Nastenka doesn't look like as Nastenka from Morozko (or Father Frost, Russian fairy-tale movie, very popular in Bohemia), but the costume is almost identical. It differs in the sarafan pattern and added accesoires - a necklace, earrings and a wrap. Actually, I customized her just for kicks. When I found this cheap, almost bald doll in a second-hand shop, my friend told me that I could'nt make anything from her, she was so ugly (the doll, not my friend). Now she look a bit conceitedly, but more bearable. I added joints to her knees, wrists and elbows and rerooted her with untangled, dyed nylon rope. I wanted brown hair, but who could know, what would look like the pretty brown nylon after drying...
