Slipper Repair!!!!
Hello people!! Can you believe Christmas is in three days!!! My
Snuggly Snow Pjs from Christmas 2008 are my favorite thing to wear in the winter, but the elastic strap in the back broke. It was a clear plastic elastic, not fabric-y like the newer slippers. Last night Hannah went to work and repaired them for me. Keep reading for the how-to from Hannah (the human)!!!

Snuggly Snow Pjs from Christmas 2008 are my favorite thing to wear in the winter, but the elastic strap in the back broke. It was a clear plastic elastic, not fabric-y like the newer slippers. Last night Hannah went to work and repaired them for me. Keep reading for the how-to from Hannah (the human)!!!
SUPPLIES:
- Slippers with no elastic, I just ripped out the plastic stuff. The slippers were also quite dirty so I hand-washed them in cold water, combed out the fur with a fine toothed comb so it wouldn't mat, and put them on a floor vent. I combed out the fur every so often too. I wouldn't put the furry slippers in the washing machine or dryer as the fur might mat.
- Needle and thread: be careful with the needle, and my thread was a similar color to my slippers.
- Elastic, mine was braided, width is your choice.
- Your doll for measurements.
Gather your supplies!!!
The elastic was sewn in the corners of the slipper, that is where I will sew my elastic.
Sew your elastic into the corner. Do not cut the elastic! If you aren't sure if it is sturdy, Gently tug on it a few times. Tie a knot and cut the thread. It is OK if your thread in longish, you can tuck it into the slipper!!
See how the elastic is sewn into the corner??? (My friend had a party at a nail salon, and because we were supposed to get lots of snow, My band concert was canceled and I got to go. I got silver to match my Christmas skirt from AG that I got at the AG outlet store this summer for $18)
Notice the elastic is not cut!!
Put the slipper on your doll's foot and stretch the elastic around to the other side. Stretch it so that it will stay on your doll's foot, but cut excess, I cut the elastic past my thumb.
Sew the elastic into the other corner and gently tug to make sure it is secure. Repeat this process for the other slipper and you are done!!!
Enjoy the slippers and keep your toes warm!!

Infinity Scarf!!!
Inspired by the Spicy's Twelve Days of Christmas: Day 1 Infinity scarf I made my own. I think Hannah (the human) may need to reread the instructions to the camera as there is a lot of glare in the pictures!! Anyway...
SUPPLIES:
SUPPLIES:
- a scarf (doll sized) or knit your own scarf!!! (see below picture for length)
- a safety pin (a needle and thread works too but make sure you have your parents permission)
This is just a length comparison:)
I used a safety pin because I wanted to be able to take it out.
Just loop it around your neck for a cool new look. I wore short sleeves because I was worried that I might cook!!
Have fun with your new scarf!!!

Cherry Pepsi!!!!
First of all, I am so sorry for the delay. I have had a lot of activities and homework, although my procrastination is to blame on the homework part of it.:p Anyways, when I got the gel clings at Target I also found this Wild Cherry Pepsi.
It was $1 in the dollar section but this was a long time ago...
It is lip balm and it is actually quite good!
I was surprised that the cap came off!!!
It even has all of the writing! (not sure if this is good or bad)
Hanna (the doll) can hold it with some help from a clear elastic!
Keep checking back for more posts- I don't think I'll have much homework.
