Annie Belle's Australia Day

On the 26th of January every year Australians celebrate Australia Day. Because this day is so special to us as Australians, we've made an Annie Belle's Australia Day doll. She comes complete with her own Australian flag and typically Australian food. She's ready to celebrate Australia Day.

Annie Belle's First Holy Communion

Recently my own sister made her first holy communion. This inspired us to make this month's Annie Belle theme a First Holy Communion theme. She has her own white dress and a veil. Dress her up and help Annie Belle celebrate her special day.



Epiphany Dolls


With Epiphany coming up, we decided to complete the nativity scene and make the Three Wise Men. They are on stands, like the rest of the Nativity scene characters. We've given them a camel as well. Try printing off three camels, one for each of them. We've also given them their famous gifts of Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh. These also come on stands. Have fun!

Nativity Scene


At long last we've managed to complete our 'Annie Belle' style nativity scene. You can either print it out fully coloured or have the fun of colouring it in yourself.


To make up the stable first cut out all the pieces. Then bend the flaps of the triangular front pieces backwards. Stick the roof pieces to the flaps. This should create a triangular roof. Bend the flaps of the walls backwards. Stick the top flap of each piece to the roof. Stick the bottom flap to a pieces of heavy cardboard. Now your stable is ready to receive Jesus on Christmas day.

New St Nicholas Paper Doll

Well, here is the first of our Advent/Christmas paper dolls. This one is St Nicholas, patron saint of children. I guess it is appropriate then that we have made him into a paper doll for children to colour in. Have fun with St Nicholas and keep looking out for our new Annie Belle and the Nativity scene paper dolls that we hope to put up soon.



Paper Doll Girls

Etcetera and I have always loved paper dolls. There is something so fascinating about creating clothes for a paper friend and making up a world for her to live in. As we've grown older we haven't stopped liking paper dolls. But now we prefer to make them rather than play with them. We hope that our paper dolls will be the perfect playmates for little girls who love them as much as we do.

Annie Belle is our first doll. She's rather a trial for us as we've never tried anything like putting one online before. But we're fairly certain that it's worked and we'd love to know what you think of her. We're also going to put up an uncoloured version of Annie Belle for those children who like to colour and personalise their own dolls. Keep watching out for more dolls on this page. And especially keep an eye out for more Annie Belle. She'll be turning up again soon with a whole new wardrobe of clothes and a brand new destination.

Annie Belle Colouring Page

Well, here is the colouring in version of Annie Belle. My sisters have already tried her out and decided that she's good enough. It's good to have younger sisters to try these things out on. Soon we'll have the new Annie Belle paper doll ready to go up on the blog and hopefully this time I'll remember to put the colouring in page up at the same time.

  1. Etcetera draws them. I just put them on the computer and load them onto the blog. But yes, they're all original.

  3. Hi Renata. I thought that no one was looking at the dolls. It's so nice to find out that there are people using them. Thanks for stopping to tell me so.
