Christmas Dotee Dolls!

Hey Folks, 

Its been a little while since I posted- I've been crafting as much as possible to get everything ready for Christmas! I'll be posting up all the gifts I've made soon, but for now- here are a couple of Dotee dolls I made for the Christmas Dotee Doll Swap I hosted on CO+K- 


Dotee Dolls are usually about 3-7 inches tall, they have a loop at the top so they can be hung up (in this case- on the Christmas tree!), and they usually have a beaded or embellished tail. Traditionally they are made, given a name and then sent to a friend. 

If you've not heard of Dotees before, here are some good resources to find out more information and for inspiration too!

This first one I made was for a lady in the Netherlands- the doll is called Grandma Christmas: 
                                                                                           


And the second is called Connie (like Conifer- get it?) and was for a lady in Washington, USA




And ->Here<- is the link if you want to check out what everyone else made in this swap.

More Christmas crafts coming soon!

Happy Holidays,
