Our team challenge for July is a doll inspired by a book, movie, TV show, or real life current or historical character. Be sure to tell us who your doll is, or who it was inspired by.
Just a quick note on copyright. Please be careful of copyrighted characters. Laws differ from country to country, but most movies or TV shows or recent books (written by people still living) are protected by copyright laws in most places. There are some companies who will occasionally check places like Etsy to be sure that no one is using their characters without permission. If your doll is a real life historic character or from a book old enough to be public domain, you should be just fine. If in doubt, look up copyright laws on the net. I'm no expert, but don't want to lead anyone into possible trouble!
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, all entries that are listied on Etsy will be included in our team treasury, and all dolls entered will be shown on our facebook page.
You may post up to 4 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 Cath Roy for the original theme suggestion.
