How to Make Dolls

Hi Everyone! 

I have a little paper crafts project that I want to share with you.  Its a simple arts and crafts project that I made out of a pizza box.  It is a cardboard doll.  Its very simple to make and would be great for easy crafts.  You can make them in any size, shape, or color.

You can even change the hair color and eye colors also.  This would also be safe for kids crafts because you don't have to use hot glue for this project.  Another thing is that it is very inexpensive because you are using recycled crafts.  You can use any type of thin cardboard.  Save your pizza boxes and TV Dinner boxes.  They are great for making these handmade dolls.  This would also be great for creative crafts because you can take the doll and dress it up anyway you would like to.  This is also great for scrapbooking because you can use scrapbook paper.  Maybe make a miniature doll to include in your scrapbook or with a greeting card to a friend.

God bless, Chan
