CRAFTS MATERIALS NEEDED:
CRAFT PROJECT INSTRUCTIONS:

(1) Gather all of the materials that you need to make this Leprechaun Bead Doll Craft. You will need to find doll head beads (or a bead that you draw a face on), pipe cleaners, pony beads, and play doh or clay.

(2) Take a green pipe cleaner and fold it in half like the picture above.

(3) Now put the doll head bead on to the chenille stem (with the folded side) and then pull the bead a tiny bit down and then stick the pipe cleaner back into the hole to hold it in place.

(4) Put the beads on to the chenille stem and leave a tiny space between the doll head bead and the pony beads. Fold a pipecleaner in half again and wrap it around the doll's neck once until it looks like the picture above.

(5) Now put 4 beads on both of the doll's arm.

(6) Now stuff the remaining pipe cleaner into the last pony bead to hold them in place.

(7) Now separate the bottom pipe cleaners into 2 legs.

(8) Now put 4 beads on each leg.

(9) Now stuff the remaining pipe cleaner into the last pony bead to hold them in place.

(10) Now use the play doh or clay to make a leprechaun hat.

(11) Stick the leprechaun's hat on top of the doll's head. Now use the orange play doh to give the leprechaun a beard. Now your Leprechaun is finished. Give it to a loved one, a friend, or just keep it for yourself. Happy Saint Patrick's Day.

CHANGES TO ARTISTS HELPING CHILDREN - PLEASE READ
Artists Helping Children is No Longer Acting as a Nonprofit Due to the New Provisions of The Pension Protection Act of 2006 Passed on August 03, 2006. We Are No Longer Accepting Donations of Any Kind. We are Currently Keeping This Site Up As Is and Will Continue to Post Information on Any Updates to the Status of Artists Helping Children. The Site Still Has a Wealth of Information and Can Still Be Used as Such. We Are Obviously Deeply Distressed Over This Provision That Was Secretly Included In This New Law and We Were Taken by Complete Surprise. We Hope in the Future That We Will Be Able to Change the Status of Our Organization so That We Can Once Again Resume Our Help to Children. Thank You Very Much to Everyone Who Has Worked With Us So Hard Up Until Now. Please Continue to Use This Site for Free Coloring Pages / Printouts, Arts and Crafts Project Ideas, and as a Resource for Childrens Art Articles, etc. Don't worry, All donations of items that were sent to us will still be sent to hospitals and shelters, etc. All recent checks sent to us will be mailed back to you. Thanks.
