DIY Potted Plant

I said what I meant, and I meant what I said. Tody's craft is a potted plant! This is a craft all ready for spring!


MATERIALS YOU WILL NEED:
-Glue dots
-Brown foam
- Orange, yellow or red pipe cleaner (1)
- Green pipe cleaner (1)
- Scissors
Ready?

1) Cut out two rectangles from brown foam, both the same length. Now cut a rectangle half the length of the two long rectangles:

2) The small rectangle will be the bottom of the pot. Insert some glue dots around the outline of the bottom of the pot. When you are done, take the long rectnagles (the walls of the pot) and bend them around the four sides of the small rectangle:


3) Now bend the green pipe cleaner around like grass (I had to use two green pipe cleaners):

4) Glue dot this into the pot, and form a small flower shape from the orange pipe

5) Glue dot this as well ontop of the plant...


VoilĂ ! There is your doll's potted plant! :)
 I decided to take some photots of Morgan:





 It was so much fun, and I am happy to share them with you all!

Chocolate-Granola-Yogurt-Fruit-Deliciousness Recipe!

I have got admit, I have been doing doll food posts lately... I promise to stop and head on with "miscellaneous" crafts. 
Anywho:
   

Morgan adores this yogurt parfait when she is getting ready for ballet!
I love the old ballet outfit from AG, my parents got it in New York during one of my ballet preformances when I was little!
MATERIALS YOU WILL NEED:
-White paint/glue (both work well for yogurt)
-Brown paint to add a yummy layer of chocolate!
-Cardboard for granola
-Scissors 
-fruit cut out from magazine
-And small clear cup

 

 (Not all materials included)
Lets get started!

1) Start by drizzling a layer of white paint.


2) Next, cut small bits from cardboard for the granola:


3) Continue this a couple times. I chose to add a layer of chocolate(brown paint) but this is optional.
4) Once you are satisfied with the latter, cut out photos of fruit from a magazine. You can make them more life-like by putting foam underneath. Sprinkle these on top:

Finished result! ^^^^

This is a great treat, and I hope your doll enjoyed it as well!

Bye!

Choco-LATE!

Hi! Sorry I have missed a couple of days-- I was resting from a cold. Everything is starting to warm up outside at my house, and Morgan can't wait for spring! We have started to see squirrels, rabbits, and birds come out...



BUT of course it has started to rain and get muddy. 

Ahem! Enough of that, let's get back to our daily craft!!

Delicious! 
The materials you will need:
-Brown craft foam
-Aluminum foil 
-Sharpie
-Glue or glue dots
- And scissors

STEPS TO TAKE:

1) Take the craft foam and cut a rectangle shape. It depends on how big you want the chocolate bar, so I cannot really tell you the measurements. 
2) Now, draw a line through the middle of the rectangle with the sharpie. Start cutting- with the sharpie- the rectangle into little squares.
3) Either skip to step 5, or continue to step 4 if you want your choco bar to be more life-like.
4) Cut these squares and cut another rectangle, preferably the same size. Paste these squares on the rectangle:
5) Next, cut out some aluminum foil, enough to wrap the bar around once or twice. 


6) Take a end of the foil, and bend it on the chocolate bar. 


7) Now completly wrap the foil around. If there is extra space on the right and left sides, you can fold them


8) You will now take the sharpie and write something like: "Choco Bar".


Mmm- DELICIOUS!!


Enjoy!

Yay!! C-E-L-E-B-R-A-T-E!

Yay!


Happy Bday, Morg!!! :)
Morgan insists that we should wait until Katelyn comes for the party to open all her presents. Well, I agree. You are the boss of your own birthday, so be it! 
My mother and I were busy making cookies for a friend, so I made two little cookies for Morgan:
:) I honestly think we should open up a bakery, with all the fun we had baking them!
Today's craft...

Honey is tempted to reach out and gobble up the cake pop!

MATERIALS YOU WILL NEED FOR THIS CRAFT...
- A pom pom of any size and color
-A lollipop stick or toothpick
- Glue dots or glue
- Some beads for sprinkles
- And scissors, just in case.

1) Attach a glue dot onto the pom pom, then attach the toothpick to the glue dot on the pom pom.


2) Now add 2-3 glue dots on the top of the pom pom


3) So you can add some small beads on for sprinkles!


And that's all there is to it!

Hoped you enjoyed the craft!!!!

Yum- Chocolate (and perhaps cheese!) covered Strawberries!

Morgan is very excited as tomorrow (Monday) comes near. I just hope she doesn't wake me up at 12:00 AM tonight! 


Ah, a pasttime of mine. I remember my mother making them for my birthday party! 
So I will pass this down to you and your doll(s) 

DIY CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRIES
-Red, yellow-tannish, and brown foam needed
-AND a pair of scissors!


1) Cut out a trianglish shape from the red craft foam


2) Now cut out a brown triangle the same WIDTH of the red traingle BUT not the same length- about half the length of the red triangle. 


3) Paste this on- I have sticky- sided foam, so I don't need glue.  


.
4) Cut a long, thin strip of the yellowish foam.
5) Cut this strip into small pieces like so.


6) Paste the little squares on the red part left out of the red triangle. 
And there you go.
Morgan and I hope you enjoyed this sweet treat. It looks a bit like cheese was sprinkled on the strawberry, though! ; )
PS:Pssst! My friend, and owner of Katelyn, Oreo3418, may become the co author of this blog! More details soon!

Mmmm- CANDY!

Yes. I know. It is NOT Halloween. Don't worry, I knew that. But why not eat a candy, or share it with a friend, for any occassion, or for no occassion at all? 

Make Your own Wrapped Up Candy!
What you will need...
Some clear wrap (the kind used in the kitchen) or any kind of clear wrapping paper
Beads

1) This, I have to admit, is pretty easy. Take the bead and place it in the middle of the clear wrap


2) Now, grab one end (the top or bottom parts of the wrap) and wind it around the bead like so...


3) Repeat step 2 again so it looks like this


4) Lastly, twist the exposed sides (east and west) to make it look more wrapped up.


Ta da! :) 
I hope you and your doll enjoyed doing this craft. Try different combinations with different kinds of beads. I own some donut- shaped beads, and I glued 4 of those together. They look like a pack of Lifesavers! 

Morgan is craving for some sweets!

Bye!

IPads!

Hello! I have also decided to give Morg a iPad for her bday. What better fun than to make it myself???
With super helpful technology, I made my own iPads!!! Here they are..











:) I dunno which one to give to Morgan. The last one, the flower background, was requested by my friend, whose the owner of Katelyn. I hope Katelyn will enjoy it!!! 

Meanwhile, Morgan is setting out the birthday party food table, though the party won't happen for about a week! 



I tried a silly little hairstyle on her hair. It is kinda wacky!





I have also moved her kitchen up to my living room...




And lastly, I made fruit from those little paper fruit toppers:


Bye!
