How to Make Plastic Arms for Dolls

Plastic arms for dolls can be quickly made from small water bottles. The entire doll can actually be made from plastic by combining the small water bottles with a 2 liter coke bottle for the body. The small bottles will be screwed into the larger bottle to form the arms and legs. The entire plastic model will be then covered with fabric to present a more doll like appearance.

Things You'll Need

• Electric drill
• 2 liter soda bottle
• Four small soda bottles
• Hot glue

Instructions

1. Drill four holes into the large soda bottle. Drill two holes for the arms and two holes for the legs.

2. Take the four plastic water bottles and uncap them. Screw them into the four holes creating two arms and two legs.

3. Seal arms and legs onto the body with hot glue.

4. Finish the plastic arms by covering with tube socks.

Tips & Warnings

• Fabric can be used instead of tube socks to cover the plastics arms.

• This plastic doll will not be able to stand.
