My First Waldorf Doll
When I was pregnant with my son Dante, I started making a Waldorf Doll with a few other mothers.
In the beginning was very engaged, but as we moved towards the construction of the actual body, hair and etc. I let my project on the side.
Later, talking to a friend of mine, who was trained in Antroposophy and Waldorf Teaching, she pointed out that the construction of a Waldorf Doll involves more than a simple act of putting pieces together, it is a spiritual journey, where each step will show you the way a person deals with things in life!
Holy C.! And I put my doll aside?!
I always thought of myself of being a non-procrastinator or non-resistance person, but I guess I still had a bit of it inside me.
I wanted to finish the doll, but never got to it.
As I finished our conversation, I searched for my doll pieces and got to work. I promised only to stop when I had done her.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, Anne!
My first Waldorf Doll and the representation of my resistance and procrastination, which will not be around anymore, because I accomplished something!
I love the way she tilts her head to the side!
She needs some special clothes and I am looking for a good source of it! If you know of any, please let me know.
