Day of the Dead Sugar Skull Doll with Coffin

                         Pretty in Pink


I had so much fun making this little doll, (she's available on eBay until January 5th!)



I sculpted her head, hands and legs from polymer clay, painted with acrylics,  and her body is poly-fill and cotton over a wire armature, so she is somewhat poseable.  She has light brown viscose hair adorned with paper flowers and she comes with a single pink rose.  She has a little pink glitter in her eyes.
 



Her dress is hand stitched pink and white gingham.  She measures about 4 1/2" tall and her coffin is 5" tall.  The coffin is wood which I painted with crackle paint and various acrylics and is lined with pink silk.  There is a glass window in the coffin so she can see out when you have her stored!
 


This piece can stand on it's own, or it has a hole in the back for hanging on the wall.
