Voodoo Movie Doll III

Maybe the last of the voodoo dolls for the film. I've been having a blast making these beauties. This little lady has suffered head trauma but it doesn't mean that karma isn't on her side. She's also had a run in with a vampire. I think it was love. Or something.



She is also sporting a medicine bag filled with mustard seeds. All dolls are stump dolls. They started out as empty dish soap bottles and then covered with fabric for the body and head, dressed and embellished with acrylic paint, flowers, beads, fancy yarns.
 

Here she is with her sister and mom is in the background. The matriarch of the family.


Can you imagine being in the kitchen or around the dinner table with these three? Ha, ha, ha!

Hi Wendy
These are fantastic!
Seeing the magic that they work in the movie will be exciting.
Happy Spring!
