1. cicisnana (281) | 8 months ago | Oh yeah, I remember those paper dolls. How fun those were!! But those darn tricky tabs that you would fold down over the doll, no wonder the thing didn't last!! I know they had came up with some sort of magnetized paper doll which was really neat but it didn't last long either. I think little girls would still have fun with them. I know my sister and I did. But heck, we used to have fun with M & M's too!!

2. bubblyapple (1411) | 8 months ago | I remember when I was young, I paly paperdolls with my sister and cousins. We even learned how to make dresses out of paper. We would "decorate" those dresses with the latest "styles" and then have our paper dolls wear the dresses for parties or fashion shows.

5. mylesnarvaez (1620) | 8 months ago | my memory of paper dolls were the ones my sisters and i made ourselves. back then we couldn't afford to buy dolls and commercial paper dolls still cost money we didn't have. out of shoeboxes and old calendars, we were able to make our own version of paperdolls along with their dresses. my mom used to be a sewer so she would tell us ideas on how to make skirts and dresses and gowns. the rest we leave to our imaginations.
those were really good old days, when fun and entertainment didn't cost much. we had simpler pleasures back then. hehehe:)

6. makingpots (6662) | 8 months ago | I remember paper dolls. I didn't play with them enough to remember any of them by name. One memory I have of playing with them is that my sister and I used to design our own clothes for them and draw them ourselves. We drew a lot of hippie clothing..... halter tops, bell bottom hip huggers. Haha
