Description:
I have set up a few Dotee Doll swaps, but for this swap, I want us all to create your own style of Art Doll (An Art Doll is literally a handmade doll of your own design - using whichever embellishments/decoration you like working with) check out this link to see some other crafty peoples Art Dolls.... http://www.flickr.com/groups/41506416@N00/pool/ The only rules are that it must be at least 5" in length and it must be stuffed. You can use any medium to create the face, it can have ten arms and legs or a bazillion eyes, or perhaps a more traditional doll. You can embellish it head to toe in sequins, dangle beads from it's head, pretty much, anything goes, but please make a special effort! It would be nice to check our partners profile first, to see their favourite colours etc, but this is not essential, this Art Doll should primarily be of your own imagination. This is an international swap. You will make one art doll for one partner. Please make something beautiful and unique that you would love to receive yourself <3 Everyone is welcome to join, questionable swappers with lots of recent no sends will be dropped before partners are assigned. I have lots of Dotee Doll swaps running too, so please check my profile.

i make small dolls of clay, i'd quite love to join - but they aren't exactly stuffed. must these be plush dolls?

I hope we get our partners soon! I'm looking forward to making a doll based on my partner's profile.

I hope HT is o.k. She hasn't showed up to assign partners and i'm getting concerned.

I've been waiting to look at profiles too....I wonder whats going on?

Valleygirl 02/22/2008 #

word is she has been very ill. hoola-if you read this before matching partners-would you please ban me from this swap before assigning partners. I won't take it personally! I am now leaving to go out of town and won't be able to fulfill my agreement. Thanks and sorry for the trouble! vg

Hey Valleygirl, I hope your kidding about not fulfilling your agreement. Your suppose to be sending to me and I have been very much looking forward to it!

Valleygirl 02/25/2008 #

Well, I wasn't kidding that I wanted to be dropped. But partners have been automatically assigned so I am obligated to send. don't fret, I send nice packages. I just don't have a lot of appreciation for an unmanned swap-so to speak.

No worries, if you are vacationing then do it when you return.

my doll has been done for a week, but I can't find a box for it.

Denise, I have put her last freckles on and she is ready for her new home! She'll be seeing you very soon!
