I love this, it makes me keep watching it over and over again!

Yes I sure am! Thanks

[@creativerahaf9771]

I just REALLY L❤️VE it!

Thank you 😊💕 We hope you have fun making your own version of Kira’s bush tent ⛺️

[@emsagchannel5090]

Wow!! The girl of the year is not even out yet and I am so exited for her. You are so amazing at crafting. I'm planning on making this. You deserve 10,000,000+ subscribers.

[@alwaysdolls]

Aww thank you so much Em’s AG Channel 😊💕 we can’t always get the big ticket items (since AG does not post them internationally and other sellers inflate the postage price) so we just craft them instead. So far we have made Lea’s Rainforest House, Blaire’s Farmhouse Restaurant, Joss’ Surf bus and now Kira’s Tent 🛖🐨🦘😀

[@wontstopcubing4761]

This looks amazing! 👍😊

[@alwaysdolls]

Thank you Amara’s American Girl World 😊 the tent was a super fun craft to make ✂️🎨🛖🦘

[@creativerahaf9771]

WOW!!! OH MY GOD!! that is exactly the same and plus it is so awesome 🤩

[@alwaysdolls]

Thanks Creative RAHAF. We saw the leaked Instagram pictures and just had to craft it. So glad you like it and our DIY tutorial.

[@hankdoughty4375]

I wish I had the room to put this in my room it's so cute

[@alwaysdolls]

Thanks Hank Doughty 😊 The tent is pretty big and currently dominates the crafting table lol 😆

[@SunnytimeDolls]

Your DIY talent is incredible and I am so inspired by your channel! Currently I'm working on some cakes using sponges from one of your tutorials, to get ready for my Doll's Valentine's Day bakery shop!

[@alwaysdolls]

Hi SunnytimeDolls 👋 Valentine’s Day cakes sound yummy 😋 if you are able to show pictures of your finished craft that would be awesome.

You nailed it again! Your creative work is brilliant! I really loved watching you make all of the components for this play set. I started a basic tufted headboard today. I have so many ideas for future projects !!!! Thanks again for the wonderful inspiration!

[@madysag1997]

Ikr! And only a tiny picture of this set was leaked and you could barely see it. And the way they recreated this is genius!

[@alwaysdolls]

Thank you Sparkle Craft Studios 😀😀 when we saw the leaked Instagram picture this was the first (but not the only thing from Kira’s collection) we had to make 🛖🐨🦘

[@alwaysdolls]

Yep that picture was so small and not very clear. I’ve since seen better images from the AG magazine for Kira and will need to do some tweaks - example the tent has side curtains too 😉

[@beachvibes4148]

@@alwaysdolls Yes it is sooo cute! I probably won’t be making it though because I don’t have the thick foam board and Foam works cutter. Where do you get your thick foam board? This is such a great craft! Your videos are amazing!

[@alwaysdolls]

We get our foam board from Excersley Art and Craft store but many USA crafters buy it from Michael’s. Also you could substitute foam board with cardboard just try to cut a few of each piece (stack and glue together) for the needed strength.

[@jesuslover3772]

All of the crafts are simply amazing! I remember when my sister and I made Josse’s Surfs van! It was so fun and when ever I watch it it brings so many good memories! Thank you for great videos!

Awesome! Can’t wait! From the picture it kind of reminds me of Lea’s treehouse thingy

[@alwaysdolls]

Hi Nomie Dolls 👋 yes Kira’s tent is kind of a blend between Lea’s Rainforest House and the Truly Me Camp Hangout. We made our measurements big enough so the doll can stand up when inside (not sure if that’s how it really is so will find out on Jan 1st)

[@MultiDonna2010]

Please tell me what size foam you use? How thick is it?

[@alwaysdolls]

Hi Donna Batiuk, for each section (Tent, Decorative Fence, Washstand, Bed, Ottoman) it is written on the cut list if the piece is 10mm or 5mm thick foam board. Hope that helps.

[@madysag1997]

Once we get more pictures on January 1st, could you guys make Kira’s veterinarian set

[@alwaysdolls]

Great idea 💡

[@princessaria]

Thank you for this! One of my friends used her daughter’s old tent as a cat house and I wanted to find a way to make something similar for my kitties (but couldn’t justify the $375+ cost for a used one lol).

[@alwaysdolls]

Hi K J - Aria 👋 what a creative idea for a cat bed, we would love to see pictures of your craft when you are finished 😀👍🏼

[@creativerahaf9771]

I would like to ask if you see other tutorials about how to make these awesome crafts or do you figure it out yourself????

[@alwaysdolls]

Hi Creative RAHAF 👋 I tend to use foam board techniques that have worked for me in the past when crafting then try out new ideas or materials to suit the project. Totally Rudy and MyFroggy Stuff are our all time favourite channels

[@creativerahaf9771]

Oh yes I know those two channels

[@PrincessaMij]

Only problem is able to find this size of foam board. Most place only 20x30 inches. Where do you find that?

[@alwaysdolls]

We purchased our foamboard from Riot Art and Craft supplies. If your boards are not big enough you can always patch two together - the seam won’t be seen since the floor is covered. Hope that helps ✂️🎨😊

[@BluetideAG]

WOW! This is so cool! How did you make it based on just insta pics??!

[@alwaysdolls]

Hi BluetideAG 👋 when we saw the picture the tent looked like a mix of Lea’s Rainforest House and the Truly Me Camp Hangout - so I just merged the two previous items to come up with this version for Kira 😀🛖🐨🦘

[@BluetideAG]

@@alwaysdolls thats so cool!

[@meshellejackson138]

I don't know why it didn't occur to me to use elmers glue on my foam board! Thank you for this tip! Hot glue always messed with my measurements!

[@alwaysdolls]

Hi MeShelle Jackson 👋 yes liquid glue works really well especially if you need time to position a tricky section or don’t want the added bulk that hot glue can make on a doll scaled project. Have fun crafting ✂️🎨😀🐨🛖

[@PrincessaMij]

Where can I find the print list of measurements?

[@alwaysdolls]

Hi Princessa Mij 👋 we have put screenshots of the cut list through out the tutorial as we craft. Part A is the tent and columns, Part B is the decorative fence, Part C are the stairs and stumps then Part D is the washstand, bed and ottoman. Hope this helps 😀

[@donnalandreth589]

Do you have the stencil for the leaf shapes. I am not a drawer.😂

[@alwaysdolls]

Hi Donna Landreth 👋 I wasn’t able to source a stencil from my local craft shops but I’m sure there is one out there as I see them on card making videos (brands like Simon Says Stamps/Gina K/Tim Holtz). Hope that helps
