Make a Hip Doll Mirror and Let’s Talk about Your Doll Space.

It is fun to create doll scenes.  With a few decorations you can create a lively and fun spot for a doll.  Today I have a simple craft  to make a doll mirror using craft mirror tiles.

Let’s take a look at the supplies.

• 1″ square mirror tiles (I bought mine at Joanns)
• cardboard
• hot glue gun
• velcro (optional)

Let’s get making!  Cut the cardboard into a 5″x 5″ square.  Glue on the tiles in rows until the cardboard is covered.  To hang, use a strip of self adhesive velcro on the back.  Use the second half of the velcro strip and attach it to your dolls wall.  Since the mirror is made of glass, hang it somewhere secure that won’t tip over.

Where do you set up doll scenes?  Do you have a doll house or premade doll rooms?  If not, don’t let that stop you from creating a space just for your dolls!  Here are some ideas where to set up a place your doll can call home.

• book shelf or armoire
• next to a book shelf (use it as one of the walls)
• in a corner of a room
• in a large box set on it’s side
• using foam core board cut into trifold rooms

Whatever you use, having a special doll space makes a fun place to play, store and display the doll scenes you create!

Then you can add little special touches like this mirror!
