Description:

Artdolls are open ended so I figure we could try and combine the softie and artdoll. They provide a great venue for the crafter/ artist to combine their ideas into something that makes an impression and has a great artistic value.

What will make this softie extra special and help it cross that line into art doll realm will be use of some non conventional softie items. This can be anything from polymer clay parts( faces, hands, feet, etc.), charms, jewelry components, glass beads, pom poms. ribbon, silk flowers, brads, studs, fabric paints, fibers, etc, etc...

The sky is the limit on creativity for this doll/softie. It will be up to the sender to create something that they are proud to give to their partner.

There are only a few things that you Artdoll/ Softie has to have.

  • Must have softie element (must be stuffed)
  • At least use 2 non-conventional items in your doll.
