I have been to Replacements numerous times. The last time I was there, they had new owners, and it was during the recession. So they didnÂ’t have a lot of inventory. Maybe itÂ’s time to drive back there. I love the Lladros especially the ballerinas. My mother gave my sister-in-law a gorgeous one that I loved. I studied ballet for over 14 years until college. My mother danced professionally in Chicago before she was married. I just kept growing, and by the time I was in High School I was 5Â’ 8” much too tall .....but still danced. Anyway, I have a Lladro collection but no ballerina😟. Maybe, I should drive back to Greensboro and take a look. Thx for the challenge and reminding me about Replacements....
I am on their lists for two different China patterns as well as two different sterling patterns...

Absolutely lovely, the story and the card! I have a Lladro from when we were able to go to Spain. I used to love going to the ballet. It's what I picture when I have to go through long tests in MRI lol! I envision much of Swan Lake, including lighting and costume changes Beautiful card!
I loved reading your story!!!! My daughter LOVES to dance but she is a tall girl at 5' 9" and never quite in step with her peers. I think it might be because she is tall and struggles to match their timing. Your card is gorgeous! Your ballerina is so elegant!
