Halloween special! Plus:My newest doll family member

Okay, I know I said how to MAKE candy was coming up, but a lot of this will be on fun finds. Plus, I added a new Liv doll to our collection. She is discontinued , so we were lucky to get her. Miss Katie, our new doll, will be our model for the fairy costume that can be re sized for any doll from a Lalaloopsy to a My Twin, this dress can be altered in so many ways! First up, the fun finds!
Above are the first finds. They are mini chocolate bars! I got them trick or treating , but I have seen them in bulk at snack kiosks. I got: Mr Good Bar, Hersheys dark, and Hersheys milk. I also got the dots trick or treating.
Next up, the costume! To make the easy fairy dress, you need:
Old lace tablecloth
Old bed sheet
Scissors
Safety pin
1. I start by measuring a piece of the sheet to fir around my doll. I hold it in place with the pin.
2. I cut one piece of the tablecloth the same size as the sheet. I wrap the lace around the sheet, and I add the lace to the safety pinned cloth.
3. I cut a strip of lace the same width of the other cloth. I wrap it around, and I tie it around my doll.
I added The fairy wings from My Froggy Stuff to complete the outfit.
 Presto, You have a costume!

Enjoy!

A huge Dollhouse

Hello!
I know I have not blogged in an eternity, but I have been super busy lately. I took this picture at the world-famous Rijks museum in Amsterdam. Although this is for a 12 inch or a mini doll, I found it fascinating. I do indeed have dolls other than 18 inch dolls. I have a collection of Kokeshi dolls, Japanese mini dolls, and Momiji dolls, which are a line with every kind of resin mini doll, from Pixie (I think that is her name), a cute Kokeshi doll holding a cupcake, To Ted, a sad monkey with tears down his face.
Anyway, this dollhouse was so fascinating! Although you cannot see, this house has a small kitchen, a loft, a parlor, a living room and much more! Oh, how I want to live inside there! I wonder how to make that....
Ooh, do you an armoire? I bet I could use a bookcase for the base!
And the furnishings! Well, wooden furniture sets can work!
And this even inspired us to branch out! Soon we will welcome katie, a Liv doll, to our family!
 Enjoy!

Ice cream for dolls!

Hey guys!
Our technical issues are over! Today I will be showing you to how to make a soft serve sundae for your doll. You will need:
Plastic salad dressing cup
Kleenex
Beads
Glaze
Glue
Oil pastel
Paper cup
Paintbrush

1. I start by filling a plastic food sample cup to the top with Kleenex. I brush on a layer of glue.
2. I then put on a pair of rubber gloves, and I coat the gloves with glue. I roll a sheet of Kleenex into a thin rope, and the glue helps the rope take form. I wind the rope around the middle of the cup, and then secure with more glue. Be sure to make sure that when the rope is almost done winding, it forms a peak.
3. 3.To make sauce, I scribble oil pastel on the bottom of a paper cup. I pour some glaze (I use toys to grow on water proofing glaze.) Into the bottom of the cup. I mix with a paintbrush till the glaze has picked up the pastel color. You can choose which kind of sundae you wish to make. I made a sundae I call the Frostine (Left) using magenta (Strawberry) sauce and pink beads, And a Tropical Glitz sundae (Right) using blue,( Ocean blue)lime green(Kiwi) and yellow(Pineapple) sauces. I used blue seed beads for toppings.

I have so many ideas in the works! Some of them are:

A bedroom

A vintage coffee house

A Chinese Dumpling shop

An Airport

A classroom

Doll Halloween candy (This will be posted on Halloween night, as part of a Dolloween special post.)

Babysitting Items (Baby food, babysitters manual, cloth diapers, medication, reward stickers.)

Those are just some of the wonderful ideas in the works. Well, I have to go go the supplies for the bedroom, so I am Signing out! Click!

Enjoy!

How to make cute doll Ballet Flats

Hello!
So, Notice anything Different about Rebecca's Outfit? Yes, She got a new pair of shoes fit for a queen! To make these, you need:
Tissue Paper
Glue
Quart plastic bags
Masking tape

1. I start by cutting a quart plastic bag in half. I Place the bag around my dolls foot.
2. Next, I wrap masking tape around the plastic Bag, So it hugs my dolls foot, Like a cast.
3. I then cut down the side, and i remove the boot.
4. Then cut off the portion you want. I cut off the ankle part of the boot I made, and part of the top so it would look like a ballet flat.
5. To color the shoes, I dip Strips of tissue paper in school glue, and I plaster them onto the flat. Repeat Process For shoe 2.

And you are done! For extra dazzle, glue a jewel bead onto the top of the shoe. Use Many colors of tissue paper to give it more blitz, Or decorate with glitter glue.

Enjoy!

A doll Theatre!

Hello!
I am so sorry about not sharing more crafts! School is so busy, and I have been getting a boatload of homework. Anyway, Here is a cool craft on making a cool theatre plus some cool movie snacks! You need: Many craft  supplies!

1. Start with a red trifold poster board. 
2. I make the screen by cutting up pictures from the AG catalog. Any doll catalog would work. I glue bits and pieces of various photos to make the screen. I cut out photos of two dolls at a sleepover, some food, a salon caddy, some mini dolls, some hair extensions, a magazine, a book and a pet. I mount it onto a piece of colored paper.
3. For the box office, I tape two folders together. Using my doll as a guide, I lay her down on the large folder we just made. I sketch out a square around her face, leaving a lot of room so it goes down to her chest. I cut out the square, and I replace it with clear packaging from boxes.I cover the folder part in scrap booking paper. I attach the non cut part to the board.
4. I made seats by cutting the top and a side off of a cardboard box.
5.  I cover it in red velvety fabric.I made the concession stand by laying a cardboard box on its side. I cover it in colorful computer paper. I cut out the main focus of a popcorn box or bag, and I tape it to the box. I write the menu on an index card, and I tape it on.
6. To make a 2-d popcorn box, I cut off the sides of a popcorn box. I cut it off at about midway.
7. To make nuts, I shaped small bits of terra cotta clay into nuggets. I glazed them before they dried to make them look fried. I put the nuts in a plastic food sample cup.
8. To make a plate of nachos, I start by cutting a plastic pillbox in half. On mine, the plastic was soft, So it could be cut as easy as cardboard. This is the plate. To make the chips, I cut small pieces of felt and layered them. I cut a chip shape out of the felt. I rubbed ti let the chips go loose on the plate. To make the cheese, I mix yellow watercolor paint with Kid safe clay glaze (The kid safe part is not so important, but it would be a waste to use polymer glaze.) I mix until it looks like nacho cheese, And i paint it on the chips. Before it dries, I add bits of foam for toppings.
9. I use beads and shortened straws for candy.

Enjoy making your dolls some cool snacks and a brand new theater!
