.

And photos:
