Art dolls...swap-bot...dotees???

I recently discovered swap-bot. I really am having a lot of fun with it. I have already completed a couple of swaps. One of the swaps that I signed up for is for a striped dotee doll.









Even though I have yet to be assigned my partner, I was inspired to make this one. I call her "Striped Sherbert Bride." Even though she is what is now known as a "Dotee doll," I think of her as an art doll.








Long before I discovered "Dotee dolls," I was making faces like these up into brooches for my friends and family. Here are a couple that I have decided to put up in my etsy shop:






I was inspired a couple of years ago by all the darling little "kawaii" out there. For those that don't know, kawaii just means anything that is cute and "japinese-esque."

Anyways, if you love to make things for others and love to get things in the mail you should pop over to swap-bot and see if there is a swap you might enjoy! To sign up is free...hope to see you there!
