Today I thought I’d take a little break from the 2011 Christmas gift guide (I’ll be back with more from tomorrow).  And besides I couldn’t wait to share these hand made soft toy cuties from Portugal.  I came across Ludovico last week and it was love at first sight.  Isn’t he just the cutest elephant soft toy ever?  And his friends Ernesto and Palmira aren’t far behind in the cuteness stakes.  It’s not just their adorable looks that have me smitten, but also their outfits… Ludovico’s sweet braces and shorts, Palmira’s ensemble of polka dots and stripes and Ernesto’s gorgeous lacy collar and trendy skinny trousers.  You can’t help but fall for these hand made cuties.  They’re made by Pink NouNou who offer some gorgeous hand made dolls too.  So tempting…
