Here it is! My second string doll! Easiest than the first I made. No problems on the construction. Yeaah a punk one! Once I had the doll ready I started to create the clothes. I love punk style so...here it is. I used a pair of old jeans to make his trousers and a piece of black fabric to make a T-shirt. I painted an anarchist symbol on the shirt with fabric paint. I used a hex nut to make him a necklace. Finally I added a chain on his trousers with two drops of hot glue. The tricky part: the hair. I used a glue gun and wool. I glued the wool to the head making several inverted U-shapes and then i cut them to create each individual hair. Then I unraveled the wool until I achieved the perfect hairstyle. Thanks Jenevieve E. for this tutorial! Thanks to this I spent a very interesting and funny sunday afternoon!
