Uncle Sam!!!

Mandy from "Bittersweet Folk Art", and I decided to do our own swap.

She gave me one of her " Uncle Sam"  dolls and a Primitive Star that matches his clothes!

I have never owned an "Uncle Sam" doll,
You talk about nice, I am just in love with him!!! He is totally adorable.

Doesn't he look great with my, "Americana Display"!

Mandy you have outdid yourself, I have to have the best "Uncle Sam" doll ever!!
Mandy is one talented lady, and there is an article about her and her work, in the summer issue
of "Merchantile Gatherings" magazine. You have to check that out!

I am thrilled to own one of Mandy's dolls, you have to check out her blog, everyone needs one
of her dolls, you are in for a treat!!!

Thank you so much Mandy for swapping, I love, love my doll!!! I will treasure him forever!!!
