August Team Challenge: funny/humorous dolls

Our challenge for August is humorous dolls. Show us dolls that will make us laugh! If there is a not-so-obvious joke or pun to your doll, be sure to give us a hint! Or if your description is really hilarious, make sure to tell us so we'll be sure to read it. I'm sure some of you are very clever writers when it comes to descriptions! I can't wait to see what clever things you will come up with!

If you wish to join the challenge, just post a link here to your etsy listing showing your doll. If your doll is not currently for sale on Etsy, you can post it to our Facebook page here www.facebook.com/EtsyDollmakersTeam - be sure to mark it "team challenge" if you post it on facebook. Please post entries by the last day of this month.

At the beginning of next month, entries that are listied on Etsy will be included in our team treasury.

You may post up to 5 dolls , however I may choose only 1-3 from each artist to include in our treasury depending on how many entries we receive.

Please be sure that your items meet the challenge theme. Any other dolls may be listed in our New Listings thread www.etsy.com/teams/8062/dollmakers/discuss/9376132/

You may post new dolls, dolls you already had made, or doll clothing items that fit into our theme.
Thanks to Jane Boyd for this month's team challenge theme idea.
You can recommend a theme for a future challenge or vote for someone else's idea in the following thread

This is a good one for my silly themed ninjas!

Ninja turkey doesn't plan on being on anyone's dinner plate!

Here's a princess who never needs rescued!

There has been a long standing feud between ninja's and pirates. Pirate ninja asks "why can't we all get along?".

Hippie Ninja doesn't want to fight. He just wants peace, love, and all that stuff.

Jennifer, I was thinking of you when I posted Mitzi :)

Cath, here's Blanche... a retired schoolmarm. She was persuaded to retire as a result of her unorthodox teaching methods.

Boo is a jester. He's supposed to make the king or queen laugh but you know cats don't like to play dress up.

Re: August Team Challenge: funny/humorous dolls

And here's something about Odette:
She's a happy onion, who would love to make people laugh - but as she's an onion, sadly enough, the opposite happens all the time. This is why Odette looks a bit disturbed...

Re: August Team Challenge: funny/humorous dolls

To me, small, cute, pissed out critters are funny. Especially sock critters, which are generally cheerful:

Love your doll, Sally. There are so many great ones. Jennifer will have a hard time choosing. Such a hard job she has.

I got a chuckle out of Odette Onion by Verena. And love the pecs and abs on the merman peg doll by Karen. So cute, yet so manly. ;)
