Start by printing out your free PDF Doll.
Use a sharp pair of scissors to cut out all the pieces
Use an xacto knife to, very carefully, cut out the face. There are some really narrow areas here so go slowly being careful not to tear the edge. It will be more sturdy once you glue the face underneath.
Carefully center and glue the face underneath the cut out you made and tape or glue in place.
Apply the brads where indicated on the joints of the doll for bendable arms and legs (If you do not have brads, simply tape or glue the arms together.)
That's it! Make your whole family! Punch holes in the hat and add ribbon to turn them into hanging ornaments or gift toppers and have a ball! Great as a teacher gift, too!
