Mini Paper Doll Travel Set

This was a late night crafting project, but it started when I was thinking of ways to keep Emily occupied while waiting at a restaurant or doctor’s office. These mini paper dolls are perfect because they fit in my purse, and I cannot wait to give them to her the next time we’re stuck waiting somewhere. They cost practically nothing to make!

To make your own, start with an empty mint tin:

Remember those discontinued wallpaper sample books I’ve mentioned before? The ones you can pick up for free?? They work so well for this project! Cut out scenery for your dolls. I used an adhesive magnet strip to keep the scenery in place.

I thought it would be fun to make a scene for each season. In the Summer, Mini-Emily can go to the beach!
In the Fall, there are apples to pick!
In the Spring, she can help hang up the laundry to dry!
And in the Winter, what’s more fun than playing in snow??
I attached some more wallpaper to the top of the tin, and all of the pieces fit so nicely inside.

You could make indoor scenes, wild west scenes, space scenes….. The possibilities are practically limitless — have fun!!
