Dotee Doll - February-USA

Hello.

Edited for send date. 15th is a postal holiday.

The first Dotee swap for January was well received and I have had so much fun making mine that I am posting one for February.

Same as last time. One partner, one dotee; the theme is February inspiration. Choose either a regular holiday, Valentines of course, or a weird and wacky holiday. Go to: http://www.holidayinsights.com/moreholidays/february.htm to check some out!

There are a lot of good wacky holidays to choose from this month, eg: Lame Duck Day, Supper Bowl Sunday, White T-Shirt Day, Mardi Gras, National Tooth Ache Day, etc....

General rules for a Dotee Doll:

They have a circular face that can be drawn with markers, embroidered or even painted (clay faces are great too!). They are a stuffed doll and usually have a hanger made out of ribbon or beads, and a beaded tail (Usually no arms or legs, but you can add if you want) The stuffed doll is embellished with beads, ribbon, sequins, yarn...just about anything, This style of doll is based on the work of a blogger called Dot and has become popular amongst the SwapBot community where many crafters join to swap dotee inspired dolls.

And as for the icky stuff... I angel all swaps I host. If there is a flaker amongst the group, I will hunt them down and slap them in the belly with a wet trout!

Have a happy day!
