I really like this one.I'm not sure I could come up with this so good job. I also want to wish you and yours the best of the Holiday Season. Take Care.
Talk about serendipity!!!! I've been working in my mind for ages on constructing the same thing and then I came across your video. Even more hillarious..I have a tonne of old cos I've been saving for years (with the intent if someday upcycling them into something..you know the creative mind 😉)...so when you said cds..I just laughed and knew it was meant to be. Wonderful video..really enjoy your channel. Thank you for sharing..now I can finally sleep 😅
Thanx for watching! So glad the "planets aligned!" 😄 I know what you mean about finally sleeping ~ I often get an idea that I have to "sew out of my system" so my mind will stop churning it over & over!
Thank you, Missy! You're awesome to share this with your peeps. I am new to the doll world and needing stands which as you said are getting very expensive.
Love this!! I just got 47 monster high dolls from a thrift shop for cheap but there were NO stands!! Luckily I have plenty of old cds and hangers. I guess I need to get to work lol
I love this tutorial. but why do we need to glue the CD to the cardboard? they arent that heavy. would maybe balsa wood work or something else? or? you could also cut the pipe with an xacto knife razer saw. its very small and better than a stead knife.
I also like the saddle doll stands. The clothes hang better on the dolls. I have been rolling the idea over in mind thinking there must be someway to make your own. I wa thinking a round piece of wood and a wood doll ( not sure how that is spelled round piece of wood, anyway. Then your video came up. I am 85 years old and not sure I have the strength to do what you did, but may give it a try. Why do you recommend a plastic coated hanger as versus just a wire hanger? Does it have more stability? Enjoyed your presentation.
Thanks! No, I don't have a printed list of supplies. I do have a follow up video to see how a larger stand would work. In that video, we see that the taller stand could work for SD size dolls that are made of plastic, but might not be suitable for taller, heavier, resin dolls without using stronger materials and a heavier base.
I have a question I have a saddle stand for a large doll and while it’s great you can see the saddle part over the boys white tuxedo pants and I want to know how I can hide it so it sits under the crotch part of the pants but inside thanks.
Hi! I don't know if this would work, but if your stand can come apart from the base, you can add a small hole in the crotch of the pants, slip the post through from the inside, then place doll in saddle & pull pants up onto doll over the saddle, thus hiding it.
Very useful and informative video, my only suggestion would be to lower the volume on the music to match your voice as it's quite a bit louder which lead me to have to keep changing the volume on my phone.
Yes ~ this was a long time ago & I have since learned how to lower it. I no longer have all the original editing for this one, and it will be like starting from scratch to change, so it's on the back burner at present.
@@missysimaginings1 You might be able to do it within RUclips Studio's editor, so there won't be a need to re-upload. I will definitely be trying to make some of these stands though as the ones online are too expensive for large collectors.
Why don’t you secure the cd part to the cardboard part by waiting to fold the contact paper over the cd part? That way there won’t be a seem between the two parts and gluing them together would be the only thing securing them together.
I chose my method because I didn't want any raw edges of the Contact Paper on the outside of the stand. Over time and use, the edges can peel away from the surface. By wrapping the carboard and disc first before putting them together, all those edges are hidden inside. Of course, you can choose to make any adjustments to the pattern that would better suit your needs & preferences.
I got excited when I saw $1.25 but all materials used to create the item does not total up to $1.25 so I will be buying my stand instead. Great video though …
Somewhat irrelevant question, but I hope someone can help me. Do doll stands work for teddies/plushies? I'm finding that nothing turns up when I search for teddy stands, the most I can find are doll stands. But since I've never owned one I don't know how they work exactly. Do the grips expand to fit varying widths? Do they slide up/down for varying heights, or are doll stands for very specific measurements only? Thanks SO much for any help, I've been looking for something for my new plush for weeks and I'm STILL stuck.
I think for a teddy or plushie (especially one of any medium to larger size), you should look for a doll stand that can handle American Girl size dolls. These would have larger diameter waist rims that would work better for a teddy tummy. The wire waist rims wrap partially around the waist and then the back part slides up & down in the stand to adjust according to the height of the doll/bear. Hope that's helpful!
I just include an explanation at the beginning of the video of how the saddle type stands work. I also have a second video trying out & evaluating these on larger dolls ~ it shows the doll's on the stands. 😊
I love those stands, you can use velvet/felt adhesive paper to cover them, like this the doll feet do not slip.
Sweet! Thanx for sharing your tip!

@@missysimaginings1 our minds work the same. Going to the hardware today..you've inspired me lol.
Very well made doll stand. Nice work!
Thanks!
Idk why but I just love your personality and energy. I wish I could craft with you.
Thanks so much! :-)

Love this, you're incredible! Thank you! :D
My pleasure ~ thanx for watching!
This is so awesome and a great idea!
Thank you! Hope it's helpful!
Thanks for sharing. I'll definitely make some!
Great video. She's ahead of the time because these stands are getting quite expensive!
You changed my life
In a good way, I hope!!! :-D
Thank you!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍

Thanks! I just like the plastic coated ones so there's less chance of scratching my dolls or snagging their clothing. 😊
My new HID Rex was wobbly on even a saddle type stand lol. Not sure this size is the best for the really big and heavy dolls.
I agree. Will be posting a follow-up video shortly; I made a larger stand to experiment. I think it should have a heavier base & stronger post. :-)
YAY! Looking forward to it darlin'. Rex will be thrilled lol ;)
Thank you! Very resourceful use of materials! Just what I was looking for.
So happy you found it useful!
Brilliant !
Thank you!
i love it its easy to do
So glad!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. Do you have a written list of supplies?
Thank you!

I have a three foot doll and I want a stand to display her. Where can I look to make a stand for her
I would do a search in ebay or Amazon ~ but be prepared ~ a stand that size will be spendy.

That's the price I got when I added up what I spent for new materials, then divided it by the amount of stands I could get out of those supplies.
I can't find 1/4" cpvc pipe, only 1/2" Where did you find yours?
I got mine at Lowe's or Home Depot ~ can't remember which.
@@missysimaginings1 I actually went to Home Depot and found them. They are not online but very easy to find. :) Thanks.
@@HobbygirlDolls my pleasure!
The Video is incomplete. You did not show how you mounted the PVC Tube.
I mentioned that my camera stopped, so I refilmed & show mounting the tube at 22:43. It's where I insert the bolt and screw the tube onto it. 😊
I love this thankyou

Comment fait-on quand on ne parle pas la langue!!!!
I guess just watch the steps of construction.
I'm sorry... did I miss something--
You didn't show how the stand was holding the dolls
