I love anything that is customized to me or my family. Bringing some personality into artwork or things for your home makes such a difference. I am in LOVE with the Little Rosa Shop, and all her awesome custom family portraits using little peg dolls!

Paula is so incredibly sweet to work with, and I was so excited when she sent me this GORGEOUS portrait of my little family!

I very recently went through a divorce, and so my family dynamic has changed. This sweet little representation of my new family means so much to me. I love how she captured our personalities! My son Ruben HAS to wear his button down shirts open. And Harrison loves when I dress him up in sweaters and collars, because I’m always so excited about it. The dress Paula painted for me is DEFINITELY something I would wear {Maybe she should start fashion designing as well? =) } She even got a few of my new highlights in my hair. I just love it!

My Grandma actually had a peg doll piece similar to this, with my grandparents, my mom, and all of her 9 siblings. When I first opened this it just brought me back, and I love having my own little one.

I’ve already had friends give me compliments. It’s such an amazing piece of personalized artwork. I know I will cherish it for many, many years. Being a single mom isn’t always easy, but it’s worth it, and thats exactly what this piece means to me. Thank you so much, Little Rosa Shop! Be sure to check out her Etsy site. These would make the perfect Christmas gift for that hard to buy for family.
