How to make
You will also need:
* Peg Doll Bases
* Acrylic Paint
* Paintbrushes
* Deep Box Frame
* Card
* Paint Marker/Fine Liner Pens
* Pencil
* Scissors
* Super Glue
Using a paint marker or a fine liner pen, add in the finer details onto the clothing, hair and face. Using pens for this makes it easier to have control over the thinner lines and smaller details.
If you're creating a family pet, details such as ears, noses and tails can be added using cut out coloured card and secured with glue.
Choose a background for your frame, this can be painted or made with coloured card. Cut the correct size by drawing around the wooden backing from the frame onto the back of the card and cutting it out.
Take out the glass and add the card to the frame.
Stick your peg doll family onto the card background using superglue.
For further embellishments, add your family name or a special message around your peg dolls.
