One of the first movies I ever saw in a movie theater was Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. It was the first time I had ever seen a Parisian village and I was in awe of Belle’s gorgeous ballgown at the end of the film.

Now, I’ve seen just about every Disney film created, but nothing really compares to what I felt seeing Beauty and the Beast for the first time.

If your family loves the movie as much as I do, you’ll have fun with this DIY Beauty and the Beast paper doll craft. It’s the perfect thing to add to greeting cards, gift bags, or use as a little puppet!
