Valentines Craft!

 I thought it would be fun to use some of my duct tape from Christmas and make a couple of things. My step mom and I went through my duct tape book and found out how jazz up some old picture frames and that got my mind thinking.

Supplies

  • duct tape
  • scissors
  • a picture of your doll
  • a paper bag or cardboard (optional)
  • clear plastic wrap (optional)



  1.  make a square of duct tape 


2. add plastic wrap on the back of the duct tape (optional)

 3. Take a picture out of a magazine or print on and stick it on top of the plastic wrap
 4. put duct tape over it to secure it
 5. add cardboard or a piece of a paper bag over the picture to make it stiff so it won't be flimsy
6. fold over the duct tape that makes up the frame
this is what it should look like
The final product! Sorry about the glare. 

I hope you had fun with this! If you recreated this project send us pictures on Instagram with the #luvofdollscraft or email us pics with the subject LuvOfDolls craft.

5 add duct tape to the bottom of the spool that has paper on the other side
 6 stick the toilet paper roll to the duct tape 
7 add more duct tape and add a small piece of cardboard to the bottom to make it stand up

Back to school! How to make a doll folder!

Supplies! 
Duct tape
scissors
the keep and return labels ( at the end of this post)













  1.  cut four strips the same length (I prefer about 3 and a half inches)

 2. fold 2 together and try to make them more even than I did :)
 3. take the 2 sets that you folded together and lay them on top of each other

 just like this. Now take an other 4 pieces and repeat steps 1 and 2 for the pocket
4. now lay the 2 out flat on top of a piece of duct tape, where the duct tape is in the middle of the 2
5. make sure that the tape isn't showing through like in the picture below
 6. printout these labels or make your own for the pockets inside.
 Here is how mine turned out. I made my labels with my typewriter.
 The inside.

Here is Caroline with the folder.




Hope you love it!

LUV YA!!!
