I'm in love! I recently discovered this tutorial for clothespin dolls and I can't stop making them (thanks Going Sew Crazy, and I mean that in a good way :) . I must perfect them and I won't stop until I do. I've made a few so far. My first was just hideous. I can't even show you, she's that bad, I'm so embarrassed. My next one was better, my third a little better. I had to order some flesh colored pipe cleaner since I searched high and low and couldn't find any. So my second has lollipop stick arms and my third has dark beige-ish pipe cleaner arms. Her skin tone is not quite what I was looking for. But I'm hoping that one woman's trash is another woman's treasure (not that I would ever throw her away). I plan on using the pink doll as my next giveaway on my party blog: http://www.partiesbyhardie/. I usually do a giveaway around the first of each month and since she's meant to be a birthday doll, I figured she would work. I'll have more to share as soon as my pipe cleaners come : ) There will be more, many many more.

I love this clothespin doll! I have to make one like the pink birthday one you made. My daughter's 1st birthday is next month and it would be too cute to display at her party! :)
Lovely dolls! =)
They look great! I will have to make the candle one. That is so cute!
