DIY Week #4

Howdy! It's time for another DIY for DIY week! Have you all been enjoying this series? Well, I hope you did and will continue to!

Today we will learn how to make...A Doll-Sized Frame!

A frame can add so much more feeling to you dollhouse. What this tuorial will teach you to make is just practically a frame. What you can do is print a picture of your doll and add it behind the frame and then add it to your dollhouse or any wall! Let's see how to make this, shall we?


What you will need:



- 4 Giant Popsicle Sticks
- Hot glue gun
- Spray Paint 





How to make it


 Lay one Popsicle stick on top of another one, and glue it into place. Repeat for all the others.



The completed product! 


Is that a guilty grin I see on Esther's face? lol

Sorry for a kind of lame DIY.  But it is kind of nice, if you're thinking about it in the same way I am...haha....




DIY Week #3

Wow! It's been a success all week so far! All of your sweet comments make feel really happy about this! Thank you SOOOO much!!

Moving on to today's DIY....



 Today we will learn how to make..... A Doll-Sized Clipboard!


 What you will need:

 ~Scissors 
~Cardboard (not the thick kind. Just cut up a old cereal box, it works!)
~Notebook paper 
~Binder Clip (black works too!)

How to make it

 Cut the size of the clipboard that you'll want on the cardboard. This goes by the size of your doll, I would recommend just estimating.

This is how it ought to be.



Then fold your notebook paper sheet in half. Lay your cardboard on it and cut out 3 rectangles/squares/ etc. that fit on your cardboard.

See?

Then you'll want to attach the binder clip to secure the notebook paper and the cardboard together.

Ta-da! A brand new clipboard for your doll to carry around!



Did you like it? What did you think? Will you make it?
