Abby's Wand

Here is the wand I made for Emma. It did not turn at all how I wanted, but I just lost my creativity when it came time to sit down and make it. I covered the dowel rod and the stars with a soft light pink fabric and glued it on. Then I glued a ribbon to the top. Emma didn't seem very impressed with it and has hardly played with it. Maybe she'll like it better when she's older. I also realized that this looks nothing like Abby Cadabby's wand on Sesame Street. Maybe I'll try to make another wand that looks like Abby's, but not right now.

Something crafty is a foot!

Yes, an actual CRAFT at Crafty Knitty Kitty. Amazing, I know!

Emma loves Abby Cadabby from Sesame Street, especially her wand! She got an Abby doll for Christmas and Abby has a little wand in her hand. It does not come off, but Emma has tried many times to get it out of her hand. So I decided that I'd make Emma her own wand. I went to Michaels and bought some purple and pink beads, some dowel sticks, and some wooden stars. I plan to wrap the dowel stick in a pink or purple fabric and glue it down, then paint or color the stars for the top of the wand. Then I'll throw some beads on it and she'll love it, right? Ok, now I need to get started on this, so stay tuned!
