Doll Craft: Make A Flower Crown For Ivy's Birthday!
Happy Birthday Ivy! To celebrate her birthday on February 28th, I had fun making this easy flower crown. It fits her 1970s style and looks absolutely beautiful on her. Here's how you can make one too!
Click the link or picture above to print it out. (Be sure to download and print at “Actual Size” from a PDF reader like Adobe Reader. If you save & print directly from your browser, it might not print at the right size.)
You can cut out your own foam flowers or use the pattern I created. Once you have the pattern cut out, place it on the craft foam and cut around the pattern to make lots of flowers. I made mine with groovy colors! ;)
Next, twist on the second pipe cleaner to make the crown long enough to fit on your doll's head. I had to measure the combined pipe cleaners around Ivy's head to get the right fit. After that, poke one end of the pipe cleaner through one of the foam flower. Pull it through and poke it down into the the foam once more. Continue threading on the flowers this way until the pipe cleaner is full of them. Then twist both ends together to complete the crown...and you're done!
I hope you have fun making a flower crown for your doll to join in the celebration! If you do, I'd LOVE to see! Feel free to send a picture to [email protected]
