Art Dolls & Their little Stories

This is a swap for handcrafted little art dolls. Make an art doll for you partner from any material you want to work with – felt, wool, fabric, cardboard, clay. Decorate her with a bunch of embellishments. Sew her a velvet dress. Adorn her with some vintage jewellery. Knot her hair from a wild choice of ribbons, threads and yarns. Trim her with beads and buttons. Give her an adorable face. Do whatever you like, but ensoul her!

Give your doll a name and tell her story in a wee letter. Introduce her and tell your partner who she is, where she comes from and what she likes.
