A mermaid! Xmas Grin My dd was born without a nerve on one side of her face & has a lop-sided smile, so I made the doll to match.

She’s gorgeous! Aren’t you clever?! Your daughter’s a lucky girl not just for the lovely dolly but for having such a thoughtful mummy

That doll is gorgeous ( just like your dd I expect!). Well done, that's so clever of you. She will treasure it forever!

That really is such a wonderful gift. I wish I was more crafty or artistic so I could produce a special gift like this for my DC.

BollockingBaubles · 24/12/2018 21:49

Beaitiful.

I have Bells Palsy and have a lopsided smile and would have loved this to bits when I was a child.

Well done x

Absolutely beautiful, I bet your daughter is just as gorgeous. You've done an incredible job, what a lovely Mummy.

Xmasfairy you are both very talented and so very kind. I can just imagine how much time, effort and love you put into making this absolutely beautiful mermaid. It is a very special gift and the love you have for your gorgeous daughter shines through her eyes.

I know your daughter will be delighted with her and I hope they both grow very very old together. Please let us know what your daughter decides to call her.

Be proud of yourself - you are a lovely mum. X

Just for the record I was ABOUT to ask how you curled the hair!!!! Thanks for answering :). The doll is beautiful.

FiveShelties · 25/12/2018 04:07

That is amazing. You are so cleve r. Your daughter will treasure that. Merry Christmas😀

jessstan2 · 25/12/2018 04:23

Oh it's lovely. You are very clever, well done. I'm sure your daughter will love it.

As an aside and I know it's not that import but I do hope your daughter can have something done - like transtympanic needling of the facial nerve - when she gets older. It's amazing what can be done nowadays and in a few years there will be more.

You're a lovely mum. Have a great Christmas.

Igmum · 25/12/2018 04:23
