Presents twenty projects for making clothing and accessories for dolls, including a bathing suit and beach bag, jewelry, bulletin board, and clothes closet.
Crafts are part of imaginative play in this lively addition to the Girl Crafts series. Ross, the author of more than 40 craft books, presents 20 projects with clear directions for "what you need" (simple household items from paper clips, cardboard, and yarn to sand and crayons) and "what you do." Garvin's simple line-and-watercolor illustrations show the materials and the process, step by step. Some projects are miniature versions of what kids can make for themselves (sock puppets, a scrapbook, handprints on plaster, etc.). Others are especially for dolls, including doll jewelry and a doll closet made from a cardboard box. The blend of make-believe and practical advice is a winning combination in a craft book.
