Craftster user carrieme of Sew Very Carrie made a Waldorf-style doll using items from the dollar store. Today’s the first day I’ve heard of Waldorf dolls, and this Craftster post is the second mention I have come across of them!

Look at the dolly’s adorable socks and mary jane shoes!

Project Estimate for doll:

1 pair trouser socks $1
1 pair pink tights $1
1 bag cotton balls $1
1 skein acrylic yarn $1

Doll total: $4

Project Estimate for clothes:

1 baby onesie
1 baby dress
1 plastic bead kit

Clothing total: $3

Here are some nice instructions for making a Waldorf doll.

And some more instructions for forming the distinct Waldorf head.

great idea, however, isn’t the idea behind waldorf dolls to use all natural materials?
cottons, wools, great… not so sure about acrylic, plastic…aren’t the dolls supposed to be filled with wool?
just curious if the design is being used for traditional waldorf play?

It is perfect for spring and with all the grey, damp, snowy weather we’ve had in West Virginia, I could use something to brighten my days. I bought some ribbon. [...] […]
Tee Dress Fail
Half of the fail in this tee dress is just my body shape/size… I’ve been wanting for eons to make this tee dress from this video tutorial at threadbanger. EONS. So I finally did it tonight, after having some unexpected time on my hands due to the snowstorm. Well, it is certainly easy enough to do. [...] […]
Knot a Flower
Hmmmm, I am beginning to see a pattern with my crafting fails. Whenever I try to make some sort of flowery doo-dad for an jewelry project, I crash and burn. Here’s my latest flaming inferno of failure. I had an urge to go all Martha and make a flower zipper brooch like I have been seeing [...] […]
