Bashful is a fictional character from Disney's 1937 animated feature film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. He is one of the seven dwarfs and his name is based on his shy and coy demeanor other than his self-conscious personality. The romantic of the group, Bashful is prone to blushing and hiding behind his beard when he becomes the center of attention whenever if he feels embarrassed or receives praise. He is shown to be completely smitten with Snow White, describing her as an "angel." Bashful lives in a cottage in the forest (presumably in Germany) with his six other brothers and works with them in a jewel mine that is "over the seven jeweled hills beyond the seventh fall" where he works from whatever time in the morning to 5 P.M. every day mining gemstones and presumably other riches. His most common mining tool is a pickaxe, which he uses to unearth gemstones.
