Alter it Monthly - Dolls



Something different again.  On the site we had to use dolls in our art work.  This tiny head use to belong to a doll pick for cake decorating.  I cut all her hair off and then covered the entire head in newsprint.  I then decided to make her into a brooch.


I took jewellery wire and wrapped it around the head they way you would a bead.  I then attached a short piece of chain and this I attached to a safety pin.  To pretty her up a little I used two pieces of ribbon to make a bow.

I hope you enjoy this weird piece of art.

Check out some of the other art at http://alteritmonthly.blogspot.com/

Thanks for looking

Love
Michele

  1. Hi there. thank you so much for taking part and doing a "Doll" project. I love your jewellery idea with a dolls head and the mystery and possibly macabre style you've captured.

    With thanks from all at Alter It monthly.
