I also hated when the clothes fell off. I much preferred the ones where you could just stick the clothes on. They had some sort of a plastic surface and the clothes were plastic too. For the life of me I can't remember what they were called.<br />I do love this little one's attire though. Very cute!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16299867624939647862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1563433147316949363.post-78894945253867621262011-07-02T20:53:02.678-05:002011-07-02T20:53:02.678-05:00I so remember those tabs frustrating me too!!

I still loved to play with them though...have to admit I bought some magnetic ones at the dollar store a couple of months ago to add to my "toy box" that is a part of the journey in the book "Simple Abundance".

I loved mine and years ago My daughter ordered me some paper dolls which I still have. That was so neat that someone took the time to send additional clothing for this doll. A great decoration for the holiday.

We just accepted the way they were dressed and didn't have to fight with the dreaded tabs!<br /><br />My daughter had wooden "paper dolls" with wooden clothes that velcroed on the doll...she didn't play with them much either.The Nebby Needlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04616509689628236396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1563433147316949363.post-35269097027597606532011-07-01T15:37:27.451-05:002011-07-01T15:37:27.451-05:00I wasn't much into paper dolls either.

In fact, I just bought a box of Moda reproduction paper dolls at the quilt store. Needless to say, my daughters think I am nuts, and if my husband ever finds them...well, I won't let that happen!

I used to cut out the clothes and makes the tabs longer and thinner so they would stay on better!<br />I never had one as ornate and beautiful as this one though.Jo who can't think of a clever nicknamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02663450738390351663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1563433147316949363.post-83867589854838358422011-07-01T14:13:33.065-05:002011-07-01T14:13:33.065-05:00That's too funny Brenda - When I first saw tha...That's too funny Brenda - When I first saw that picture, I zoomed in on the tabs and knew I was looking at my nemesis again...and then you said it!! I was exactly the same way!! They never worked "quite right" ("perfectly" enough) for me - and, hey - they were paper! You knew they weren't going to last like a REAL doll would - and you couldn't hold them or cuddle them like you could a real doll!! Love it....you've been my therapy for the day....but I still do feel guilty when I see how dang cute they are....Smiles & Hugs ~ RobinTheCrankyCrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16314851714923955216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1563433147316949363.post-68080702261128181802011-07-01T11:47:52.987-05:002011-07-01T11:47:52.987-05:00Love this paper doll in her 4th of July attire!! ...Love this paper doll in her 4th of July attire!!
