New Petite Poupee dolls from Caya's Creations

I have been an admire of Caya's beautiful bears for some time now, but recently she has branched out into the most beautiful folk dolls.

Petite Poupees measure only 6 inches high and are hand drawn with watercolour pencils and have beautiful Tibetan lambswool hair.

I find them enchantin, like illustrations come to life.
