Grace's classic side braid needed a little Christmas style! Using ribbon is one of my favorite (and inexpensive!) ways to make doll hair look totally different. Here's how you can do this style on your doll...
First cut a long piece of ribbon, it should be longer than 12 inches so you have more to work with. Separate your doll's hair in three sections and tie the ribbon to the hair section closest to your doll's forehead (you could also use a bobby pin to hold the ribbon in place). After you've done that, begin to braid. I crossed the over the right section (the hair with the ribbon), over the middle section. Then the left section over the middle section and so on. Tie off the braid and cut off any excess ribbon and cut another piece of ribbon to tie into a bow for the end. And, you're done!!
I love how the red with polka dot ribbon pops with Grace's dark hair! :)
Her dress from OliviaWear.Com goes so well with it too! She is definitely ready for a Christmas party. :)
If you try out this hairstyle on your doll, I'd LOVE to see! Feel free to send me a picture to [email protected]
Happy holiday styling! :)
