Instructions in 4 steps Wooden dolly pegs, satin ribbon, baker's twine and a bit of paint - that's all you need for these magical little dolls. And this is how it works:

Step 1

Firstly, paint the upper part with the all-purpose paint in hot-pink colour (or light gray) and let it dry out.

Step 2

Then unravel the cut baker's twine intended for the skirt in order to get single threads. Spread the threads out in the centre along a length of 5 cm and glue them onto the satin ribbon with craft glue. Now let the glue applied on skirt dry out and stick it firmly all around the doll.

Step 3

Then unravel the brown/white baker's twine. Only the brown yarns must be used for the hair by lining them up next to each other and by fixing them transversely with the parting. Then glue the hair onto doll’s head and make two plaits each tied with a small bow (or glue the lined-up brown yarns onto doll’s head to create long-lasting hairdo and decorate it with a small hair bow).
