Christmas 2021 Dolls Part 5 of 5

The last three Christmas dolls and the last three Christmas cards I received at the time this post was written are shown above.

I received two five-piece, hand-painted, Russian nesting doll sets. These were gifts that I asked two people to buy when they asked me what I wanted. My doll friend, Debra R. buys me the Hallmark Keepsake Barbie ornament each year, which is included in this post.

These are two sets of five handpainted, handmade nesting dolls with Afrocentric painted-on clothing. 

The nesting dolls have painted faces and painted long wavy hair. They range in size from 1 inch to 5 inches. 

The First Set

This set was a gift from my daughter. Their painted-on headbands match their painted-on clothing.

This is the back of the first set of nesting dolls, also known as 
Matryoshka dolls. They have painted black wavy hair.

The Second Set

The second set of nesting dolls was a gift from my friend, Debra R. These dolls have painted-on headdresses that match their yellow Afrocentric clothing.

This set also has painted-on black hair.

2021 Hallmark Keepsake Barbie ornament 

7th in the Holiday Barbie Ornament Series, the 2021 Holiday Barbie ornament is 4.6 inches tall, made of plastic, and is a mini version of the 2021 Holiday Barbie. 

Dressed in a silver gown with a sculpted and painted bodice, fabric and tulle skirt, this Barbie ornament has black molded braids and painted baby hair. This is the first Holiday Barbie ornament with baby hair and sculpted braids.

This close-up illustrates the details of the hair and face.

I think the ornament looks better than the actual doll, but I usually have an issue with dolls with painted teeth that look like an overbite or that the teeth are resting on the lower lip.

This concludes the separate posts for the dolls I received for Christmas 2021. I had a very good dolly  Christmas.
