Description

Artist Emily Martin updates this very old craft with groovy retro prints, combat boots and a fuzzy kitty hat. These three lovelies, Charlotte, Gretchen and Stella, come permanently dressed in your basic under garments, knee-high stockings and patent leather shoes. The dress-up fun comes from the interchangeable and oh-so-stylish wardrobe of 3 dresses, 2 play outfits, 1 pirate outfit, 1 kitty hat, 2 pairs of boots and 1 striped scarf.

The little crafter who tackles this project needs to be old enough to safely handle scissors and do some relatively fine cutting. The dolls’ clothing all come with the standard fold-over tabs, but you can all play pin-up – securing the dolls and clothing to a bulletin board (as pictured), or, with the aid of an adult, magnetic strips can be adhered verso and ‘presto!’ the fridge door becomes a runway.
