This is one of my JuJu, Charm Doll creations. It's 4" tall, has coconut shell button eyes, an oxidized copper bead for a mouth, and is wearing charms of its own: a Guatemalan worry doll and a silver heart. I used nubby silk and cashmere yarn for the hair. I've also made larger versions up to 14" tall.
I wanted to do a yard sale today but the March winds are really howling. Maybe next weekend. I need to make more space in the garage where I have a homeschooling study area set up for Marcel. No outdoor activities today so I'll go have a cup of tea and some biscotti while organizing the myriad of pages that I've pulled from magazines. I try to keep them sorted in folders by category like, "Kitchen", "Bedroom", "Garden", "Projects", etc. Do other people pull magazine pages, I wonder?
