Irish Charm
May luck and laughter light your days!
"We’ve had lots of requests for a piece that expresses good luck, and this piece is my response. I was inspired by young Celtic dancers, and impressed by the art form; it’s such a unique expression of that culture. Uplifting, so alive, happy… happy-go-lucky!"

Before my mother passed away, she made me promise to go to Ireland, the land of our ancestors. I had the privilege of going there last year. My wonderful neighbor bought the Irish Charm girl for me to remember my trip and my mother.

My mother has been collecting Willow Tree figurines since before I can remember. But she only bought the angels.
This was the first one she ever bought that wasn't an angel, and it was for me--the start of my collection.
Mom says she'll give me hers when she dies, so I'll have quite the collection; but this one will always be special to me.
When I have a daughter of my own, I'll give it to her.

My sister-in-law is very Irish and has red curly hair. This wonderful figurine reminds me of her.
Her husband is in the hospital with lymphoma. When he was moved from ICU to a regular room, I sent Rosie Irish Charm. She loves her and said it made her smile. There are very few things more important than a smile. Her smiles are pretty rare these days.
Thanks Susan - both for Irish Charm and for Rosie's smile.

I used to pass by Willow Tree angels while shopping, thinking, "How could anyone like something with no face?" But then a friend gave me an angel, and she grew on me.
I am a Christian who has just begun to appreciate the reality of angels in recent years. In particular, the angels of Hope, Grace, Learning, and the Irish Charm Angel have held special meaning for me. My angels are a reminder that the real angels--and Jesus--are watching over me. All my "girls" make me feel loved.

My daughter and I have been exchanging Willow Tree Angels for about three years now. My daughter is a 20-year-old African American wearing her hair in the dread hairstyle and often with the head band on the front. She and I share a very special mother and daughter bond because of the various life's experiences and a deep love and appreicaition for one another.
When I look at the Irish Charm, it looks like she and my daughter are twins. Each time I feel the Angels don't get any more special you do it again. Thanks!!! Constance

When I gave my dear friend Irish Charm as a baptism gift, she was so touched. She loves the lilting spirit of the figurine and especially her curls. My friend has curly hair and loves any figurine with curly hair. H.

I just purchased the figurine Irish Charm. Four years ago the Lord brought into our home our fourth child, a little girl, through the beauty of adoption. She was born on St. Patrick's Day. My husband is from a little town called Shamrock, and we found out about our little bi-racial angel on my birthday, March 20th. God placed her in our home to love and care for her just as He longs to have each of us in His family by adoption through faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. May God the Father richly bless everyone who reads this!

I received this Irish Charm as a Birthday gift today from my little cousin Dominick who has brought me lots of love and happiness. When he sees me he lights up like a Shamrock. So do I.He has a special place in my heart. I placed this piece in my kitchen so we could enjoy it. My kitchen is full of laughter and love.

I received this as a gift from a friend at a surprise birthday/retirement party in an Italian restaurant. Being of Irish descent, I absolutely loved it and connected to it. As I was opening the next gift, the song on the restaurant music system was Daddy's Little Girl... The song my Dad used to love to sing to his four daughters at every occasion.. He passed away over three years ago and I miss him terribly. He was full of Irish Charm. We've been to that restauant 50 times or more, and that song has never come on. It is usually Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin music..
I am certain my Dad's Irish Charm had something to do with it... Now this beautiful piece which immediately made me think of him can bring a smile to my face every day.

I have been collecting the Willow Tree figures for a number of years. Today I was at a store and turned to see "Irish Charm". I immediately purchased it and brought it home because, strange as it may seem, it reminded me of my son Michael. Michael was a beautiful young man who was married and had dreams of starting a family. He and his wife had been dancing Irish dances in a group before Irish dance became so popular in the U.S. Unfortunately Michael's life was cut short by a car jacker who murdered him. His ashes were scattered over the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland where he and his wife had spent their honeymoon. This figure will always remind me of the joy that Michael brought to us as our only child. His 27 years of living were filled with joy and when I see this charming figure I shall always be reminded of the scriptural verse that says the Lord will turn your mourning into dancing. This figure reminds me that the Lord has indeed done that for me. Thank you for this special blessing to a mother's grieving heart.

This year has been especially hard with my husband's job and financially trying to make ends meet! I collect Willow Tree Figurines and it had been awhile since I last bought one. The minute I saw this Irish Charm I had to have it! As it sits on my night stand it will serve as a reminder to me that Luck will find me everyday if I am willing to look for it and Laughter is the only cure to a struggling soul!

I am not Irish, nor am I a dancer. But this piece will bring back memories for me in years to come. I was crowned Miss Greene then Miss Butler County and both my tiaras have hearts in them. This little girl has a heart in her tiara and I love how she will always be a wonderful memory and reminder of my days as a queen.

I just picked up this one today after seeing it online. It made me think of my father who passed away two years ago. He was full Irish and it just made me smile. I have other ones that also make me think of him. The Hero one does because he was in the Army for 22 years serving his country that he loved very much. Thank you.
