Hey, beautiful people! 馃挆
Can you guess what I came up with today? It's a paper frock! 馃檶馃檶馃檶
A couple of days ago, I was sitting and wondering what fun thing I could do to make my free time more enjoyable. Then, an idea struck me鈥擨 decided to create a paper craft and turned it into a cute, summery doll paper frock! 馃憲馃帋
Material Used
- Paper
- Scissors
- Round cap
- Marker
Procedure
Step 1: Preparing the Paper
I started by taking a purple sheet of plain computer paper. It had some wrinkles, so I ironed it with a cloth over it to smooth it out.
Next, I cut the paper into a square shape.To get the perfect shape, I placed a round plate on the paper to trace a circle and cut it accordingly.
Neckline
Easy Tip:
To create a smaller hole in the center (for the neckline), I searched for something round but small. I couldn鈥檛 find anything suitable, so I used a toothpaste cap! 馃榾 This became the neckline, which I carefully cut into an oval shape. It turned out super neat and precise.
I also cut a small half-inch strip from the outer edge of the paper to give the illusion of arms.
Crimping the Paper
(The Fun Part!)
Now comes the most exciting part鈥攃rimping the paper! I cut another square piece to match the length of the upper chest and crimped it finely to create a pleated effect, giving the frock a beautiful, gathered look. And as you can see below, it turned out amazing!
Making the Trousers
Additionally, I made paper trousers. I took two sheets, folded them equally, and cut them into a curved shape. I then folded the top and bottom to give them a balloon-style effect. Tadaaa, here鈥檚 the final look!
Adding Glamour
To add some extra flair, I used a black marker to draw a neat border and buttons down the front of the frock. I also added some curved lines to the edges of the top and zigzag patterns at the bottom of the trousers.
