Thoughts on Today’s Paper Doll
When I consider themes I like to draw for paper dolls (and there are a lot) fairies usually show up somehow.
It’s funny to me how much I like drawing sweet flower fairies with butterfly wings given my preference for actual fairy folklore where you do not really want their attention and they might kill you.
Still, it is more fun to draw versions with butterfly wings and draped grecian gowns.
Every paper doll fairy needs wings! So, you can glue these wings to the back of the paper dolls and they can fly! (Well, not literally) But you should glue the wings to the back of the paper doll and then fold them back slightly, carefully. Then the tabs for the clothing can slide between the wings and the back of the doll.
Inspiration for Today’s Paper Doll
I wanted to do a draped grecian inspired fairy gown with boots and I wanted to draw some over the top fairy wings.

Yesterday, my amazing supporters on Patreon got a evening gown yesterday, so join up if you want a Friday paper doll outfit every week!
Plus, if you follow me on Instagram, you can see the 100 days of paper dolls I’ve been working on. Me and three other paper doll artists are all using #100daysofpaperdolls to share our work.
This is beautiful! Thank you.
Those wings are gorgeous! Thank you!
What if you did draw some more traditional faerie outfits?
I’ve done very little of that, because I’m not sure what they would wear. Maybe for halloween? I just don’t know what a Banshee or a Swan Maiden or a Washerwoman really wears.
So pretty! I love the wings.
This is lovely! I love how flowy the dress is, and the wings are beautiful!
Thank you!
