Thoughts on Today’s Paper Doll
Sleepwear is something I don’t seem to draw very much. I don’t know why, but it just doesn’t seem to happen. Both of these nightgowns could also be dresses, I suppose, if one was feeling super casual.

I specifically wanted to do a whimsical design on the pink nightgown to feel like something you might see as a novelty print.

Inspiration for Today’s Paper Doll
Well… night gowns? I mean… I don’t draw a lot of paper doll sleepwear, so I wanted to make those, plus I’ve been working on some paper doll sleepwear for my Etsy paper dolls.

Specific Source Images: Nothing particular today.

Last Thoughts

I hope everyone is having a great December. I’m taking a little holiday break from the blog here from the 15th until January 2020. I’m off to visit family! Meanwhile, there’s plenty of paper dolls here to explore.

  1. I found your website yesterday by googling “African American printable paper dolls”. This led to a post you had a few years ago with an internet round up of black paper dolls. I was so happy but realized I wanted magnetic dolls for my girls. And you pulled through again.
    I just want to say thank you for the beautiful dolls attention to detail etc.
    You’ve helped this broke mom make her daughters very happy.

    I do have a question.. It’s probably stupid but the other paper dolls I can print them on magnetic paper and just omit the tabs to make them magnetic dolls too?

    • Any of the paper dolls you print on magnetic paper will be magnets. However, they maybe not to scale with the ones I resized and reformated for magnetic paper. Additionally, I do try with my magnetic ones to not waste any of the magnetic paper (it’s so expensive) and so I remove a lot of the spacing. Anyway, the short answer is Yes.
