Christmas is almost here and I just finished making this rather cute and simplistic Elf on a Shelf doll. The arms and legs and hat are made from socks. I think the body could be made from a sock as well, but I used skin tone fabric. Here is the pattern I whipped together for this project.

DIY Hello Kitty Mascot Head

2014-05-31T22:35:00.001-04:00

I made this head using the guide from Instructables: 'How to Create an Affordable Mascot Head' by user 'edgukated'. Although I made my head bigger the the guide indicated.

Notes about this project:

cut styrofoam is very static-y and sticks to EVERYTHING and clogs vacuums.
styrofoam is a lot heavier then it looks when it's on your head
if putting in a hard hat into the mascot head, I recommend one with a chin strap, because it's hard to move and emote without one (kinda clunks around)
seeing and breathing through a tiny hole in the front of your head is super hard to do. would not recommend this head style for a halloween party or dim lighting
make sure you have room to store the head.. cause it takes up a lot of space when finished!
everyone love hello kitty.. so be prepaired to make lots of friends! I even got a marriage proposal :)

More dolls please

Here's a little freebie 8x10 printable for ya. Would look cute in a frame, or modge podged onto a wood plaque. For modge podge you have to use a laser printout from a printshop printer or a color photocopy. If you use a printout from your home printer you will get streaky color bleed when you brush on the glue. I have stopped the bleed quite a bit by spraying the paper with several light dustings of clear spray paint, or workable fixative spray intended for paper. Better, but still not great results.

2013-12-09T12:26:00.001-05:00

I absolutely love the art featured in ads and products by 'Angelic Pretty', a Japanese fashion boutique that specializes in making and selling 'sweet lolita' clothing. (they just launched their English webpage, Angelic Pretty USA). So when I found there coloring book I was very giddy to share a few pages.
