Doll-box: a master class. Stage of manufacturing and decoration of the bottom of the PET bottle
Using a clerical knife in a plasticcontainer cut off the top with a lid. Its height should be 10 centimeters. The neck is also cut off. From the bottom of the bottle we measure 10 centimeters. Cut off the "glass". From it we will form the lower part of the casket.
We proceed to registration. From paper, we make circular patterns with a diameter of 7 cm, 7.5 cm, 8 cm, 8.5 cm. We transfer them to batting and fabric. From crepe-satin we cut out two circles - 8 and 8.5 cm in diameter. From the batting we make circles according to the patterns of 7 and 7.5 cm. Then we prepare the rectangular shapes. From the fabric, we cut out details with dimensions of 45 x 20 cm and 35 x 20 cm.
On the biggest circle of crepe-satin we imposebillet from the batting 7,5 cm in diameter. Grasping both these details with a needle, sew a rectangular cut. When performing this action, we attach the fabric with uniform folds. The result is a bag with a round bottom. Similarly, we sew together smaller pieces. How to make a doll-box from a plastic bottle next? We learn from the instruction.
The front side of the round part of the first baggrease with glue from the thermopile and attach to the bottom inside the "cup" from the plastic bottle. Smooth and smooth the fabric with your fingers. Next, we apply glue material to the walls of the container and in the same way attach the side parts of the bag. When the whole inner surface of the part is framed, we throw the remaining fabric behind its sides and fill it under the outer bottom.
Similarly, the second part ofplastic bottle. For its decoration, a second pouch (smaller in size) is used. Here, the rest of the fabric is removed to the outside and temporarily tied with an elastic band or thread.
Stage dress decorating
Further, a doll-box, a master class onthe manufacture of which you are studying, must "put on" a magnificent outfit. We will perform it from nylon lace. We sew it, attaching it with uniform folds, along the bottom edge of the "cup". The next frill is done at a distance of 1-1.5 centimeters up from the first. Take care that the bottom edge of this rucosa closes the seam of the previous one. So we sew the necessary number of frills. Performing them, alternate the lace of white and blue. By the same technology, ruches and the second part of the plastic billet.
Next, remove the knot on the top part. We remove the feet from the doll and glue it to the place where the bottle had a neck. Try to attach the parts securely. On this depends how long the box will last. Now the place of connection of the doll with the plastic must be zadekorirovat. Take a lace cut of 30 centimeters long and sew it, folding it, to the satin ribbon. Tie the received skirt to the waist of the pupa.
The next stage of making crafts isdecoration of the top of the doll dress. The fabric peeping out from under the lace is cut off from above by the necessary dimensions, covering Barbie's chest. We sew the edges of the textile so that they are not worn. We decorate them with lace. We glue the top of the dress to the pupa's body.
Making a hat
In an elegant headdress will be displayedour Barbie doll (casket). We will carry it out with our own hands. To do this, satin ribbon length of 30 centimeters is collected on a string and tightened. In the center, leave a hole about 2 cm in diameter. The edges of the tape are sewn together. We collect the hair of the pupa in the tail, pass it through the hole in the cap. To keep the headdress firmly, on the inside, apply a few small drops of glue on it and attach it to the hair. Straighten the hairstyle and the folds on the bonnet.
Final touches: design of the stand and connection of parts
How to make a doll-box,the master class for the manufacture of which was given to your attention, was it sustainable? To do this, take the metal cover from the can and tighten it with crepe-satin. The inside of this part is lubricated with glue and we attach the bottom of the lower plastic blank to it.
Now we connect both parts of the product by sewing one to the other. Carry out this attachment in the place where the doll has a back.
Zadekoririte the box beads and small satin flowers, pasting them to the dress and hair of the doll. That's all. The original and very beautiful casket for storing jewelry is ready.
Doll-box "The Bride"
This version of the product can be excellenta bridal gift for a bridal shower or on a wedding day. Inside the box you can put some little present or money. We will carry out this craft from plastic deep plates. We need two of them. In addition, we prepare a small pupa, white satin, nylon lace of the same color, thread, needle, thin foam, decorative ornaments and a thermo-gun.
Description of the work process
Plastic plates are pasted with foam rubber withinternal and external sides. At the doll, we remove our legs and cut off the lower part of the trunk with a sharp clerical knife. On one of the plates cut out a hole in foam rubber, fill it with glue. We insert the doll with a cut downwards and hold it with your hand until the glue grabs.
Next, we tighten the satin fabric and the upper, andthe bottom of the product. We decorate them with lace in the same way as described in the previous master class. We decorate the dress and the inner surface of the upper part of the casket with beads, paillettes, small ribbons.
Since the product is made in the form of a bride doll,she needs to make a veil on her head. To do this, we sew lace among themselves in two or three tiers. Then attach it to a narrow satin ribbon of white color, forming wrinkles. We decorate with small flowers, beads, beads. We tie the veil under the hair of the pupa. We fasten both parts of the product together, stitching them in one place along the top edge. That's all. It remains to put a small surprise inside the casket and go to congratulate the bride.
