Tips for Painting Peg Dolls for Beginners By a Beginner - or "The Things I Learned the Hard Way" - Last December I got my first lessons in peg-doll painting from a friend who had been doing it for a while and was generous enough to share with me her supplies and the wisdom that comes from experience. A year later, I still think of many of the tips she gave me when I sit down to paint. And I've painted enough dolls now to have started my own mini store of experience-based wisdom. I'm still a beginner myself. Painting dolls for me is a crafty hobby, not a form of high art or a money-making endeavor. I know my designs will always stay simple. My techniques are rudimentary. But I've certainly learned a lot from just digging in and doing it. I thought it would be fun to share some of the tips I picked up from my friend and from my own experience as a year-old peg doll enthusiast. Maybe they'll help you avoid some of the mistakes I made and get you set to start strong! (ps - If I reference JoAnn's craft store it's because I think they have them everywhere, so there's probably one near you, and also because they're the only craft store I know of so far that takes unlimited coupons. Can't beat it. Any links in this post are affiliate links to products you can order off of Amazon. Amazon, sadly, does not take unlimited coupons.) (1) Use good paint. When I first started painting dolls I bought several bottles of 79 cent JoAnn's brand paint. After painting a few dolls I learned that cheap paint stinks. It can take 5 to 6 coats of cheap paint to cover an area evenly! That's ridiculous. Now when I need new colors, I buy Americana brand acrylic paint. It's more like $1.75 for a small bottle but it. is. worth. it. (plus... unlimited coupons.) (2) Use good brushes. Learned this the hard way too :( Cheap brushes will shed their hairs on your dolls. I'm not even talking super duper expensive brushes, just not dollar store brushes. The ones I've used the most are the Loew-Cornell brand. I've bought some multi-packs and some individual brushes and have been happy with most of them. Brushes that shed on my dolls, I promptly returned to the store. Here's a set I've been using for a while and they're holding up well... (3) Store paint upside down. I got this great tip from my friend! Not only does it make your paint box look pretty, but it makes it easy to see and choose colors. Also, it keeps your paint near (and in) the cap ready to use. (4) Work from the cap whenever possible. This is one of the reasons it's beneficial to store the paint upside down. When you're painting peg dolls, you hardly ever need a great deal of paint for any portion of the project. You can almost always get what you need right out of the cap. This prevents waste. Any time I've tried to squirt a tiny amount of paint onto a plate it always ends up being 10x more than I needed and it's wasted. So, choose your color from your upside down stash, shake it well, and then use what's in the cap or right at the top of the bottle. (5) Don't use glossy paint. In my experience, when using glossy paint it's harder to maintain even strokes and color, it gets gloppy very easily, it builds up in an unsightly way on the dolls, and it's harder than "flat" paint to paint over when adding a new color. If you like a glossy shine, wait, and use a glossy varnish, which is what I do. Don't use glossy paint. Just don't. (6) Metallic paint also gets gloppy. I still use it because some dolls just need a touch of shine, but metallic paints usually don't cover as smoothly and evenly as plain acrylics. Maybe someone more experienced than I has some tips for painting with metallic paints, or maybe there's a good brand to look for?? Input welcome! (7) When painting details and fine lines, use long, thin brushes. Learned this the hard way too. I thought I'd have more control over a short thin brush, but that's not the case. For fine lines and details use a long, thin brush. These pictured here are the Loew-Cornell Golden Taclon brushes in sizes 3/0 and 6/0 and the Loew-Cornell Soft Comfort brush in size 1. (8) Don't mix colors. Even though it sounds fun mixing colors till you get the perfect shade you've always wanted, there are two main reasons for not mixing colors. The first is cost - you typically waste TONS of paint when you add a little of this and a little of that to get a certain color. You're left with tons of paint on your plate after you've used the little amount you actually needed. The other reason is that you'll never be able to create that exact same color again, so if you ever need to make a repair or correction you're out of luck. You'll save yourself a lot of heartache if you just buy the color you want for $1.79. If you absolute must mix colors, try to save the extra in a paint container like this so that you have some spare set aside for repairs, etc... (9) Paint several (well, at least two!) dolls at once - you can still be productive while the others are drying. For example, I'll paint the facial "skin" of three or four dolls, and by the time I'm done with the last one, the first one is dry and ready for clothes. (10) Paint dolls from the skin, out. In other words, "dress" your doll. That means, paint the skin of their heads first, then "put on" their first layer of clothing and continue on to all the things that layer outward. I don't know how to say that more clearly, but you can see what I mean in the photo tutorial at the bottom here. (11) Use pencil to lightly sketch ideas onto the doll before you paint. It's not cheating! (12) Dry brushes well in between colors. Rinse and dry brushes well before dipping into your next color. Wet brushes can't apply paint properly or neatly. Gently squeeze brushes dry in paper towels or old rags. Don't twist or pull on the bristles. (13) Use thin coats of varnish to protect and seal your project. Thickly applied varnish can drip and dry bumpy. Ahh! After all your hard work you don't want that! Use a thin layer of varnish and if necessary, add an additional coat once the first is completely dry. Do the head or body first, wait for that to dry and then do the rest of the doll. I use Americana Dura Clear gloss varnish. Hmm... what am I missing? Those are the best tips I can think of for now. Do you love painting peg dolls?? (It's a bit addictive, isn't it?) What suggestions and tips would you add? * * * * * * Finally, to end here, a friend recently asked about a doll painting lesson... so if you can't come over and paint with me here some time (wouldn't that be so fun?!?!) I'm including a quick photo tutorial here. Nothing elaborate, just a quick visual step by step. Let me know if you have any questions! I painted Ruth from the Old Testament (for my daughter, Ruth) and St. Zita (for myself!). These two dolls took me three hours total. I love how Ruth turned out, but I'm already starting to plan when I'll have time to make another St. Zita. She didn't ending up looking like what I had in my head :( I prefer the dolls that are approximately 3 1/2 inches tall. They're small enough for little hands, but are big enough to paint details easily. These are the "female" dolls I like (though I use them for males who wear robes or religious habits, etc... as well). And this is a link to the "male" dolls I use. Supplies? Check. I panted the heads first. I painted the St. Zita's shirt and Ruth's "under garment." Then I painted Zita's skirt and Ruth's "over garment." I started adding some embellishments to Ruth while Zita's skirt dried. I drew on Zita's apron. and outlined it and started painting it Apron drying. I drew on Ruth's hair. Started on Ruth's hair. Added Ruth's head scarf and started on more details on Zita. Adding more details - broom and load of bread for Zita, sheaf of wheat for Ruth Few more details for Zita (flowers, rosary) while Ruth's wheat dries. Almost done! Just need to varnish :) Varnishing! * * * * * * And... here are some others I've painted in the past... Nativity St. Francis, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Sts. Clare, Kateri, Dominic, and Therese St. Vincent de Paul St. Jerome
Use our printable template or SVG file and photo tutorial to craft these adorable woodland animal peg dolls! Includes a bunny, mouse, and squirrel.
This past week both of my sons have been at the same summer camp together -- this is my older son's 6th summer and he is now a counselor, while my younger son is participating this week for the first time. The camp is run by an amazing woman named Robin who has been a science teacher for umpteen years, and each week of camp has a theme: Crazy Chemistry, Phun with Physics, Contraption Camp, Microscopic Monsters, Amazing Animals, California Creatures, etc... Basically, the curriculum is her own personal mix wacky, weird art, science, education and fun (but man! every time my son came home with an egg immersed in a cup of vinegar for that bouncing rubber egg experiment I'd give her the stink-eye). She also has an impressive menagerie of animals at home, so every week, no matter the theme, she brings a rotation of sheep, goats and chickens to pet, bunnies and baby chicks to cuddle, ducklings splashing in a wading pool, a turkey or peacock to admire, and occasionally, even a rhea. Anyhow, last year I gave Robin a copy of one of my books, and since then, we've been casually chatting about doing a peg doll project at the camp. Finally, we decided that, for the theme of California Creatures, we would do a monarch butterfly peg doll. So, here we go. SUPPLIES -- A blank peg doll base, any size -- A black Sharpie-marker (I usually paint my dolls however, for the purposes of this camp project, we decided that a black marker would be easier for the younger children to control. Feel free to use marker or paint -- whichever you prefer.) -- Thick white acrylic paint -- Colored pencils - black and red -- A tiny amount of black felt -- A millinery flower stamen (colored black with a Sharpie) -- A clip-art image of monarch butterfly wings -- PVA or other white craft glue -- Scissors STEP 1 :: Whenever I'm doing a project based on specific animal from nature, the first thing I do (or should do, at any rate) is look at photographs. Going into this project, I knew that monarch butterflies had black bodies, but it somehow escaped my notice that their bodies had white polka dots, too. It's a good thing I looked at some photos, right? Right. STEP 2 :: Using a Sharpie or other black marker, draw a large oval or circle around the "face" of your peg doll. STEP 3 :: Use your black Sharpie/marker to fill in all the areas on your doll except the face (note: you can use paint on your doll, but for the purposes of this camp project, we used Sharpies). Now might also be a good time to paint the white polka dots on the body of your doll. I forgot to do this and so added them later. STEP 4 :: Add a face to your doll. Pencils are easier to control than paint or even markers, and so children will usually have more success drawing a face on their doll when using pencils. You can see in the photo above that I like using pencils to draw faces sometimes, too. (Oops. Still forgot to add those white polka dots. If you haven't already painted the dots, go ahead. Grab that thick white acrylic paint and add them to your doll. Or wait until later.) STEP 5 :: If you haven't yet colored your flower stamen with a black Sharpie, go ahead and do this. Then cut a circle of felt, small enough to fit on the back of the head of your peg doll. Fold your millinery flower stamen in half and place a dab of glue on the felt circle. Put the bend of the stamen into the glue, and then glue the felt circle & stamen to the back of your peg doll's head. STEP 6 :: Use glue to attach clip-art monarch butterfly wings to the back of your doll. There are good clip-art wings here and here, or you can use Google to find many others. There are also some good choices for wings at craft shops; I used these die-cut, cardstock butterfly wings which were stashed in my craft cupboard. Something like this, this or this might work, too. Another idea would be to draw your own wings and add color with crayon, pencil, markers or paint. STEP 7 :: Look! I finally remembered to paint white polka dots on the body of my butterfly! This project would make a wonderful addition to lessons about butterfly life cycles, the amazing migration patterns of monarchs and the importance of preserving the habitats of these gorgeous pollinators. You can find lots of information at this website here, and for additional lesson planning, I think this book is particularly lovely. This video on YouTube is also quite wonderful. As you can see in the photos above, the children at camp today did a lovely job on their butterflies!
We love the versatility of wooden peg dolls, but have had a hard time finding readily available ones in a spectrum of skin tones. We naturally dye wooden eggs every year with much success, so why not peg dolls?! We also already have a lot of unfinished wood peg dolls at home and always try
This adorable bunch will bring hours of imaginative play to any animal loving child. Or, they would look darling on a little shelf in a woodland themed nursery or bedroom! Included are an owl, skunk, raccoon, fox, bear, deer, porcupine, chipmunk, and three little mushrooms. These animals are hand painted with acrylic paints, then double sealed with a nontoxic sealer. The owl, skunk, raccoon, fox, bear, and deer are 3 1/2" tall. Please note that the smaller items in this set pose a choking hazard for children who put things in their mouths.
