Noodee Aisiri's three "Toy Theatres" are about as charming and fun as you can get. They feature a village scene, a woodland scene and an underwater scene. All with articulated dolls that dance and swim. Her display also included beautiful little paintings that were the studies for her characters, as well as an animated film of her theaters come to life.

Congrats to all! You are ALL ready for the big time. Julie and I were looking all over Facebook for that animation of Noodee's. Really, really stepping it up and standing out! Way cool!
