Marie Grace at the spa Plus:How to make Doll Yarn hair wraps

Marie Gracie went to the Doll town Spa today. She had her hair picked out using a fine tooth comb and  a floss pick, her body was cleaned using Clearasil face wipes, And her torso was cleaned as well. After she got a donut and a Mint chocolate chip shake at the snack stand,  she saw an ad for..... Yarn Hair Wraps!
To make a yarn wrap for your doll you need:
2 colors of yarn
Clear packing tape
Clear hair elastics

1. I begin by braiding a small section of hair, and secure with a clear hair elastic. 
2. I then tie a strand of yarn the length of your shoulder to your hand to the braided section.
3. Wrap the strand around the braided part. When that strand runs out (If it does.) Tie another strand to the hair and repeat. To secure the end of the yarn, I use some clear packing tape.

I hope you enjoyed this craft.

And now for something different. Drumroll please.........

How to make Doll Donuts

Hello!
This is my first craft post in 2 weeks, so I am just Too Excited to share this craft with you! Today we will be making chocolate doughnuts for our dolls. And Voila, It is on a nice new cookie sheet.
For the Donuts:
Terra cotta clay (I am using DAS modeling material from Hobby Lobby)
White clay (I am using Paper Clay)
Twisty Ties
Wooden dowel
Glue
Seed beads or glitter
For the Sheet:
Foam Paper
Glue
Tinfoil
Twist ties

1. I begin by rolling out a strip of terra cotta clay. 
2. In  the middle of the strip, Place a Twisty tie. Then I roll the strip into a snake, making sure no twisty ties show. 
3. I then roll the snake into a doughnut shape , and I make sure that you are only twisting the part where you feel a twisty tie. I trim off the excess.
4. I then roll some white clay into a thin snake. I wind the snake around the top of the donut to look like icing. I sprinkle the icing with seed beads or glitter.
5. To make the cookie sheet, cut a mini foam sheet in half. Wrap it in foil. Than cover two twist ties in foil, bend like handles, and glue to the sheet.
6. You are done!

Enjoy making doughnuts for dolls!

Basic Crafting

Hello!

Today I will be showing you how to perfect the art of crafting, and this post does not reqire photos. This post will tell you all about the basic supplies needed to make most of the crafts on this blog. 

The supplies are:

• Computer paper- This is by far the most simple craft supply.It Can be found almost anywhere.
• Cardboard-This is also pretty basic. Collect cardboard from cereal boxes, Poptart  boxes and shipping boxes.
• Craft Foam-I buy Mine at createforless.com.You can Get 50 mini sheets of foam for somewhere around six dollars.
• Fabric-I Buy mine at Joan's fabric by the yard.
• Tinfoil- This is something you probably have at home. 
• Drinking Straws-I get Mine from amazon.  However, To save time and money, pick up some at your local coffe shop for free.
• Bottlecaps- Collect these from water , soda and Gatorade bottles
• Lara's wooden button plugs- Athese are not all that basic, But they are doll play gold. I get mine the same place I got the craft foam sheets.
• Markers-My advice-Do not go too fancy. I just use Crayola Pip Squeaks.
• Scrapbook paper-This is a great play essential. Get it in a value pack, and buying it from a vendor aimed at younger kids will lower costs. 
• Popsicle sticks-Warning- Buy these from a craft store. Do not use used Popsicle sticks!
• Colored Computer paper-Recycle from brochures.
• Ads from the paper-These have many uses.

Next Are a few tips:

1. Do not use any food product in your crafts. If you want to treasure miniatures forever, Refrain from using salt dough that has not been sealed. Also Refrain from using anything with sugar in your crafts.
2. While crafting, Keep in mind that dangers may be posed. If you are under 11, I would ask a parents help on hot glueing, clay baking or ironing a patch. For your safety, Hot glue and oven bake clay are not used in any crafts.

Enjoy!
