who remembers paperdolls??

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!!

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.

I remember playing with paper dolls but I don't remember any names, We used to make our own out of the Sears book.We are telling our age.lol

I think I got mine out of a book that was kinda like a coloring book...I think I even got to color their clothes..LOL..I vaguely remember a long trip to Flrida as a tiny child playing with them in the backseat..LOL..I hadn't thought about that until now..Thanks for the memory!

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:)

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

I do remember those paper dolls where I have a collection of them. They are pretty cute with all the accessories that comes with all the beautiful gowns to match. I think children nowadays are more advance and no longer play with paper dolls unlike our time where children are so simple minded and are fascinated by simple toys.

I played paper dolls when I was a little girl. I can't remember the name of any of them but I do remember playing with them. And yes it does bring back memories of a great childhood. I often remember those carefree days without a worry in the world.

Hi Antiquelady, I remember paper dolls, man it's been a long time since I thought of that. WOW~ I used to play with mind for hrs.I loved ever moment of it. I didn't have a sister, so it was just me and my paper dolls. I even tried to make my own but I am sorry to say I was not good at it. What wonderful memories. Thanks. have a wonderful and blessed Sunday.

Oh yes I most definitely do. I had them long long ago and even designed my own pattern for the paper dolls. I don't see any shop selling them today - if I do see and the price is affordable, I might just buy for keepsake....thansk for posting up this discussion...hehehe just brings back memories...maybe that's why your user name is antiquelady...eheheh...I like old old stuff and vintage stuff though I don't collect them...firstly, can't afford to and secondly there's no space in my apartment.
