Alright, pictures!

I found a few shots of a previous craft to tide you over until I get a functioning camera. You are overjoyed, I'm sure!

Nostalgia-induced foray into paper dolls loosely based on the japanese UFO catcher dolls. Designs are original characters from a friend's webcomic. Alas, two years later they are still naked. The square-bodied boys don't even have hair yet!



Chitboard and cardstock with scrapbooking grommets to make their little arms and legs flail around.


The hair has some dimension (oooooh) with the bangs and front bits glued on top of the head and the remaining hair glued to the back of the head.


I'm debating on making little cloth clothing for them or convoluted origami paper clothes. The paper clothes present the problem of, well, getting the outfits on and off without resorting to tabs and making them all naked in the back!

They all have foam and embroidery strap zori sandals (the girls with have tropical drink umbrellas, of course!), and I experimented with making a cloth kimono.

I call it...mini-mono! Held together with fabric glue.
