Make a cross shape with your two sticks and tie them together with string. Wrap the Spanish moss around the sticks, starting at the middle for reinforcement, and going up around the head, down to one arm, back across to the other arm, back to the middle, and down to the bottom. The idea is to wrap the doll in one continuous motion.
Wrap fabric strips around the moss and make sure to leave some of the moss showing, such as on the head, at the ends of the arms, and at the bottom. Secure it with tacky glue. Make a face. Attach beads with the needle and thread for eyes, or glue 2 black eyed peas to the face for eyes. Add a button or bead for the mouth. Dress your voodoo doll. This step is entirely optional, but perhaps you'll get a feeling for who the doll represents. Voodoo doll is supposed to symbolize a real person or a spirit. Sometimes they are made to look like a person you know. In that case you should have some hair that belongs to that person in order to charge the doll with that person's energy. # yellow - success # white - positive # red - power # purple - spirituality # green - money # blue - love # black - repelling negative energy |
