  • Hi everyone, today I"ll show you how I've made two more cotton ornaments for my Alice in Wonderland collection.
    This is the second part, here is the link for the first part where I made Alice and the Queen of Hearts:
    • DIY Alice in Wonderlan...
    Here I'm using cotton in roll, this one is very common in Russia, sold at every pharmacy, but it's not as common in the US, so best is to order it online if you want to DIY such ornaments. Here are some links for buying this kind of cotton on Amazon (maybe you also have this kind of cotton at pharmacies, I"m just not sure about this):

    You will also need white glue, you can use school white glue, but you will need quite a lot, so better if you have a big jar of it. If your glue is too sticky and difficult to work with, just thin it with water a little.

    Here is the link to the set of exactly the same dolls as I've used (though you can use any cheap dolls you have): amzn.to/3pQfzwb
    Here is the link for the metal crowns I used for the queen:

    I can't help it be disappointed that you don't have more viewers! I'm going to keep sharing and I hope all of your subscribers do because you are something to see! The work you do is excellent but I don't think it is difficult it just takes practice and patience. The description of what you're doing is so well told I think anyone should try it if they're interested and creating crafts of real substance

    I am so glad you used the classic John Tenniel illustrations as inspiration. They are so much more interesting and elegant than other iterations of the Alice characters. This whole series of hand-crafted ornaments is just magical.

      @@yaderincrimin2973 yeah, then it's glue.. Try this: put an egg white into a separate bowl and moisten your fingers when you're holding the ornament or doing something with your fingers. Then you will not stick to cotton) and don't worry about how they would store, this is a very old tecnique from last century, people used egg white instead of glue then. I used egg white a couple years ago when smoothing the surface of two ornaments - they keep great, no smell or anything, so definitely worth trying. Some artists also use cornstarch homemade glue for these ornaments, it is not sticky at all. I haven't tried this, but can find the recipe for you, it's just cornstarch and water, nothing special)
