Are you looking for a fun Disney’s Cinderella Themed Craft to do with your kids?
I have always been intrigued by the story of Cinderella. This classic tale has been retold countless times over the centuries (yes I mean centuries for the oldest recorded version is over 1000 years old) in almost every culture. Disney’s Cinderella is inspired by the French version recorded by Charles Perrault who wrote it 1697 fairy godmother and glass slippers. I love Disney’s Cinderella (especially the newer live-action one) and thought it would be fun to share this Cinderella Paper Doll Craft. You can make with your daughter to enjoy while watching the movies.
All you need is some paper, scissors, glue, pencil, and sharpies to make this adorable paper doll. You can make it now using the tutorial below or pin this tutorial to your DIY Disney board on Pinterest to make later.

Instructions
Step -1:
Select yellow paper, 2 or 3 different shades of blue paper and a paper for the skin tone of the Cinderella paper doll. Trace the half body pattern ((from the template available here) on the paper selected for the skin, trace the hair pattern on the yellow paper; and trace the dress patterns on the selected blue papers. Cut out the traced patterns nicely.
Step -2:
Cut a slit along the marked line inside the hair pattern.
Step - 3:
Slide the top end of the head part through the slit from the bottom side
of the hair. Apply glue to fix the head and the hair together. Attach the
headband pattern between the bun and the hair parts. Attach the small strip on
the neck.
Step - 4:
Attach the top dress pattern on the body part.
Step - 5:
Attach the B like pattern along any one side of the rectangle pattern.
Keeping the straight sides of both pieces aligned.
Step - 6:
Create small and even accordion folds on the rectangle paper.
Step - 7:
Bring the width of either side of the accordion
folded paper to the width of the body and attach it right below the top pattern
of the dress. Use a marker to draw the eyes, nose and mouth of the paper
Cinderella doll to complete the craft.
I love how this Cinderella Paper doll turned out. Paper dolls can be so fun to play with as kids, and cost a whole lot less than physical dolls. They evoke the imagination and if they are destroyed you can make another one.
