About us

Find out a little more about who we are and why we started Paper Street Dolls...

Paper Street Dolls was co-created by sisters Claire and Julie Sheridan in 2015, born from our love for paper, colour, decorating and a desire to work together combining our passions.
We specialise in colourful, painted and illustrated paper decorations, original gifts and homewares for every occasion...

Where it all began...
Creating increasingly elaborate Christmas decor since we were little, we decided it would be best to come up with a way to be elves for all seasons, to make and use high quality, ethical paper decorations all year round and share our creations with the like-minded round the globe.

About us...

  • Claire graduated with a BAHons in Textiles from the Glasgow School of Art where she specialised in print, and has many years experience as a freelance textile designer and community artist, becoming a founding member of a Glasgow based arts collective.
  • Julie graduated with a BAHons in Communication Design, and has worked on a variety of illustration and design projects alongside freelance community arts.

We continue to be inspired by our love of colour, nature, pop-culture and so much more. Our passion combines with our experience working with people - inspiring our contemporary decorations that evoke nostalgia, blend the traditional notions of what is art and what is craft, and diy kits that can bring the joy of creation to everyone.

Basically, our ethos is we're like if the Arts and Crafts movement had watched a lot of film and tv.
