How to Make a
Voodoo Doll of Someone by Jennifer Claerr
Make a Voodoo Doll of Someonewww.sxc.hu tabasco78Whether you believe in
voodoo or not, making a voodoo doll of someone who has caused you pain
can be therapeutic. You can make your doll look more like your enemy by
using a small photograph of him. The doll will also be more authentic if
you include real hair, clothing or personal possessions from the
subject. When your doll is complete, you can torture your victim in
effigy by sticking pins in the voodoo doll.
.Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions.Things You'll Need:
Two sticks
Spanish moss or craft batting
Fabric
String
Needle
Thread
Photographs
Hair
Hot glue
1
Find a stick that's about 6 inches long. Place it vertically on your
work surface. Place another shorter stick, around 3 to 4 inches long,
horizontally across the longer stick so that they cross each other. Wrap
a piece of string around the intersection between the sticks and tie the
ends tightly together.
2 Wrap the Spanish moss around the place where the two sticks cross.
Continue wrapping until the entire surface of both sticks has been
completely enclosed in moss. Spanish moss is essential to making a truly
authentic New Orleans-style voodoo doll. However, if you can't find the
moss, use craft batting.
3 Tear some fabric into long strips. Wrap the fabric around the voodoo
doll base, leaving some of the moss or stuffing exposed at the ends of
the sticks. Use hot glue to secure the ends of the strips to the voodoo
doll.
4 Make the doll's face look like your victim. For best results, cut out
a photograph of the face of the person you would like the voodoo doll to
look like. Ensure that the picture is about the same size as the voodoo
doll's head. Spread a small amount of hot glue on the doll's head, then
attach the picture.
5 Look at the intended victim to see how she dresses. Find or make
clothing for that is similar to the clothing she wears, and use it to
dress your doll. If possible, get an actual piece of clothing that she
has worn before and use it to make the doll's garments.
6 Add some hair to your voodoo doll. For best results, find a sample of
the victim's hair. If you can't get that, use feathers or get some
synthetic hair from a wig or another doll. Ensure that the hair is about
the same color and texture as the hair of the person you're modeling.
Arrange it carefully and glue it to the top of the voodoo doll's head.
Do not hot glue synthetic hair, as it will melt.
