| Our eyes met across the crowded aisle, and she seemed to be beckoning me....I ignored her for as long as I could, but seeing as how she was pretty much the first thing that you saw when you walked into this particular antique mall...well, I couldn't get her out of my mind. She "spoke" to me like no stuffed toy ever has before, and I will covet her forever. |

| Her name, appropriately, is Swani and she's a vintage Gund. |

| I'm telling you, they just don't make things the way they used to folks! The attention to detail on this swan is amazing to me, not to mention the colors! Muted and wonderful, except for her beak and feet which are a vivid orange... |

| Her close up! Trust me, she looks so much happier in my studio than she was in the shop....her tag said "needs a new home". It was serendipity..... |

She is so sweet and beautiful. I know she will be so happy in her new home!!
I have things "speak" to me all the time too - she probably would have spoke to me as well...adorable!
Because she is glancing upward, I LOVE HER, too.
There is something about a sideway or upward glance that shouts vintage to me.
