If you use the templates, do remember to post some pictures! Would love to see what you do with them. Want to trade paperdolls sometime?

I'd love to trade sometime, no idea when I'll get some done but it's nice to have the option there for when I do have time.

....isn't that head on the left figure - from a popular Russian painter ? .... if so - do you remember his name ?

It's Tretchikoff. The painting ("The Chinese Girl") has become a famous kitsch icon. His site is here ~ [link]

Ha! Nice try to make us think you are emptying your eyelet stash! I, however, know a brad when I see one! Why is this the case, you might ask. Well, it's because I have a brad stash I need to get rid of as well as the eyelet stash.... May i suggest that if you articulate their ankles, you can use up more eyelets/brads?
Then hands! Necks! Think of it--everything could swing around in chaotic movement!
Just like us.
Sorry, I woke up silly.
Love these by the way!

OOps. yEs. Brads, not eyelets. I keep buying packs of decorative ones. Maybe I should try a skeleton paperdoll for halloween and articulate every single bone!

Now you're talking! And don't forget to label each bone!

Wow, I just noticed the necks ARE articulated. Whoa, hogret! Well done!
