How I Created a DIY Doll with a Hairband Dress Using Plastic Spoons and Cardboard

One of my favorite things about DIY projects is turning everyday items into something magical. When I stumbled across a video showing how to make a doll using plastic spoons, cardboard, and a hairband for a dress, I knew I had to give it a try. It turned out to be a fun and creative way to repurpose household items into a unique craft piece! Let me share with you how I made this charming doll step by step. Materials You’ll Need Plastic spoons (3-4) A sturdy piece of cardboard A wide hairband (for the dress) Paints and brushes (acrylic or fabric paint work best) Glue gun or strong craft glue Scissors or a cutter Decorative materials like ribbons, glitter, or beads Step 1: Make the Doll’s Base I started by cutting out a circular piece of cardboard for the doll’s base. This serves as the foundation to attach all the parts. Next, I glued two plastic spoons together—one for the body and one for the head. This gave the doll a sleek and balanced structure.
