The Paper Boy

Found this amazing metal bike at Pier One today. It actually works like a real bike - the pedals move the chain which turns the back wheel!! I thought it would make a great MSD size prop, so bought one. I tried it with several of my dolls, but really liked how it worked with Maya. I rolled some newspapers and he was off to deliver them!!   I think I really should go back and get a second one so two friends can go biking together..

Doll Leaves asked me if they could post some of my photos of Maya on their Facebook page, and of course I said they could, after all he was a gift from them.   Later, they told me they had posted this photo of Maya on the bike, and that they almost immediately had over 100 people share the photo.

I can't believe you got that bike at Pier One. It's so cute and perfect for your doll:)

Yes, it's considered a "metal bike sculpture". I like that it actually works, stands by itself, and has that old-fashioned look.
