Recycled Mesh Produce Bag Bathing Suit Cover-Up for Barbie

Barbie's ready for some warm weather! I've been saving mesh produce bags because I thought they might be good for crafting and have to say I think this Bathing Suit Cover-Up for Barbie turned out cute! Since this dress really isn't fitted it works well with standard and curvy Barbies. Cantaloupe bags are long enough to make a floor length cover-up, little cutie oranges (this one) comes down to below her knee. Some bags are a stiffer plastic and some are softer and drape more, the ones that drape are best for this project.

DIY Bathing Suit Cover-Up for Barbie Dolls from Mesh Produce Bag:

1. Simply cut the label off of the top, and the seam off of the bottom. That leaves a 'tube' shape.
2. Fold the top of the bag over about 2-3 rows, and run a ribbon through the second row of holes, use a long enough ribbon so you have two long ends to tie together into a bow in front.
3. Slide dress over doll, it will cover her bathing suit top and go under her arms. Scrunch/snug up the top and tie the ribbon.
4. Easy, breezy and cute!

Barbie says stop by the pool and she'll get you a nice cold drink😎
