Mariah, African-American Ragdoll

Mariah, the Handmade African-American Rag Doll is now available in my shop on Etsy. Please see the sidebar for the Etsy link. SOLD

Mariah was hand painted using oil paints which were allowed to cure. I then hand drew her facial features and painted them in acrylics. Her clothing is upcycled and includes a hand formed bead on her scarf. She is about 30 inches tall. She has big brown light eyes and medium brown soft hair put up in ponytails. Her ribbons match her scarf. The doll she’s holding is not included.

All though Mariah is well put together I don’t consider her a toy. She’s more of a shelf sitter or welcome doll for a novelty shop or for the home of a fine art doll collector.

Hand washable. Continue reading ‘Mariah, African-American Ragdoll’

Handmade Rag Doll Plastic Bag Holder

Published on October 18, 2010 in Art, Art by black women, Crafts, Originals and Rag Doll. 1 Comment

This doll has been hand stitched and has a dress which doubles as a bag holder for ‘green conscious’ individuals. Her hair is made of soft brown yarn and comes down long to her arms but is currently twisted up. All her accessories such as the 5 paper flowers and gold trim scarf can be removed for a new look.

With peachy soft skin, big green eyes and beautiful brown hair this plastic bag holder doll will surely bring a smile to your face. Her dress is a dark reddish brown and cream checkered pattern. She’ll fit perfectly in a country or modern home.

The doll was hand stitched and her features were hand painted. The bag itself is a rescued item as are the flowers, buttons and ribbon for her scarf. Continue reading ‘Handmade Rag Doll Plastic Bag Holder’

Recycle Plastic Bag Holder Doll

Published on February 19, 2010 in African-American Rag Doll, Angels, Art by black women, Crafts, Originals and Rag Doll. 2 Comments

I wanted something cuter than a regular plastic bag holder  so I added an African-American rag doll with angel wings to a bag I already had.  The doll itself is hand stitched and hand painted. I painted her skin with burnt umber oil paints then allowed it to dry. She was heat treated then sealed. I then added facial features and hair from a doll purchased forever ago. I have to say I like the finished product. I think what I like about her is she has a slight primitive appeal.  I really like primitive black dolls but for this project I only wanted soft prim.

My plastic bag holder is currently hanging by the door so I can remember to return the bags for recycling when I go back to the store.
