Mini Doll Monday Craft Tutorial: Mini Doll Skateboard




The pony beads that I used as wheels compared to an old Tech Deck.





I was going through a box of old things when I found a Tech Deck. That gave me an idea...


 ***Before we begin, please know that you are making this craft at your own risk. If you are a kid or are not allowed to use the materials in this craft on your own, please have an adult help you.***

 Supplies:
Duct Tape
Scissors
Sturdy cardboard
Pony beads
Glue (I used a hot glue gun)

 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 Place strips of duct tape on both sides of the cardboard. Cut out a skateboard shape. It should look something like this...





  Next, glue on the wheels.

 Now, you're done! Enjoy your doll-sized skateboard.

 If you made this craft, feel free to send me a photo.

 ***If you are going to sell or use a craft made using one of my tutorials on your blog, website, or channel, please leave a link to my blog in the description. Thank you!***
