Turn the sheet with the doll's drawing on the skin-colored EVA and rub the scratch with the finger, taking care not to tear the paper.
So that the EVA does not get burrs, keep the scissors always open and roll the EVA in the hand, while trimming.
Use the same process for the clothes and hair.
Others, like the laces of the sneakers and the collar of the dress, become more delicate when done with glue in relief.
Call the child (ren) who will play with the doll: we are sure she will love doing the finishing!
Important: For gluing such small parts, use EVA glue, or even an instant Super Bonder type adhesive. Hot glue tends to produce unwanted volumes, beyond, of course, the risk of burning fingers.
Glue a magnet behind each hair and piece of clothing so that it stays on the body of the doll.
And the other dress (the pink one), cut in half, becomes a set of skirt and blouse.
The Box to Organize the Doll
Place the carton over the thick EVA, scratch and cut carefully. Do the same with the cap.
Cut out two pockets in the EVA stamped and glue on the EVA piece of the carton.
So that the pieces can fit in the pocket, the secret is to squeeze it slightly from the sides while sticking.
The larger pocket will fit the clothes and the round bottom for shoes, hats and other small accessories.
Glue two hot elastic pieces of glue, with EVA on the lid, to hang the hair. The two magnets mark the place to store the doll.
