Matryoshka!


These are super lovely Matryoshka dolls I bought from a group of very friendly and talented people that came from Belarus (so far away!) to present us with an amazing performance of their folk dance. Their costumes were so very elaborated and gorgeous! They even played the music by themselves, I specially loved the  xylophones. Their dancing was great as well, so vigorous and cheerful! One could find him/herself  clapping their hands throughout the whole show, either applauding the group, or just accompaning their music, for just how enchanting they were. I loved it! 


During the breaks and after they finished their performance, they were selling handmade traditional items, everything was so cute! In these pictures you can see how colorful and detailed they were. Here you can see two Matryoshka dolls, two keychains and one cellphone strap. When you open the Matryoshka dolls, you find a smaller one inside and so on, until you have five dolls, and the last one is so tiny and adorable! I'll make sure to be extra careful with it, so I won't ever lose my baby doll ♥

Ah I remember you showing me these! They're so cute, I love these dolls! When I was little my dad had a set I was obsessed with. Thank you so much for presenting me with one as well, dear <3 you're so kind to share this! It sounds like a very fun event, as well.
