Counting Down the Days

The cleverly designed 1860's period costume of this shapely, free-standing 16.5" doll is full of surprises. Each point on the doll's overskirt can be looped up and hung from a bead, either to create a different look or to serve as an Advent Calendar marking the passing of each day before Christmas, thereby revealing the lining underneath and creating a whole new look for the doll in the lead up to the holidays. Construction details include applied eyelids, making a separate neck, opposable thumbs and a simple wire armature.
