Description:

For this swap, we will be creating one art doll for one partner with the theme of flowers.

Dolls should be your best work, as behooves doll artists! At least 4" tall, no paper dolls, dotees, or plushies. If your doll is meant to hang, please include hanger.

Interpretation is senders choice, as long as the theme is flowers. This could mean floral fabric, a flower fairy, a flower petal dress... the possibilities are endless. You can alter a doll, create from fabric, clay, metal, it is up to you, whatever inspires you.

Note: This does not mean it has to be cute or pretty. A gothish flower fairy or something inspired by Morticia is perfectly fine.

Some inspiration :)

Can you define for ne hat a plushie is, please? eg. would a doll made from felt be considered a plushie? Or hand needle felted dolls or components?

Sure! We had a short forum discussion here if you want to chime in also. @Wolfeagle really nailed it in her comment.

And to be more specific, needle felting components would be perfectly acceptable. If your doll is made from felt, I just ask that other components be added to make it into an actual art doll.
