CLOTHES PEG DOLLS.
Little dolls and mascSts made from clothes pegs are such fun to make. Pretty crinkly paper (one penny a roll), odd bits of silk or ribbon give charming results. Figures A and B show how to arrange dollies’ arms (wound round the neck of the peg) ; these are made from one of daddy’s pipe-cleaners; as the foundation is wire, they can be twisted about in all sorts of positions. Figure L, is the brim of the little boy’s hat, made from cardboard with
the aid of a pair of compasses, and the inside black cut away. Now from this little brim you will find you can make every kind Of hat. The little girl must have pretty hair. I am sure mummy will find you some cotton wool or pieces of knitting wool to show beneath the crinkly paper hat I know you will have no difficulty in making little suits and dresses, they are so simple to stick and sew together, and can be made from any odd scrap of material.
