Soothing heating wrap for aches and pains. |
You can craft a sock shaped heating pad to sooth away your doll's aches and pains, then heat it up in a pretend kitchen microwave. Heating pads like these may also be turned into cold packs by cooling them down inside of a dolly freezer.
To make a miniature sized heating pad you will need the following supplies; a white sock, twine, poly pellets, needle and thread to match.
Cut a long narrow tube shape from a clean recycled sock. You may have one of these in your sock drawer at home that has lost a mate. If you didn't, I would certainly be surprised by that!
Sew the long side seam shut with a row or two of very tight stitches or you could use fabric tack to do the same, if you do not yet know how to sew.
Then cut two lengths of twine into loops for each end of the heating pad. Insert one of these just inside of one end of the sock tube. Make sure that the raw edges of this sock are slightly turned in as well and then sew the opening and the twine loop shut.
Fill the sock tube at the opposite opening with poly pellets. Then repeat the steps used the first end on the second. See photos.
