  1. What a fabulous collection! I didn't have access to many paper dolls when I was growing up so I made my own. I drew each one and then drew their outfits. I spent hours playing with them. I'm glad I had an imagination and was able to do that.
    I drew and painted a lot when I was growing up, but then my whole family did that. Thank you for sharing. They are all so cute.

    Christmas blessings,
    Sandi

    1. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment, Sandi. I used to draw clothes too. (I think you can see some of them in that first picture with Sherrie.) It's so important to foster imagination and creativity during childhood, and it sounds like you had an ideal one.

  2. Cleared out my mom's house last summer and found some of my paper dolls and some of hers. One of mine actually has a little hair wig. So cute. I love your collection.

    1. Thank you! I'm so glad you found your childhood paperdolls! You'll have to share some pictures. I do have a girl scout paperdoll that has real hair. (as in not paper.) I don't think I have her pictured here, yet. I need to get the rest of my dolls photo'd/scanned and up on this page soon.
