New singular pieces from your old dolls.
Some weeks ago snooping on internet,I found some interesting pieces of jewelry made of barbie parts,I liked the idea so I start to ask myself how can I DIY that? and this is what I come up with,by this time I´ve done several pieces,earrings,rings, a brooch and it´s always basically the same procedure with minor modifications depending on what do you want,you can paint it with pastels or nail varnish,great as gifts,homemade is always better and personalized,this holydays don´t buy, D.I.Y.!!!
