1. Dreadlocks

You will need:

• Yarn
• Needle

How to do it:

• Cut or remove the doll’s original hair.
• Cut yarn strips to the desired hair length and, with the help of the needle, insert them one by one into the doll’s head.
• Continue until the entire head is covered.

2. Headphones

You will need:

• Bottle cap ring
• Hot glue
• Glitter
• Pop-it or similar circular mold

How to do it:

• In the circular mold, start by adding a bit of glitter and then fill it up with hot glue.
• Before it dries, insert each end of the bottle cap ring into the hot glue, then let it dry.
• Once it’s dry, carefully remove from the mold.

3. Skis

You will need:

• Popsicle sticks
• Hairband
• Hot glue
• Paints

How to do it:

• First, we will paint the popsicle sticks in the colors and patterns we like.
• Then, in the center of each popsicle stick, apply a small oval of hot glue and attach the hairband to the stick.
• Allow it to dry thoroughly before using.

4. Sunglasses

You will need:

• Disposable cup
• Black marker
• Scissors

How to do it:

• Use the marker to draw the part of the cup that you’ll use to create the sunglasses.
• Once the color has dried, cut out the sunglasses shape.
• Decorate the sunglass arms to your liking.

5. False Nails

You will need:

• Hot glue gun
• Nail clippers or scissors
• Nail polish

How to do it:

• Place a drop of hot glue on the doll’s finger and stretch it to create the nail shape.
• Trim them to your desired length.
• Paint them with your preferred nail polish color.

6. Ice Skates

You will need:

• Doll boots
• Glitter
• White glue and hot glue
• Paperclip

How to do it:

• Dip the doll boots into white glue and then roll them in glitter.
• Allow them to dry completely before moving on to the next step, which involves applying hot glue to the sole of the boot and attaching the paperclip.
• Once again, let it dry thoroughly before using.

7. Peel-off Mask

You will need:

• White glue
• Glitter

How to do it:

• Mix a small amount of white glue with a bit of glitter.
• Once the mixture has a consistent appearance, apply it to the doll’s face using a brush.
• Let it dry for a few minutes; once dry, it will be ready to be removed from the doll’s face.

8. Earrings

You will need:

• Thin wire
• Beads

How to do it:

• To make a hanging earring, create a loop in the wire.
• If you want the earring to be a small hoop, cut both ends.
• If you want them to be long, cut only one end and decorate the other with beads and stones.

9. Flip-flops

You will need:

• 3D or hot glue gun
• Straw or pen

How to do it:

• Use the glue gun to create the base of the flip-flop.
• Once it’s dry, place the straw on it to help you create the top part of the flip-flop.

10. Temporary Hair Dye

You will need:

• Water
• Colored highlighter markers

How to do it:

• Dampen the doll’s hair slightly and comb it to remove any tangles.
• Starting from the roots and moving towards the tips, begin coloring the hair using the highlighter markers.
• You can color it with a single color or blend more than one to create fun and trendy designs.
