Posted - Dec 11 2013 : 04:54:24 AM Hi Girls, I saw this idea somewhere and tho't you girls might like it!
PARTNERS: Beth Jones~~ptroupe Beth Jones~~Dapple Grey Lady fille de ferme~~Denise Ann Killarney~~Dirtduchess
First to see photos, Google: Ribbon Dolls
The dolls have paper doll like faces and bodies and then all sorts of ribbons make the skirt, long and flowing. Then on the back some have wings, fairy wings, or butterfly like wings. They have a hanger so you can hang and enjoy all year long. The ribbons that hang are all different kinds, not just all blue or not just all white, they are all sorts of ribbons, making the doll very beautiful. Even pieces of lace can be used. They are at least 12 inches long, even longer for some. The ribbons flow down...
With the winter doldrums setting in, I tho't this might be fun to make after the holidays.
Rules: 1. This is a winter Angel ribbon doll 2. Must have wings and a hanger 3. Must have at least 3 different colors or kinds of ribbon and lace. 4. Please do your best work...farmgirls are the best!
Sign up ends January 3rd Mail out by January 23st
Hint: Ribbons are usually on sale now and right after the holidays. Think silver, gold, all the pretty ribbons they have out now!!
You can never be to kind! |
