Tons of craft ideas for doll accessories!

Postby embyquinn » Thu Jan 05, 2012 1:58 am

I was cruising YouTube tonight and stumbled across a nifty (and VERY easy!) tutorial for a desktop computer for a 1/6 doll.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJLRL9SH_eM

I loved her tutorial so much I went looking at her channel. She has a Facebook page, an Etsy shop (sadly bare for the moment) and loads of ideas for accessories, furniture and even clothing and shoes for tinies, 1/6, and 1/4 dolls. Definitely worth checking out!

I actually saw things I'd already figured out for myself (particularly in the "recycling" ideas) and I absolutely love her attitude and vibe. Go, look, love, like, create!

It's like magic! The washer/dryer idea is ingenious!

All of her ideas are just amazing. I really love how she uses stuff that would normally be found in any house and just thrown away--empty cereal boxes, disposable razors, applesauce containers, bottlecaps, Q-tips--and turns them into the most wonderful miniature things! Best of all, it doesn't take huge amounts of artistic talent to make these things--just, in some cases, a fair amount of duct tape--but if you are of an artistic bent, you can use her concepts as a springboard to even more incredible accessories!

I love her stuff. So much.

I tried finding non-video tutorials but they're all videos right?

Her blog has a couple of photo tutorials, but they're mostly videos, yes.
