I decided to do a series of my own paper dolls. And I think I will share them here, for those of you out there that love them as well. They make a great quiet activity for a little girl who must occupy herself during church or in a waiting room. Being quiet can be pretty difficult sometimes.
I can't wait until Birdie is old enough to play with paper dolls instead of ripping their heads off and eating their clothes.
I am sending Lydia to my niece with a box of crayons and a pair of child safe scissors.
You will need some good white card stock. I like to copy my dolls off so that they are about four inches tall.
I plan to post a doll every month, but don't hold me to it. Things are a little ify around here lately.
i love this! and can't wait to see your next doll!

I adore paper dolls! I love yours! Can't wait to see the next one! I used to have books upon books of paper dolls and me and sister would organize their outfits and let them go on dates, hehe:) Are we allowed to copy these? I am helping my friend at church with her grandchildren and I know her two granddaughters would love these. Might make their day since they are transitioning from a few states away to live with her. Hope you are having a great week!!!

I loved paper dolls, too. I especially loved making them. That's what made me want to be a fashion designer.
ReplyDeleteYears later I was given a box of paper dolls created by my birth grandmother when she was a young girl. She was a fashion designer. Fabulous.
Your daughter will love these... in time!
