Reimagining the Gingham Paper Dolls

In the continuation of celebrating the childhood classics, one cannot take that trip back to the 70's or 80's without talking about the hours spent playing with those adorable Gingham Paper Dolls.

Before learning to sew doll clothes, these colorful and delightful dolls: Sarah, Katie, Becky, and Carrie, along with their treasure chest of quickly installed outfits filled many hours of playtime!

Oh what fun it was, popping the dolls and their clothes out from the pre-cut pages! Back when I was a kid, the 'activity books' were a feature in the Scholastic Book Club. Come to think of it, the Gingham Paper Dolls were the first group of friends I ever collected!

This fall, Beauty of Creating brings to you, just in time for the holidays, our rendition of the four friends, modeled by our flagship Journey Girl Doll's by Toys R Us/TRU Kids.

Stay tuned as dissect, recreate, and bring this charming collection to life!

Bye for now!
