My sister and I pick a theme every Christmas and this year the theme was Macabre. I made her a rag doll which I sewed from an old curtain. She was then died with tea to antique her. I ordered resin teeth (you’d be amazed what you can find on Amazon), which I sewed and formed into her mouth. Behind her button eyes is brown felt. Her dress was hand sewed from an old pillow case. Her yarn hair I knotted. She was then set aside while I splashed red and black paints to make her look a tad bit murderous. She was put into a box which was written: There is no going back. Once that was opened inside was a card that said: My name is Susie. Under tissue paper she was revealed. It was such a fun craft and my sister loved her.
