beaded safety pin dolls

When you get to the website scroll down and you will find a link to make either a large safety pin doll or a small one. I have made both and a picture of them is in my picturetrail link listed below my name.

I have bought the kit and have found out that the dress part is more dainty if you use 9 safety pins instead of what the kit calls for.
Also when you do the head and all take the wire that goes through the body and head and add a small jump ring then a bead cap and the pearl then the snowflakes and then through the center of the circle of beads on the dress and then separate the wire and add a starflakes that will not go thru the hole in the dress push the starflake against the top of the dress and twist the wire and there you have it. A whole lot eaiser.

____ jump ring
____ bead cap
_____ pearl for head
____ starflakes for body
____ take wire thru dress
____ starflake on one wire then twist tight agaist the top of dress to hold
Take piece of wire for arms and slide between the starflakes and twist and then add the beads for the arms.

Hope this helps.
