8 DIYs For an 18″ Doll

December 7, 2015 by Larissa Coleman Leave a Comment

The holiday season is just around the corner, and for many children, 18″ dolls are at the top of their wish lists. However, buying all the accessories and clothes for these dolls can be a costly endeavor. That’s why many parents are turning to DIY projects to make their own doll accessories at a fraction of the cost. Not only is it a more affordable option, but it also allows for creativity and customization.

Whether you’re an experienced DIYer or just starting, these 8 ideas for DIY 18″ doll accessories are sure to inspire you. From clothing and accessories to furniture and decor, there’s something for everyone to try. And the best part? You can customize each item to match your child’s unique style and preferences.

One of the easiest DIY projects for 18″ dolls is clothing. Instead of purchasing expensive outfits, try making them yourself. You can use old clothes or scraps of fabric to create one-of-a-kind outfits that your child will love. Additionally, making your own clothes allows you to customize the fit and style to match your child’s preferences.

Accessories are another fun and easy DIY project for 18″ dolls. From purses and backpacks to hats and scarves, the possibilities are endless. Using materials such as felt, yarn, and ribbon, you can create accessories that are both stylish and functional.

If you’re feeling ambitious, try making some furniture or decor for your child’s dollhouse. Using wood, cardboard, or even recycled materials, you can create miniature versions of real furniture or come up with your own unique designs. It’s a fun way to add some personality to your child’s dollhouse while also honing your DIY skills.
