Make it Monday-Halloween Hair Bands


Make it Monday October 15th 2012





















Halloween is right around the corner and while I was at Wal-Mart I found the most adorable candy corn duct tape. Their small design made me think they would be perfect for making Halloween Hair bands for our dolls. This craft can be done with any Duck tape and can be made in a group or party setting for very little investment.


















To make your own Halloween Hair band for your doll you will need:
-Duck tape (I used Candy Corn print)
-3/4 inch elastic, you will need 4 inches per hair band
-scissors
-a ruler
-you doll to wear the hair band.









Step 1- Each 18 inch doll head requires a hair band that measures 10 inches around.  So you will need to measure and cut 4 inches of elastic and 6 inches of tape.
Step 2- Lay your tape sticky side up and place one end of the elastic on the end. Fold over one side of the tape towards the middle. Carefully bend the other end of the elastic to the other end of the tape creating a circle as you go, fold over the the remaining tape to secure the elastic ends in place.















Step 3- reinforce the elastic where it meets the tape with another small piece of tape as shown in the photos above. Make sure to wrap the tape so that the folded edges are on the underneath of your hair band.



























Step 4- Place the hair band on your dolls head and make some for your friends!
I hope you enjoyed today’s Make it Monday craft, I look forward to sharing more craft ideas with you again soon.~ Karen Owen aka Karen Mo

Halloween Witch Hat - FREE Pattern


So halloween is my favorite Holiday, my house is decorated all over and I decided my dolls need a little fun too. I have always thought this was a cute pattern but never tried it, so today I pulled out some leftover fabrics and feathers and voila !
Cute hat for my Kit doll. (Click on the picture and you can see all the details better)

So the feathers are from Hobby Lobby, and the little green spider button is from JoAnns in their dollar pile. (4/$1.00) They have other colors too. 

It was a very quick sew, and would also make a cute shelf decoration for a 
Halloween setting, 
or a great party favor for an 
American Girl Doll Halloween Party.

Happy Sewing !
