String Voodoo Dolls!

Make your own String Voodoo Dolls!

Okay...let's start with a disclaimer.
I did this project with my 10 and 8 year old kids.
I thought this would be a fun kid craft...but it turned out
to be a little harder than anticipated...
so I ended up doing all the wrapping...
and they came in to decorate.

This would be a fun gift for kids to give their friends!
Funny little stocking stuffers too!

The yellow smiley face one is my favorite - so cute. About how much embroidery floss did you need for one doll?

Oh, good question! I used about 2 full things of floss. One for the body and one for the head. Thanks!

This is cool, I think even I could do it!

Thanks, and yes, I am sure you could do it! Part of their charm is they aren't super perfect--easy! :)

Thanks! We had so much fun...I kind of wish I didn't make them with my kids, I could have put them in their stockings! Oh well! :) fun all year!
