What I used:
- Left over straw from the hat
- Hot glue (because it was an experiment, you could easily stitch it to make it look more polished)
- A couple of pretty flowers
So first thing I did was stretch and break some of the fibres in the straw so it was easier to bend it to the shapes that I wanted.
Starting with a small spiral and fold the end over itself:
Glue in place.
Keep following the spiral around getting bigger and gluing along the way.
One it’s big enough to be the top of the hat cut and glue the edge in place.
Ending up with something like this…
Next it’s time for the middle part. Start by measuring around the circumference of the circle you just made. and form a loop of the straw, glue together!
Spiral it down until it’s tall enough, cut and glue :D
Something like this:
Now the last part before it’s all put together: the brim.
Again spiral it out and glue in place.
Now it just needs the top to be put on!
And that’s it! Much quicker when you’re making them doll sized XD
The view from the top…
And after adding a couple of flowers it looks much cuter! Mine looks a little dodgy with excess glue because I was experimenting as I went but I’m sure if you were more careful you could get it perfect ^_^
And that’s it! Quick and easy so your doll can be as stylish as you :D Do you guys want me to try and make more dolls things or do you all prefer people sized things?

ACEO Friday!
Seeing more doll things would be so fun!
You did a wonderful job with your Blythe!
It’d be so cute to see her in more outfits!
Thanks Mari! Ok I’ll try to make some more outfits :D
This is so cute. You should think about making some to sell- I don’t have any dolls, but if I did I’d sure want one of these for her!
XD I don’t know if they’re good enough quality for selling yet, maybe one day though.
I love your doll sized things (especially the miniyou). So adorable.
Thanks Rachel!
Great hat! I really want to see more accessories for doll :) Its like playing with dollhouse when I was a kid.

I like both; the people size things are more useful.. but your Blythe is sooo cute XD
Thanks Katie! I’ll definitely keep going with the real people stuff too :D
