Wool and Water

I've spent the afternoon thinking up new graphics for the blog and store, working my way through a pint of Tofutti Better Pecan Ice Cream and admiring the work of Wool and Water's Amy Earles. Her aritculated paper dolls have really stolen my heart. I love the little worlds she dreams up for them to live in. She's got me racking my brain to figure out how I can be a paper doll next Halloween. I guess I have a little time to figure that out.

See her Flickr here, her blog here and her Etsy store here.

Paper Doll
Wear white knee-highs and a slip. Cut out and paint a piece of cardboard to look like a dress, including rectangular tabs on the sides, and wear it in front of you attached with ribbons.

I found this when i was searching the web for costume inspiration this year..perhaps some inspiration will come to you from this. By the way i really enjoy your blog, i have become a bit of a junkie...in the best way possible of course. So thank you!!!
