Paper Plate Yarn Heart

-




I just love simple crafts with the kids that are quick to complete and use supplies I have already and this is one of those great little projects.

My turn at a paper plate yarn heart.

This is the first time I have attempted something like this with my 4 year old.  She was super excited to do the project after watching the how-to video (see below). The craft was a little too old for her, but with lots of help from mummy we have something that she is really happy with.

My 4 year old's paper plate yarn heart.

I think this project would look great with red yarn too - especially for Valentines day.  Use a card instead and you would have a lovely Valentine's day card.

Mummy and daughter's paper plate yarn hearts look great on the door of my daughter's bedroom.
We were inspired to do this craft thanks to Lincraft's video (below). They are starting to produce some great craft content as they try to connect with their customers online. Their projects are a great mix of projects for adults and children so check out their blog or YouTube channel for some inspiration for your next project.

Make a Doll's Wardrobe

Coat-hangers often come with doll's clothing, but what are you supposed to do with them? Make a doll's wardrobe of course! In this post I'll take you through a project I worked on with my daughter to make a wardrobe for her Barbie's clothes. You can make one to suit any doll, you just need to choose a box that is the appropriate size for the coat-hangers and clothes.

What you will need:
Cardboard boxesScissors Wooden skewerHot glue gun (adult use only)Washable paintPaintbrushGemstone stickers (or similar to make handles) Washable PVA GlueMasking tape Newspaper to protect surfacesSmock Instructions:
Keep an eye on the cardboard boxes coming into your home for one that would be suitable for a doll's wardrobe. You might be lucky and find something with flaps that can be used for the doors or you may have to attach doors yourself. Ideally you don't want to be taping a hinge on as this doesn't make for a sturdy join. Instead, look for something with a fold in it …
