I did enjoy the pegdoll book by Margaret Bloom. I decided to make a nativity scene. I'd been given some lovely felt last year, and I had some wooden dolls in my Stash
Kezzie had sent me some bamboo food boxes, and one [cut down] made a little stable.
Two interlocking rectangles made a manger. I stuck a wooden craft star onto a bbq skewer. Two 'pony beads' stuck on the back of the stable held the stick in place, but it could be removed for storage.
It is delightful. I had seen these peg dolls in the gallery shop in Sheffield and had thought I might make my daughters an angel each, but then wondered if they might be too difficult...then I saw the book on your recent post and will try and find it to have a go next year.
ReplyDeleteCheck out the library for her book. Webloomhere is the name of her blog. There are also online templates. The Works sell little packs of pegs for £1 . Do have a go, it is not difficult at all, and very satisfying.
