August Outfit of the Month 2013




Hallo!

Our eighth stop this year will be to India!

A Sari is a strip of unstitched cloth, worn by women, ranging from four to nine yards in length that is draped over the body in various styles which is native to the Indian Subcontinent.  There are more than 80 recorded ways to wear a sari.  The most  common style is for the sari to be wrapped around the waist, with the loose end of the drape to be worn over the shoulder, baring the midriff.  However, the sari can be draped in several different styles, though some styles do require a sari of a particular length or form. - Wikipedia



Let's celebrate the BOYS this month!  My experience says that boys love paper dolls too!  Plus, every girl doll needs a brother/prince/daddy/knight in shining armor!  So if you've been thinking about getting a boy doll with some fun outfits this is the time!
Boy dolls can be found under any of the doll package options, just go to "ordering instructions" and scroll down to see all of the boy doll options!
All BOY dolls and accessories are 25% off this month!  Just type "BOYS2013" at check out.




New Outfits Coming Soon!
I had a lot of drawing time while the girls at Paper Doll Camp were busy creating their dolls.  I have new outfit lines for both girls and boys coming your way!  I hope to have them all edited and in the shop by September. 




July Outfit of the Month 2013







Howdy!

For our seventh stop this year, we visit the Western United States and meet:

The All American

Cowgirl!


“Cowboys have certainly gotten their due in movies and fiction over the years, but what about the cowgirl? As early as the 19th century, pioneering women learned their way around a lasso and horse on the American frontier."- Flavorwire.com





Paper Doll Camps so far have been a blast!  It's been so fun getting to know so many creative, sweet girls!  We still have two weeks left here in Idaho and a few spots left in each week!  If you'd like to sign up, go HERE.

June 2013 Outfit of the Month



Aloha!

Our sixth stop this year will be to Hawaii!
"Hula dancing is the traditional art of movement, smooth bodily gestures and vocals.  You may notice that Hula Dancing seems to have an incredibly smooth "flow" and the movements are extremely fluid.  These movements are said to actually tell a story or represent movements of nature such as trees blowing in the wind or fish swimming smoothly in the ocean."
- Hula Dance HQ

A handful of friends and family have moved to Hawaii in the past few years.  I must say, it looks like a wonderful place to be.  Someday, we'll make the trip!  Have you been?  Do you hula? :)

Next Monday is the first day of the first Paper Doll Day Camp series!  I bought all of the supplies last night.  We are ready with lots of quality paper, pens, watercolor pencils, treats, etc.!  It is going to be such a blast!
There are still spots open in all of slots so if you've been thinking this would be fun for a daughter, grand daughter etc.  Just go HERE to sign up!


May Outfit of the Month. Celebrating Mexico




A bit late this month, I apologize.  I wanted to get this out in time for Cinco de Mayo.  I guess we'll just have to have another celebration today!

Our fifth stop this year will be to Mexico!
In the Jalisco region of Mexico, the presence of native Indian, Spanish and Moorish traditions resulted in a rich, mixed performance culture typified by the hallmark folklorico dresses worn by women dancers, wide-brimmed hats for men and merry mariachi bands.

Do you celebrate Cinco de Mayo?  Do you have any of these cultures in your heritage?

April Outfit of the Month and Deals



This photo shoot made me hungry for the best kind of food - Italian.

Our fourth stop this year will be to Southern Italy!

This is a traditional outfit perfect for dancing the Tarentelle.  The Tarentelle is a dance that involves holding hands and dancing in a circle. The music gets faster and faster as the song goes on.
It is considered unlucky to dance the Tarantella alone so it is often danced by couples or by two women.  - Ottowaitalians.com
I think we should all have some spaghetti with meatballs tonight to celebrate this month's outfit.  What do you say?!
