With my love of all things paper, I suppose it was rather inevitable that my little addiction would only progress. First it was scrapbooking, then card-making, then origami and now I've moved onto even bigger projects.
Well, I guess they're smaller projects really.
I started making miniature geisha washi dolls, and I'm hooked!
It all started with a simple little tutorial I purchased about paper dolls, and I was hooked with the first one I made. granted, she was simple and basic, but I soon found i could change up the design and achieve different looks and poses. I could use whatever color paper I wished, add whatever hair-style and accessories i wanted and I even began branching out into adding scenery to my dolls! There were just so many options and avenues to try, it was the perfect craft!
I already have a list a mile long of things I want to try, and I can't wait to try them and post about my successes and the occasional failures. (What is art without a few boo-boos along the way? :D )
I'm very excited to begin sharing my craft and I hope to foster greater interest in the art or paper dolling. ^_^
A lovely story and start to your blog!
