On our recent holiday we found this sad little creature washed up on the beach. How long had she been in the sea? What adventures had she been through? Little One decided to adopt her, but she definitely needed a bit of a makeover.
It is amazing what can be done with a bit of pink fluff, some glue and an indeliable pen. And a bit of pink wool for her new outfit. Her name is Dune.
Now she is ready to meet the other little trolls, and be part of the gang. But she will always retain the marks of her adventures. (Can you see her smooth hands, feet and ears?)
And the bigger trolls. (Some of these trolls are nearly as old as me, which is why they are so wise.) I just love trolls.
Oh how fun! The sad troll found on the beach now looks happy to be part of her new family.
ReplyDeleteDune is very lucky to have been found by you!! She looks so happy :)

aww look at her now with her gorgeous pink hair. She fits right in with her new friends.
ReplyDeleteWhat a life Dune has had! Love a bit of beachcombing, especially when you find a little treasure like that. Great makeover, I'm sure she's a story or two to tell the others :)
ReplyDeleteBtw your shell knits are just amazing! x
I love the thought of the adventures she might have had! :o)
ReplyDeleteha ha ha, brilliant rescue x
ReplyDeleteHaha very cute! There is something so endearing about them :)
ReplyDeleteOh, how cute!! I remember having one with pink hair when I was young! Thank you for sharing on Sharing Saturday!
ReplyDeleteWow I haven't seen a troll for such a long time...they are a cute collection xxx
ReplyDeleteI love makeovers...lol! And what a cute reinvented troll....thanks for sharing. And thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI would never have thought of making over a sea-damaged troll, but you did such an amazing job. I have a soft spot for troll dolls too, although I don't have any, and haven't had any for years- I had one when I was little and apparently I named it Aunty Mary- sadly I don't remember my Aunty Mary, but the adults were a bit amused by the likeness, and the unfiltered honesty of children...
ReplyDeleteThose trolls were quite popular when my kids were small...I love the shell-shot as well.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet that you saved the troll and gave her a makeover! I had a collection of the troll dolls and few of the big ones, they have their own personality!
ReplyDeleteQuite the remarkable transformation! What a cute collection.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Those are awesome!!! I haven't seen those trolls in years!!! Where did you ever find them? Daisy from A Serendipitous Life
ReplyDeleteOh, what fun! I'm not into trolls particularly, but your grouping looks like you'e had fun too.
ReplyDeleteI remember when I had a troll in high school (they were all the rage then). :) I'm glad you pointed out the wear/smoothing of the features - I wouldn't have noticed that otherwise.
ReplyDeleteGosh, I haven't seen trolls in years! I have no idea what happened to all of mine, I remember when they were ALL the rage! What a cool story to go along with the pics. Thanks for stopping by my Snapshot post, too!

Sweet story. Brings back happy memories from my childhood, oh so long ago. I can remember the feel of those trolls, even the smell.
ReplyDeleteBecause everyone and everything needs a home...no matter how scary they may be. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha! So much fun!
