Nesting Doll for Spring
A Nesting Doll with Daffodils is the perfect Spring-time decoration and/or gift!
A Russian artist captured the lovely light-hearted nature of Spring on this 5 piece sky blue and lavender matryoshka, featuring a basket of narcissus (daffodils) mixed with pretty little blue flowers that seem to float out of the basket and all around the doll.
"Sunny, yellow daffodils are a wonderful sign that spring has arrived!" (Old Farmers Almanac)Daffodils symbolize new beginnings, so besides Spring-time, they are wonderful for new moms (as are all nesting dolls because of their connection with maternity) and are also great for saying "congratulations" on a new venture.
Nesting doll collectors usually have a lot of dolls with painted flowers on them, because this is the most common theme in matryoshka doll art, originating with the traditional red & yellow Red Roses Matryoshka doll.
