Keep Clowns Cute With Peppermintsticks!

I am tired of the bad rap that clowns have been getting and though I do love a good cozy mystery I am put off that Steven King took a fun and fantastic childhood character and have made Clowns go from super cute to creepy.

So today I share my favorite clown costumes from Peppermintsticks. For bitty and her kitty to 18 inch dolls and their dogs these are great patterns that will see lots of fun creativedoll play time!

You can find Peppermintsticks patterns on Pixie Faire
