WEIRD DOLL WEDNESDAY, PART 60

 

 

We're staying south of the boarder this week.  How sad that this one only has one eye.  The eyes look like decals and I guess the right one peeled off. Made of plastic.




BONUS DOLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Because you're all nuts for Frida Kahlo, I'm re-posting this doll I made my BFF for her birthday. I used a yard sale Barbie that was  dressed like a mermaid.





I sewed her hair up and added little roses and made her earrings .  Her eyebrow is a sharpie. I think she came out pretty good.

    You are clever, I love Barbie as Frida! I feel sorry for the one-eyed doll, can't you make her a cute eye patch? x

    Love the Frida doll!! I went to a Frida and Diego exhibition in Auckland with friends, it took them 15 minutes to look round and suggest coffee!! No thanks see you when they lock the doors and throw me out - was amazing! I'm with Vix - get the doll an eye patch, poor love...

    Frida continues to reside in a place of honor. I wonder if I should make her a Diego? ;)
