Primitive Voodoo Homemade Virgin Doll With a Dark Side: Voodoo or Ju Ju Fetish

Description: Primitive Voodoo Homemade Virgin Doll With a Dark Side: Voodoo or Ju Ju Fetish Here is a wonderful little primitive homemade doll that has seemingly taken on a life of her own after having been discarded by her previous owner.I'm experiencing her as a virgin fetish doll with a dark side who is ready for a little Voodoo or Ju Ju. Do you have a use for her? *10" X 7" and well stuffed, wool felt. DOLLS, BEARS, AND PLUSH STUFFThings to Hug and Love Yes, I remember my favorite teddy bear with a warm feeling that has never faded. He was probably an ideal companion for me in many ways. I loved the feel of his coat and petted it as if he were alive. His glass eyes were lifelike and always kept me in view. And, he had cute ears to carry him by. But, best of all I could wind him up and he turned somersaults! Incredible! I don't remember who gave him to me but I do know my parents were relieved that their squirrelly little kid had something to keep him occupied.... There was a point in my life when I slept with all my animals (somersault teddy among them) and felt safe. At times I had about a dozen animals lined up and tucked into bed with me at night. Of course, my brother made fun of me (ours was not a Beaver-Wally/Ricky-David relationship) but I kept it up for years. Of all those companions it is only Teddy I can remember; I did not let go of him until I was married and gone. Rosebud, indeed.... Remarkably, as Portland Pandemonium grew and people became familiar with our sincere desire to help find new loving homes for peoples' treasures, we started getting calls to take on personal collections including dolls and/or bears that people had to let go, but did not want them to go to a common estate sale, or worse, Goodwill. For me, this took on the flavor of finding adoptive parents as opposed to foster care and fit right in with my shop's tenets of Reuse, Reduce, Renew, Recycle, Repurpose, Repair, Up-Cycle..... An excellent example of this synergistic process is taking place in my shop's Doll, Bears, & Plush section right now. Last year just before Christmas I got a call from a neighbor who had been giving me various interesting old items they were letting go of during a slow downsizing period. This time I was shocked to find that they wanted to give me nearly the entire doll collection that had belonged to their aunt, Janie Sturtevant, a famous International Grand Master Doll Maker in the 1980's. When I entered my neighbor's parlor I was overwhelmed: there were dozens of tubs stacked two and three high filled with dolls and doll accessories including clothing and parts. There were dolls Ms Sturtevant had made along with dolls she had collected, as well as dolls that were handed down to her through several generations in her family. It was like being in a museum. We have facilitated many adoptions and many more are ready; come visit and see who might be waiting for you... And, while visiting those lovely dolls, be sure to give some time to the many orphans like the ones below who have had a rough life and are hoping to find their comforting and loving Forever Home.... https://www.ebay.com/str/portlandpandemonium/Dolls-Bears-Plush/_i.html?store_cat=38704211017(Key Word: Sturtevant)We Will Scratch Your Vintage Itch Listing and template services provided by inkFrog
