| Basic steps for making doll sized fairy wands for playtime. |
To craft a fairy wand for your doll's birthday you will need: wire, skewers (for an 18" doll, toothpicks for a Barbie doll), beads, embroidery floss, masking tape, white school glue and a needle and thread.
- Shape the wires. Attach thin wire to the sides of the skewer you are working with using masking tape. Bend a shape above or around the skewer if you like. I bent a star for one of our fairy wands and a swirl shape for the other. I also slid beads up the handle of each fairy wand too.
- Wrap the wires. Use embroidery floss to wrap the wire and wooden skewer. Our floss was variegated with pastel colors: pink, blue, yellow, lavender and mint green.
- Thread beads around the wires. I then threaded a fine needle and attached pink seed beads in a variety of places on the fairy wand shapes. I even strung a few to dangle of the sides.
