Cute Old-Fashioned doll kit.

For Spring break, I went to Missouri and visited the Laura Ingalls Wilder Museum. At their gift shop, I bought this Corn Husk doll kit. it comes with 14 dried husks, string, and some fabric. it was a lot harder to put together than I thought because the corn husks are hard to manipulate and tear easily. They also didn't include enough string for the amount of mistakes that I made. SO GET EXTRA STRING. The directions aren't very clear and the diagrams are just simple sketches. But I did my best. they also give instructions for how to make the apron, but I just did it myself. I also wanted to make a little wig, so I did out of some scrap fabric and lots of thread. I have a tutorial for the apron.
