If you delve deeply, then almost every one of us in the house will find a mass of various shreds, rags, old tights, stockings, socks. We add here the buttons that are lying around, trimming the ribbons, and the rest of the lace that came from where. Many periodically collect such scrap and simply throw it away. However, this is not the only way to get rid of trash. Sometimes these supposedly unnecessary things make amazing toys.
Amazing doll
You still can’t believe that something worthwhile will come out of junk? Then try to make a
doll from nylon tights. You will be surprised how lively and touching the toy will come out. Your child will like her no less, and maybe even more than her dear "store" sister.
You will need the ability to hold a needle with a thread in your hands and the desire to create. There shouldn’t be any problems with the basic material - old stockings or pantyhose are sure to be found in any women's wardrobe. In addition to them, it is necessary to prepare a little synthetic winterizer or synthetic winterizer, foam rubber, wire, a long needle, buttons, bright shreds. Instead of the wire from which the frame of the toy bends, you can take a plastic bottle.
Start to create
The material has been prepared. The question now is how to make a doll from nylon tights. Let's look at the process using the example of creating the simplest “beauty” in the Russian style. Why the simplest? That's because we don’t have to bother with the wire frame. It will be replaced by a plastic bottle with a narrow "waist".
Do not immediately rush headlong into work; first, sketch a sketch indicating all the necessary sizes. So you will clearly see how to make a doll. According to measurements, a head is formed of nylon tights. On the future face we make a nose. To do this, we need a small piece of synthetic winterizer or synthetic winterizer. Putting stuffed material in the right places, we achieve the appearance of cheeks, forehead, eyebrows. With a needle, we tighten the nylon in those places where we will have eyes. Slowly we continue to fill our head, trying to achieve a neat, smooth ball. In the final, we plant the resulting "semi-finished product" on the neck of the bottle. Tighten the neck with a kapron patch.
Getting to the calf. A little about how to make a doll from nylon pantyhose soft. Hardly holding hard plastic is unlikely to be nice. Wrap the bottle evenly with a thin layer of foam. If there is no such thing on the farm, then the synthetic winterizer remaining at the disposal will fit perfectly. Now you can sheathe "carcass" nylon.
If you do not have sufficient experience, then for handles two tubes sewn from the remains of pantyhose completely filled with the same favorite padding polyester are quite suitable.
For advanced masters who have already more or less figured out how to make a doll out of nylon tights, one can propose to form real pens with fingers. To do this, you need to take the wire, cut off from it two long twigs (do not forget to check the sketch in order to clarify the size of the hands) and ten short pieces (fingers). We wrap small segments to twigs. Each tiny finger is wrapped with thin stripes of padding polyester, then we make a soft palm, smoothly switching to the pens themselves. Then we sheathe the entire frame with a nylon cloth.
Bringing beauty
The resulting little body can hardly be called beautiful. It is necessary to complete the face: sew on eyes from a button, embroider a mouth, put a blush on (your usual cosmetics hold well on a capron). From woolen threads we build a hairstyle - a bang, pigtails. We sew a bright sarafan and a shirt. Tie the scarf. All is ready.
Making dolls out of tights is an exciting activity. Having mastered it, you will feel the desire to create further, coming up with more and more amazing images.
