I've always loved little things, especially little animals. A few years back, my good friend Christina gave me a worry doll--a tiny, hand-crafted, colorful doll from Guatemala. Children who are having a hard time sleeping because of their worries place the tiny doll under their pillows before going to sleep. According to folklore, the doll worries instead of the child, allowing the child to sleep peacefully.
Have a friend who has an upcoming big day, performance, presentation or test? For a modern twist on the Guatemalan tradition, gift a tiny little crochet animal from SuAmi and a good luck note, like this one from Benchpressed.
OMG, how adorable! I love little things too, I thought my one inch teddy bear was tiny but these are amazing, must have excellent eyesight to make them. Another sweet gift idea.
