Every year I create a new set of vintage inspired, recycled and up-cycled ornaments for the holidays, here is another new creation I did to resemble the handmade ornaments straight from a Dennison Book or vintage holiday tree.
I made the doll heads from wood, which I painted and drew the faces to look like the vintage wood or spun cotton heads from Japan. Then I attached DMC tapestry wood threading for the hair, wrapped pleated crepe paper around a paper cone, attached head, aged pipe cleaner and kitchy vintage embellishments.
I kept one of the dolls for me, the other 3 will be in my artfire store or at Piddlestixs.
Hope you enjoyed these easy, fun dolls using recycled items!
Magic and Joy,
Lisa!
Aww they're perfect to top the tree!
