Hello everyone and welcome to or welcome back to our blog, it's me Franco and in today's post I'm going to show you how to make a popcorn machine and popcorn for your dolls, I hope you like it!
First you need to measure out pieces of cardboard with the following measurements: (all in cm)
1- 6 by 5 (2 in picture but realised only need 1)
2- 3 by 5
2- 3 by 6
And cut them out!
Then, you need a piece of plastic which is 6 cm by 5 cm with a small square cut out central at the bottom, the size does not matter as long as it fits the scoop we will make soon.
Then, glue all the cardboard pieces together like this
Next, we added a layer of hot glue and glued on yellow beados. You can use any yellow beads, if you don't have yellow it doesn't matter.
Next, we got a glue stick lid and another lid similar size and filled them with hot glue and beados, we didn't have enough yellow so we used white.
Then, we painted over the beados in the machine and small containers with yellow paint, that is why the colour doesn't matter!
Next, we got a small piece of barbecue skewer and a rounded triangular shape of cardboard, the size doesn't matter as long as it fits in the hole in the plastic. We hot glued the skewers on to make a spoon to get the popcorn with.
We had glued the plastic front on the other side but forgot a picture, we painted all the cardboard red, but not the plastic so you can see the popcorn through. For the scooper, we painted the cardboard part red and left the skewer the original colour so there is a difference between them, for the popcorn we painted red stripes on the container!
I hope you enjoyed this craft, we made it as a present for Valencia for her birthday, she will love it! We would have added an image of it finished but it is still drying, if you would like to see Valencia open it stay tuned on our YouTube and Tiktok (we will post it on both) to see her open her presents! See you soon!
