Steps (6 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    today i had literally minutes to make something
    so i gathered up my ingredients
    and jumped in with both feet!

  2. 2

    ingredients:
    an orphaned russian doll
    a scrap of fabric
    some plain pins
    some fancy pins
    a styrofoam egg

  3. 3

    open up your doll
    cover the egg with the scrap of fabric
    you want to pull the fabric tight - i used stretch velour
    pin fabric to bottom of the egg
    cut of excess fabric

  4. 4

    pop the covered egg into the doll body
    i didn't use glue as it was a perfect fit

  5. 5

    load with a few pretty pins
    and you're done!

  6. 6

    this was so simple
    but
    i love her!
