A Come Back

Finally decided to come back blogging after stopping for more than 1.5 years as it's such a pity to see all the nice pictures kept in my phone/laptop gone to waste. After all, the talkative Aki inside me has a lot to share and I'd really like to see how myself react reading my own posts 10 years down the road. So yup, stay tuned to the pretty pictures :)

[DIY] Adorable Dolls from every Little Thing Market

Went to Every Little Thing Market by Public Garden with Kaiyin a few weeks ago. Different from flea market at Scape, it is a 'judged' flea market, meaning that the organisers look through what you are planning to sell before approving you to join the 'league'. Public Garden gathers independent businesses and creative individuals so expect unique items that can't be found else where ;)

I got myself this adorable printed felt to make dolls::

There are a lot designs to choose from but I only got a sheet as I want to try out first and the price is quite steep... SGD14.90 for one and the size is around 30cmx20cm.

They also sell ready-made dolls that come in set, so if you like the dolls but not a fan of arts & crafts, grab them =)

The cutest little pink bunny girl ever ;)

To turn the cute felt into dolls, you'll need::

1. Printed felt (duh...)

2. Polyester fiber (I got it from Daiso)

3. Scissors

4. Needle and threads

5. Any deco you want to add on to the already-very-cute felt (I didn't use any as I was plainly lazy; you can sew gems/studs/beads/etc on them to create a more expensive sophisticated look)

Steps::

1. Cut out all the printings based on the trace lines given.

2. Sew the front and the back of the dolls together.

Important:: Don't combine the 2 felts completely before stuffing the fiber into their 'stomachs'!

3. Complete the sewing.

4. Sew the 'accessories' on the dolls based on your preference.
