There are 2 things that I always have
on hand – one is pretty scrapbook paper and the other is silk flowers. Silk
flowers are great for craft projects (in fact, I think all of my upcoming
projects will use them!) and they tend to go on sale fairly regularly at craft
stores. Another great source for cheap silk flowers is the dollar store.
So I’ve had this thought for a while
that silk flower petals would make great fairy skirts, and I had a vague memory
of seeing small fairies made with pipe cleaners and large wooden beads. So
after a quick search of the internet I found this great tutorial on Treasures
for Tots for making quick and adorable fairies: http://treasuresfortots.blogspot.com/2009/10/how-to-make-tiny-fairy-doll.html
I was thrilled to discover that I had
all the supplies needed on hand and was even more excited by how easy they were
to make – one fairy took less than 30 minutes!
Supplies:- Pipe cleaners (light colors are best but anything will work
- Wooden beads
- Embroidery floss (I have a large multicolor pack that I bought on sale – I used off white for the “skin” and yellow for the hair)
- Felt for dress and wings – I used regular soft felt for the dress and stiff glitter felt for the wings. Treasures for Tots has a template but, as per usual, I eyeballed it!
- Ribbon
- Hot glue gun
- Silk flowers with medium to large petals (optional: small silk flowers for flower hats)
- Scissors
Step 2: Thread “hair” through the loop above the bead and then pull loop down halfway through the bead. Twist to secure
Step 3: Shape pipe cleaner into body
Step 4: Tie embroidery floss under the
bead (around the neck) and begin wrapping the top part of the pipe cleaner arm –
don’t worry if the pipe cleaner “fuzz” sticks out a bit!
Step 5: Once you get to the end of the
arm, fold the wrapped and unwrapped parts of the arms together and begin
wrapping them together, heading back towards the body
Step 6: Repeat process with the other
arm and then make your way down the body, using the same technique to wrap the
legs
Step 7: Cut out dress and wings – like
I said, I eyeballed this because I knew the majority of my dress was going to
be covered by flowers
Step 8: Silk flower skirt – be as
creative as you want to be with this part! I pulled apart 2 silk flowers and
cut out the petals and hot glued them onto the felt dress. I then tied a ribbon
around her waist to cover the tops of the petals.
Step 9: Glue on the wings
Step 10: Finishing touches – I used a
black permanent marker to draw a basic “two eyes and a smile” face and used the
hot glue gun to glue the top of her hair to the bead and then braided it. Then
I stuck a small flower into the top of the bead as a flower hat.
They have been a huge hit with H and
she’s asked me to make more. She even took one in to school for show and tell.
When
H asked me why they have flower hats, I explained that it’s so they can hide in
the flowers:
Next week’s project: the fairy house….
Oh I love this post so much!! I actually have a kit for these kind of fairies that my mom bought me when I was pregnant. I just found it today and I will totally be making them. You did such a great job with this!!!
