Door Stop Dolls

 I was just hit with a memory from the time when doorstop dolls were popular.  They were a homemade craft and they were meant to sit on the floor in front of a door in order to hold it open.  I think it was really as much about their decorative appeal as it was about their function in holding doors open.  Somewhere I’m sure I have a picture of the one that I had when I was young because I still had it when I was teenager and liked to photograph things. Today it suddenly made an appearance as an image in my head.
