DIY Mini Lea RF Hike Outfit & Accessories



Just finished making mini Lea her own Rainforest Hike Outfit and Accessories! The outfit was simple enough. 


I drew the butterfly on the shirt in marker and made the belt and headband from ribbon. 


In the accessories set, the walking stick is a large toothpick that I colored designs on and made a handle. The snack bars and butterfly brochure are just scraps of cardboard and paper. I had already made the bug spray from two green beads, having mistakenly assumed it part of the Rainforest House. The binoculars are also beads, and I made the backpack from scraps of fabric and felt.


This came out better than I expected. My next project will be Lea's Bahia outfit and the Fruit Stand!

  1. What a cute project! I love remaking AG things for the mini dolls. I think the binoculars are my favorite. I'd love to see a tutorial for those.

    1. I took four black beads and a small toothpick piece and lined them up on a strip of black duck tape. The handles are made of narrow black ribbon taped on.

  2. I meant to add that the butterfly on the t-shirt is also a favorite. It's so nicely drawn. What type of markers were used?

    1. I just used whatever markers I could find-a motley assortment of highlighters, Sharpies, and Magic Markers.
