Turn Summertime into craft time! Today I wanted to share my favorite doll crafts for Summer to give you some ideas. First, bring the vacation to your doll with this colorful Hawaiian flower lei. You can pretend she's soaking up the sun's rays in Hawaii! :)
Every doll needs new sandals to wear! I love this easy craft (pattern included!).
Shield her pretty eyes from the sun with a stylish sun visor.
Summer isn't complete without some treats! Make your doll a delicious ice cream cone.
Or, if she's more into ice cream sandwiches make her one of those instead! ;)
Doing any Summer reading? Use a handmade American Girl Bookmark to hold your place. (You could make a matching bookmark for your doll too!)
Keep her cool with a fancy fan, a craft inspired by Samantha & Nellie's time period.
Your doll can carry this bright pineapple purse with her on Summer trips.
While at the beach, she might run into a cute crab friend! But, be careful to avoid the pinchers! ;)
Have a Summer cookout! Make yummy hamburgers for your doll's to munch on.
For dessert, they can have ooey gooey S'mores!
Decorate her room or back porch with a cactus plant!
Your doll may enjoy a snow cone on a hot day or during a trip to a Summer festival. :)
Make her a souvenir seashell necklace to dress up her outfit!
Last but not least, make another Summer favorite...a freezer pop! (Or, you can try a traditional popsicle.) There are so many flavors to choose from!
If you do any of these crafts, I'd LOVE to see! You can send me a picture to [email protected] or tag me on Instagram @creativedollcrafts
Have fun & happy crafting! :)
