      Very Mardi Gras in theme actually- especially with the donkey, and fitting for this time of year too! Both are very playful, childlike and colourful like little carnival animals, especially the donkey :P

      Thank you six-0-one for the always superb compliments, yes he's an adorable Trifari elephant & an oft repeated design (also in silvertone), I always check the CW search box to be sure it was not a previous post & very surprised it hadn't been. Glad you also liked the Capri donkey it's so rare & cute, think the eyelashes give it personality

      Absolutely true Lauren, they have a childlike look that is really sweet and I can see this donkey as a pinata! Maybe my love for Mardi Gras-Brazilian Carnaval time is showing here, there is nothing like seeing the creative animal floats on parade, only a few months away. Thank you for your delightful comment on this pair

      It's definitely Mexican style Phil esp with tomorrow being the Day of the Dead in Mexico, ole! Thank you for your fabulous comment, I am glad these animals are not somber political types, it is a rather nerve wracking time here with the uncertainty of voting

      Thanks Karen for your wonderful praise for my two lil cuties, yes they are too nice for the campaign trail - my husband votes and stays up all nite to see the outcome, I abstain (always, not a political person, plus they put your name on civic duty lists & it is very annoying) and usually turn in early with a Vera dvd, something about watching her driving along the coastal plains of Northumberland is very relaxing :)
