Grandma's have a special relationship with their Grandchildren.
Each year the grandkids come up with their "Wish List" of toys and gifts that they have seen on TV or in the stores. Grandmas are a target for these requests because everyone knows that no one has a bigger heart than grandma.
Grandmas do have big hearts and giving the best gift possible is as important to her as it is to her granddaughter. Well this year, here is a gift idea that will beat all past year gifts. This year you can give her a gift that she will treasure for the rest of her life.
Somewhere in your home is that box of childhood memories that you run across every few years. In that box you may have kept your favorite doll or toy. When you happen across that box, you take out the doll and remember the many hours enjoyment you had as a little girl playing with her. What a wonderful gift she would make for your granddaughter or even your daughter. She might even know about your doll, even though she has been lovingly stored away for years.
Think what joy she will feel everytime she handles the doll, knowing that it had been your's first and that you wante her to have it now. Think of the joy that You will have just thinking of the enjoyment she will have as she enjoys your very personal gift.
You say the doll isn't it the same shape or state of repair that it was when you played with it so many years ago. That isn't really a problem. Dolls by Diane can repair or restore that doll to her prior splendor. We can make her look like new again...or if you prefer, we can clean her up but retain some of the scars that years of play can leave. If you think that this is something you might want to do, we can check your doll out and discuss how you might want to bring her back to life.
Last year we restored a doll for a lady to give to her Granddaughter. While we were fixing the doll, she wrote a little journal for the doll like it was in the dolls own words. When the restored doll got back to her she added the journal to the box and presented it at Christmas. The Granddaughter said it was the "Bestest doll I have ever had".
