Wow! I'm happy about the response! Okay, let's do it! Here are the details:
The above dollie is by Jennifer Bohrer over at Art Chix Studio.See her tutorial on art doll hats here.
So what is an Art Doll Hat? I think that they are wearable dolls. Typically in a party hat shape. (in fact, many of them use a party hat as a base!) The examples I have seen often use the hat shape as a skirt for the doll. The doll itself is an embellished photograph or other image. Not a 3D doll. You can get as creative as you want but they seem pretty easy in their construction.
Most of the materials are available at Art Chix Studio but feel free to get creative!!!

oooh sounds fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ur tiara will be in the mail by Saturday... soooooo excited!!!
Hooray, Jus! I'm still thinking about how I want to package yours. I just looked at the Flickr group and saw Artsy Fartsy's packaging. Wow.
Sounds like fun! Although I've never made anything like that before! Maybe you can give us a few more examples! I'm always game for something challenging and open to interpretation!
Yow! Those examples are cool, and I'm mighty glad you included them, because I really had no idea what an Art Doll Hat was... I'd definitely be game for trying one, though I make no promises as to the results... I'd need a very understanding partner. ;)
I love it Amy....count me in!
Keep me posted....
{I am hopeing you do it after the first though!
I have waaaaay too many swaps in the works already this month!}
