I have been in love with paper dolls ever since I was a little girl! I used to beg my mom for her old JCPenney catalogs, so that I could cut out the models and design my own clothes for them. I had tons of paper dolls growing up. I even had the old "Barbie Fashion Plates" that let you design and pattern your own clothes for "Barbie". I just loved creating new clothes for my models! Now that I have a little girl of my own, I was hoping to pass on my love of paper dolls to her. So, I created my own paper dolls specifically for my daughter Ruby. I plan on marketing these as a kit that I can customize for each "Mommy & Daughter" that orders them. I can easily change the hair color/ eye color/ race to suit anyone. I know these will bring many hours of joy to me and my daughter. I am hoping they do the same for many more mommys and daughters. This is my first outfit that I designed for mommy and Ruby. I have several others waiting to be colored. I will continue to post them as I finish them. I am also hoping to get this up on my Etsy page in the near future.
How fun! They look awesome!
ReplyDeleteI will be the first to order. Naomi loves dolls and dressing them. She is really into designing outfits too! I hope she doesn't outgrow them. Can you believe she is 10 & 1/2! She has already passed her love of dolls onto Gianna so if Naomi outgrows them, I'll still have some time to play too!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much ladies! It has been so much fun creating these little paper dolls for Ruby. I hope she will love them to pieces...literally! I would love to make some for my nieces Brandy! I am hoping to have the whole kit put together before Christmas. I will keep you posted!
