St. Patrick's Day Twins Paper Dolls



Here's another recolor of the Twins Around the World paper dolls--this time it's The Irish Twins, of course, because it's St. Patrick's Day! The original version of these was from the September 1922 Ladies' Home Journal. I thought it would be fun to make them into redheads, since the originals had black hair. But the red hair clashed with the red slip and shawl, so I made those green. And then I recolored the pig, too, just because I could, and added a few other details to fit the theme--I'm quite pleased that the harp stands up properly, since that didn't exist on the original. I have better files to work from than I did last month, so these should print out a lot better than the Valentine's Day ones did. I'll have to redo the Valentine's ones sometime when I get a chance. Anyhow, happy St. Patrick's Day! Have fun printing these and cutting them out.
