Materials

  • 1 wooden peg doll (10–12 cm tall) or bead and stick combo
  • 30 cm of pink ribbon (0.5–1 cm wide)
  • 10 × 10 cm piece of white mesh or lace for wings
  • 20 × 15 cm piece of pink tulle fabric
  • 1 small bow or ribbon flower
  • Small piece of glitter paper or bead for wand tip
  • Hot glue gun or craft glue
  • Fine marker or paint for the face
  • 1 toothpick or 10 cm skewer for the wand

Instructions

  • Begin by painting or drawing the doll’s face with gentle features including two eyes, a small smile, and blush if desired. Then allow it to dry fully.
  • Cut a strip of pink tulle long enough to wrap twice around the doll’s lower half. Then gather it at the top and glue it in place to form a fluffy skirt.
  • Use the pink ribbon to create a waistband. Wrap and glue it around where the skirt meets the upper body, tying a neat bow at the back.
  • Cut two identical wing shapes from mesh or lace. Then attach them carefully to the back with a drop of glue, adjusting until they sit evenly.
  • Decorate the wand by gluing a bead, bow, or glitter paper star on the end of the toothpick. Place it gently in one of the fairy’s hands.
  • Add a ribbon bow to her hair or the top of her head for a final magical touch.
