ARIEL

  

 

ARIEL “THE LITTLE MERMAID”

 

This is one of many dolls that I have made over the past few months that are of the Disney© Princesses.  Ariel is one of my oldest daughter’s favorite.  To create Ariel with her fins, start by making “Doll with Swimsuit and Scandals” with red hair and blue accents on the eyes.  My design for Ariel is designed so that she can be changed from mermaid form to wearing her wedding dress.  Both patterns are here.  Ariel and The Little Mermaid is a registered trademark of Disney, Inc.
