Have you ever wanted a doll carrier just like this (pictured to the left)? Well, now you can just follow these simple steps. The materials needed are an 18" cardboard box, some of your favorite fabric, a hot glue gun, a sewing machine, some Velcro, and some straps or ribbon as handles. Start off with the box it has gotta be 18" though. The crafter must have a lid that actually fits the box. The crafter must have an 18' strip of cardboard. Glue one one side of the lid to the side of the box that you want glued down (must be one of the long sides). Glue the strip of cardboard to the lid side that isn't glued down (the other long side not the actual box the lid). Let some of the cardboard hang down (that's where the Velcro will go to open and close the lid). Now if the crafter would like to see the dolls face, put the doll inside the box and cut a square hole where the dolls face is. Now here comes the decorating part. The crafter will need lots of fabric to cover the whole box so I recommend the 2 yd. fabric at Walmart. The crafter must pick their favorite fabric out. Remember the doll owner will be carrying the doll everywhere so make it nice. Measure the fabric and cut it to size of the front. back, and sides. Hot glue the fabric to the side the fabric fits. Cut the square out where there face is. Now cut the ribbon. One small piece for the handle on top. Two long ones that go on the back to make a backpack carrier. Now glue the small strip on top and the big ones on the back. Now the flap for velcro it may not stick if you have the sticky back velcro so glue on on the flap and the other where the flap will meet the box. Have fuj
