It's... it's a very sad day. Not only was the Nutcracker called off, but it's.. it's the last CCC. *wails*
(she's totally epic, ya'll. Her contact on the phone I use to text her is literally 'the epic madi')
There's been a week for décor, food, clothing, and now... gifts!
Today's craft, the DIY No-Sew Doll apron, is absolutely perfect for the doll who loves to bake! Actually, Grace and Josie made this one for their awesome friend Gabby!
Ready to find out how you can make this absolutely adorable apron?
Let's do it!
Just warning you, though, this was around midnight and I used my sister's phone. *cringes* Bad idea.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YOU WILL NEED:
all of my favorite things
just kidding... kinda. If you've crafted with me all month, you'll know my favorite crafting supplies:
hot glue gun (PLEASE do this with an adult's permission... unless it's around midnight)
felt (red, white, green)
scissors
embellishments (like mini pom-poms!)
red cord (at least 24 inches)
optional: mini cookie cutters (I got these from Hobby Lobby - aaammaaaaazing store!)
The first step is to cut a rectangle of green felt about uhh.. *racks brain to remember how long* eight inches by four? Yeah. Let's go with that. And then you'll need a 24 in. strand of cord. Hot glue the cord onto the felt and fold the felt over for a cleaner edge (also hot glue that.. with permission of course.).
Cut a 4x2 in. rectangle and a 4x1 in. rectangle. Hot glue three sides (two sides and bottom) of the 4x2 to create a pocket. For the flap, just glue the top of the 4x1 in. above the 4x2. Or, just look at the picture and avoid getting confused.
Add POM POMSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS LOTS OF THEM LOTS OF THE PRETTY SHINY THINGIES! *tosses mini pompoms into the air* YAY FOR POM POMS!
Yeah. I like those things. I added some along the bottom and the flap. Ta-da! Isn't it just adorable?!?!
This is great for making Christmas cookies, or gingerbread houses...
As an extra little surprise, I added some of these mini cookie cutters.
So, craft this little apron and wrap it up for your baker!
Merry Christmas (almost)!
Oh, and hey - don't forget to email photos of any of the CCC crafts you've done (2016 or 2017, mine or Madi's) to
dollsnall4ever@gmail.com! (Madi's email is on her blog. :D)
AHHH THAT'S SO CUTE! I know my Josefina would love this.
ReplyDelete"Or, just look at the picture and avoid getting confused." XDDD THAT'S EXACTLY SOMETHING I'D SAY IT'S PERFECT. XDD
By the way, did anyone send you any pictures of crafts of yours or mine they've done? Are we BOTH doing CCC recaps on Christmas Eve or what? I have mine already typed up and scheduled (just updating it now with this craft) but wanted to make sure in case you had any other ideas.

SHE WOULD SO MAKE IT. :D :D :D
DeleteIKR?! I was rereading it and I went: Wait, what? XD XD XD So yeah. The photo is more self-explanatory anyways. XD XD XD
One awesome person. :D We can... or you can. *smirks* I'd be happy to let you do the honors. I've got the DOTM post tomorrow, so you can totally do it if you want. :) I'll send you the pic, if you so desire...
I LOVE THAT APRON!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sending me one! :D :D :D
This is soooooooooo adorable!!! Next we need an Easter apron. And a 4th of July apron. Maybe Josie & I need matching aprons. ;) I think I might have some fabric from mine left over.... :)
