The beloved character from books by Lucy Maud Montgomery gets the paper doll treatment with this lovely little set, along with her stalwart friend Diana.

 When I talk about paper dolls being used as inspiration for theatrical costume design this set fits the bill nicely. Simple clean artwork which evokes the period can be a real help to the fledgling or experienced designer as it has been for me over the years.

DORIS DAY & CARY GRANT MASH UP.

Something about this obscure little bridal set said Doris & Cary to me and so I turned it into a set of them by adding their heads onto the dolls. It's much better now don't you think?

For another Mash up set featuring Doris Day & Rock Hudson check out the post for April 19, 2024.

She was a Hollywood "B" movie actress, mostly in westerns but her fame came in the early days of live television when she was the on screen spokesperson for Revlon cosmetics. Although an obscure personality today she lives on through this deluxe 5 doll set which is very well drawn with some scrumptious 1950's fashions on display.

 

600th POST! - HAYLEY MILLS MAGIC MASH UP

600th POST! - HAYLEY MILLS MAGIC MASHUP.

We've reached our 600th post and to celebrate here is a double mash up of my favorite paper doll character - Hayley Mills. What started out as a rather nondescript "magic" paper doll set has been converted by adding Hayley's head and the addition of tabs to all of the outfits to create an entirely new set that I think really pops. There are a huge number of clothes too with my favorite thing of all - Hats!

If you love Hayley like I do check out these other paper doll sets from previous posts:
